Now that korg is being made I'll have to get around to a silver savage custom.

If they gave us a new red Deadpool there would be people lined up complaining they already have one and he's wasting a spot same as they will with this (or a Wolverine/Cap/Iron Man). People always find something to complain about. I'm just happy when we aren't stuck with a reissue like Yellowjacket or the GoTG wave. I don't feel the need to buy every figure anyway and I know that not every figure will be made for me. Now if they could make a proper Iceman in either scale that would be great lol.

I would have preferred the grey and black X-force scheme, but I think there would be a level of demand for regular red and black. So far red and black has not been made easily available and been put out of reach for some collectors. It started with the individual XMO figure which was rare to begin with and has become hard to come by, that cannon deluxe Deadpool which most people seem to not care for, the even rarer MU comic pack Deadpool, and a SDCC exclusive set. So I could see a level of demand for another go of the regular scheme, maybe just use the comic pack version instead to get that web gear version out again instead of the teleporter rig for the Nth time. When you look at the line Deadpool is one of the least catered to characters considering his preposterous level of popularity. i can't complain too much since I do already have the XMO Deadpool, but I imagine there was still a good deal more of people who wanted the regular Deadpool released individually rather than this.

They have to save something for the movie.

No, we're not into fists on characters that carry swords. Maybe a WWHulk or Skaar hand can be customized.

I don't mind Korg's 2 fists, the clip on shields work and you can always drill a hole for him to hold something.
What bothers me more is that Shanna only has one eye. I think it would be more comic accurate if she has 2 eyes. (I know her hair is supposed to be covering an eye but it just looks off to me)

ChuckSass · 02-15-2015, 08:17 AM

I wish Shanna had bare feet, she's barely Shanna

mdewater · 02-15-2015, 08:40 AM

Forgive me, I'm sure this has been discussed before but didn't find anything real recent. What are the chances we'll see another Vision at some point? Now that they're introducing him to the MCU he's bound to make another appearance right? I know it'd be blasphemy for some people if they just rereleased the same one, but I'd love to see it happen - or just a new figure altogether.

LOL EXACTLY !!!! Why should we have to customize something that seems like common sense...pay $10-$15 for a figure we have to drill a hole in the hand.

An Iceman with an all new sculpt would be the dream. I know they probably wont ever do anything spikey like AoA since they couldn't reuse the buck for anyone else.

The way they're making them with less articulation they probably could afford to make the head and torso spikey, downside being their commitment to less articulation. I hope we get a legends AoA Iceman so I can use him as when sinister Iceman got giant in Uncanny X-force.

Giant ice clones really open things up. The Iceman masher even isnt terrible to go with 4".

I just realized that if they make a new legends Iceman it could have swap off heads, one being his more modern spike head look or maybe something a little more classic, and the other could be his AoA spike head that doesn't have a mouth. I know I'd get that, Iceman was my favorite of the original 5, but I also really liked the AoA take on him turning into a villain. I also want a new legends Apocalypse, not a build-a-figure, but just a regular release figure. If they can release Hulk for Age of Ultron as an individual then they can do it for Apocalypse. Toybiz did one that way but it came out with bodily proportions like a baby. I want a new one though so I can put it into my MU display, since growing big is always one of his main things.

Finally Hellcat, once I finally find Bishop, I will just be waiting on Pyro to finish out my top 3 wants.

Iceman · 02-15-2015, 11:44 AM

A classic Apocalypse at about Hulk height would work.

Captain Nash · 02-15-2015, 12:41 PM

Yeah, that Hellcat and some of the other newer legends photos got mixed into the MI photos. Unfortunately I don't think there's a MI hellcat coming.

Can't blame Hasbro on that one, at least. Photo archive got mixed up. It happens.

It only happens on Toyark.

They do kind of look like up-sized from the 4 inch ones.

Couldn't of all just let me be happy, could you?

It's the marvel infinite line. Happiness is not factored into its production.

kylactus · 02-15-2015, 08:56 PM

ok, on the subject of other stuff that's coming out we can use... the DCU 3.75 line has some character I'm not familiar that looks like Holocaust (or Nemesis if your into that).

That is detective mode Mr. Freeze. Batman has a x-ray/infrared type device built-in to his suit.

Foreddyn · 02-15-2015, 09:08 PM

I think you mean the Mr. Freeze variant. I have the regular one, he's too blocky.

Kernel · 02-15-2015, 09:12 PM

That mr freeze in "detective mode" vision does look like Nemisis/ Holocaust. I was gonna pass but now I may grab one (still need an onslaught hasbro).

Looks like this rumor was spot on.
