Series 4
Series 4 of the 7″ action figures are currently being planned for a 2009 release. The concept art of the figures suggests five characters including:
- Gabriel Gray -- includes wall clock, magnifying glass, snow globe, and scissors

Notes
- Heroes action figures were featured on the cover of the March 2008 issue (#127) of ToyFare magazine (available January 9, 2008).
- A limited edition Future Hiro figure, including the Kensei sword and sword sheath, was made available exclusively through MezcoDirect.com and Summer 2008 conventions. It is limited to 3,000 pieces worldwide.
- According to the July 2008 issue (#238) of Previews, Series 3 will now include a new "Ireland" version of Peter Petrelli (with two different tattoos) in place of Adam Monroe.
- Future Peter was on display behind Elle in Mezco's display case at the San Diego Comic Con, which would seem to indicate it is now planned as a Series 3 variant figure. Adam Monroe is now planned for Series 4.
