RAD ALERT! CONTRA Just Went Totally Tubular—Premium DNA’s “Maximum Payload” Figures Are Locked, Loaded, and Up for Pre-Order!

Grab your headband, crank the synth, and get ready to mash that imaginary A-B-A-B—because the classic run-’n-gun legend is jumping off the screen and onto your shelf.

Premium DNA Toys just dropped a big announcement: new “Contra Maximum Payload” action figures are officially on the way, aiming to bring the over-the-top, heavy-metal action of the original Contra to life in collectible form.

What’s the news?

Premium DNA is launching Contra Maximum Payload Action Figures, leaning hard into that iconic 80s action vibe—muscle, boots, and battlefield swagger included.

Pre-order details (the important stuff)

Here’s the collector intel you’ll want to screenshot and send to your toy group chat:

Free shipping promo: running through the end of Toy Fair (Feb. 17)

Why this is a big deal (aka: why your shelf is about to level up)

If you grew up with Contra’s blistering difficulty, iconic soldier look, and arcade-era attitude, this is basically a nostalgia power-up you can pose. And with Toy Fair free shipping plus payment plans, it’s set up to be a pretty friendly jump-in for collectors.

Contra is back—not as a remake, not as a re-release, but as full-on action figure firepower. If you’ve ever wanted that “movie-poster mercenary” energy standing guard over your collection, Maximum Payload is trying to deliver.
