‘Tis the Season for Red and Green Geeky Gifts!

By Sideshow on Dec 6, 2023

’Tis the season for red and green! When it comes to iconic super heroes, super-villains, and pop culture figures, red and green are extremely well-loved colors. Especially together!

Festive reasons aside, red and green are also complementary colors. The outfits of Poison Ivy and The Vision can attest to this. Green is often a character reserved for sly tricksters like Loki and The Joker while red signifies power, seen in characters like Scarlet Witch, Iron Man, and Superman.

Even fairy tales like Red Riding Hood and classic TV heroes like the Red Ranger get in on the color action! So if you’re trying to add some red and green to your seasonal displays, look no further than this merry color-coded guide.


Red Sonja: Queen of Hyrkania Print

Deck your walls with a Red Sonja art print that’s fit for royalty. As her subjects gaze upward in tribute, Red Sonja towers above, framed by a red halo. The Red Sonja Queen of Hyrkania Print by Julian Totino Tedesco shows that only those whose power is forged in red-hot fury are destined to rule.


Smaug the Fire-Drake: A Dire Menace!

Get fired up about your favorite fantasy fandom with the Smaug the Fire-Drake: A Dire Menace! Art Print by Jerry Vanderstelt. The artist brings this ferocious dragon from The Hobbit to vivid life in a print that will have LOTR fans running in terror (toward their walls for a closer look).


James Dean (Deluxe Version) Statue

He’s a rebel but there’s certainly cause to bring home this dreamy statue from a cult classic Hollywood film. Wearing his iconic red jacket and leaning near an old-fashioned lamp post (with light-up capability), the James Dean (Deluxe Version) Statue by Star Ace Toys, Ltd. is effortlessly cool. Just don’t tear him apart.


Wave of Carnage Art Print

The open seas are terrifying enough, but when you throw in a splash of Carnage, all bets are off. The Wave of Carnage Art Print by Mike Del Mundo is a spectacular piece of Marvel art showing just what happens when Carnage unleashes his murderous wrath. All hands on deck!


Phoenix and Jean Grey Maquette

We couldn’t talk about red and Marvel without bringing up Big Red herself, Jean Grey. And with her classic Phoenix costume, the X-Men’s mighty telepath infuses green with red in an inferno of psychic power. The Phoenix and Jean Grey Maquette by Sideshow is proof that every ending is only the beginning.


Green Goblin Sixth Scale Diorama

He’s Spider-Man’s arch-nemesis and he’s on his way to make some trouble! The Green Goblin Sixth Scale Diorama by Premium Collectibles Studio depicts Norman Osborn zooming through the air atop his infamous Goblin Glider, pumpkin bombs in hand and a trail of sculpted fire in his wake.


Classic Loki Variant Statue

As Marvel’s original God of Mischief, this Classic Loki Variant Statue by Iron Studios is a blast from the past. Clad in the trickster’s classic yellow and green comic book costume, this Loki variant is willing to do whatever it takes to achieve his glorious purpose — in this case, ending up in your MCU display.


The Child Quarter Scale Figure

Adorable? Yes. Mischievous? Also yes. Grogu™ is officially The Mandalorian’s™ responsibility now, which means he needs a loving home in your Star Wars collection. With The Child Quarter Scale Figure by Hot Toys in your grasp, the only thing that’s left is a Din Djarin™ to match.


Fjord – Mighty Nein Statue

Are daring, swashbuckling green pirates your weakness? Do you seek adventure by the side of a handsome half-orc who’s been known to cast a spell or two? Then the Fjord – Mighty Nein Statue by Sideshow is the next addition to your Critical Role collection. With Dwueth’var in hand, Fjord is ready to join your Mighty Nein squad.


Kevin Smith: Guru Askew (Dope Variant)

Dude, you know what’s pretty dope? The Kevin Smith: Guru Askew (Dope Variant) Collectible by Unruly Industries™ — not only does it pay homage to pop culture aficionado Kevin Smith, but this collectible is decked out in a mellow green tone. However, if red’s more your thing, check out the Red-ible Variant. To put it bluntly, this is a must-have.


The red and green party certainly doesn’t stop there! You’ve still got the friendly neighborhood red of Spider-Man’s suit as well as the stately green of Doctor Doom’s fluttering cape. Plus, DC’s Justice League is full of these colors with Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, and many other legendary members.
