I've got him.
He's got floppy leg syndrome, and other posing issues, but overall he's not a bad figure if you can find him for cheap. I got mine when I bought the ML SHS Ironman for 10 bucks. So it broke down to like 5 bucks apiece.

Otherwise I agree with the others, wait for the new MU one.

Yeah I really hope it does or at least has a variant.

Your dios of course are the best on here and some of the best pics ever taken on Toyark, now that i've gassed your head up, you suck!

I hope they do another Ghost Rider for the MU line, tempted to get the old one, but I prefer the black leather jacket. But with the movie coming out next year, he'll probably have his own line come out.

I hope so!

I really want the new female Ghost Rider for my shelf alongside the new Venom.

In fact, they've topped my wants list now of figures I want to see made next to mockingbird.
Modern Military Venom
Female Ghost Rider
No Mask X-23
Mockingbird
Emma Frost
Modern Quasar
Rescue

Otherwise everything else I want is coming already. Well, what I want for now at least.

I really hope they decide to do a Ghost Rider 4 inch line. It'd be a great outlet for things like Vengence, Ketch Ghost Rider, Black Leather Ghost Rider/blaze, Female Ghost Rider, Black Heart, Mephisto, and whatever else they wanted to put in. Hopefully Ghost Rider 2099 to vary up the designs more.
Plus the movie series would only need simplicity like Movie Blaze, Movie Ghost rider, and whatever the baddy is. Then maybe an additional GR or two. They could really almost go pure deluxe line with it, and just give them all GR bikes, or whatever too.

Found the variant Absorbing Man today at Wal-mart. Still at a loss why they painted the pants a different color from the comic pack, as they had the perfect 3 figure combination from normal to Absorbing Man.

I can see Ghostrider pulling an X-Men first class and getting a couple Comic Packs. we would have heard if there was a line to this already. Would be nice. Maybe Black Leather Ghost Rider, Vengence, Blackout, and Johnny Blaze

Probably. Avengers is really overshadowing everything for next year.

I'm wondering what Hasbro will be showing with the new GIjoe film next year. You know they are going to do a toy line. I'm curious to see the Rocks figure cause I think his bald head would be good for Luke Cage. and would be nice to see what weapons and vehicles I can pass onto the other marvel figures.

I hope they find a way to repackage the Ashiko with bike armor for it.
I'm dying to get that thing into my SHIELD arsenal.

From Hisstank. So the glove is kinda like Thundercats Lion-O Claw shield.

I highly doubt GR will get its own line sadly :/ maybe a movie figure in the main line or a couple comic packs. But considering how bad the first film did then I cant imagine theyd invest too much money in it.

Agreed on this one. GR might get the 2 packs like mentioned and some minimates like they did for First Class.

Modern Military Venom - Yes
Female Ghost Rider - Yes and forgot about her, that would be awesome if they did her as well.
No Mask X-23 - Def.
Mockingbird - Yes but would have to get Hawkeye to compliment her :P
Emma Frost - Def as well!

Exodus · 10-31-2011, 12:45 PM

You know what Hasbro should do next, since they did Shield and Hammer files. Is do a Cerebro File next. That would be wicked, a cerebro helmet replacing the shield/hammer logo. I think X-Men next year's story line should be wicked with the ending of Fear Itself, although I don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it yet.

Boba Fettuccini · 10-31-2011, 01:24 PM

The X-23 wouldn't be too hard to make on your own... her mask is painted on, not sculpted, so that could happen.

@Exodus: The shield thingy is being replaced with individual character icons if I recall. Good idea, but that's not gonna happen.

JustryGT · 10-31-2011, 01:28 PM

It's cool that retailers were able to create shelf space for MU giants , sentinels and multi-packs. You would think they could sell one Ghostrider with motorcycle in the MU line and in time for the movie. I understand that they may not want to make an entire line like Captain America because GR may not be as popular with the kids or whatever.

That would be freaking awesome! Id love more Xmen they could def use it as a way to release either modern or classic characters.

Would still prefer hasbro do it. Eyes are a pain to paint.

Yeah I cannot imagine how hard it would be to paint 3.75 eyes.

Which House of M figures would you really like to see? I can't remember any of them being all that interestingly different, as much as I loved the series. Were you looking for a trucker-cap Steve Rogers?

Agreed! Really nice shot.

I have one in my BST...

Well his pants were altered too, so that they change as he does. I guess he never really has to wear clothes again...

You got your choices on Hawkeye.
The upcoming Ultimate one in the avengers line, the two pack secret wars one, the dark avengers single carded, Ronin single carded, or the upcoming Avengers Light up stand one.

I miss those files. I wonder why they stopped doing it.

from what it looked like it was to tie into the website that initially launched with the toy line. the website was never really taken care of or fully functional so they just stopped it all together.

Dark Hawkeye (Bullseye) is my stand-in on my Avengers team.. I cannot find the 2 pack at anywhere near a decent price.

Im not a fan of the Thor/Avengers Movie Hawkeye.

Maybe I will learn to like the outfit after Avengers hits theaters.
