Doctor Doom is taking over movie theater concession stands this December, and Marvel fans are going to need some serious shelf space.
With Avengers: Doomsday arriving in theaters December 18, Regal, AMC, Cinemark and Vue have revealed their upcoming collections of popcorn buckets, collectible drinkware and other movie merchandise. Doctor Doom dominates the lineup, with several theaters offering their own versions of the Marvel villain, while the Sentinels and other familiar Marvel imagery are getting collectible designs of their own.
The new merchandise includes everything from illuminated Doctor Doom statues and throne-shaped popcorn containers to Sentinel-inspired drink vessels. Several items are exclusive to individual theater chains, giving collectors plenty to track down before the movie even opens.
Regal, AMC and Vue have confirmed that their collections will begin arriving December 16 and 17, while Cinemark has announced that its merchandise is coming soon. Prices have not yet been revealed.
Here’s what’s coming to each theater chain:
Regal Cinemas
Regal is bringing three collectibles to theaters, including two exclusive designs featuring Doctor Doom and the Sentinels.
- Doom’s Throne Popcorn Container: A collectible popcorn container inspired by Doctor Doom’s throne, exclusive to Regal.
- Sentinel Collectible Drink Vessel: A Sentinel-themed drink container available exclusively at Regal.

Vue Cinemas
UK theater chain Vue is also getting in on the action with four collectibles, including another Doctor Doom throne design and Sentinel-themed drinkware.
- Avengers Assemble Popcorn Buckets: Collectible popcorn buckets featuring Avengers imagery.
- Stained Glass Throne Popcorn Bucket: A throne-inspired collectible featuring stained-glass styling.

Vue’s merchandise arrives December 16, making it the earliest announced release among the four chains.
The collectibles arrive as Marvel Studios prepares for the theatrical release of Avengers: Doomsday, which features Robert Downey Jr. as Doctor Doom. Directed by Anthony and Joe Russo, the film brings together characters from several corners of the Marvel universe, including the Avengers, Fantastic Four and X-Men.
For collectors, the biggest challenge may be deciding which version of Doctor Doom deserves a spot on the shelf. Regal has its exclusive throne container, AMC has its own Doom bucket and drinkware, Cinemark is offering light-up designs, and Vue has a Doom bust and stained-glass throne. With several of the collections launching before the movie opens, fans won’t have to wait until December 18 to start hunting them down.
Avengers: Doomsday arrives in theaters December 18, 2026. The collectible merchandise will be available at participating theaters while supplies last, with pricing and additional availability details still to be announced.
