Action figures are collectible items that can be earned in Champions Online. When activated, each generates a small non-combat pet that follows your character throughout the game. Their appearance varies greatly, and they often depict heroes, villains, or other creatures encountered during game play. They have no practical purpose or game play mechanic, and are purely cosmetic in design and function.

Several methods exist for obtaining action figures, and a player can earn as many as one wishes. Action figures are often numbered as part of a series, and all bear a designation of common, uncommon, or rare, depending on their availability within the game and the ease with which each can be earned.
