In some respects I agree. Banshee & Forge are needs, as are the Brotherhood. But we get another Red Spidey, Captain America, or Hulk instead.

But then, I don't understand all the people who complain that we've got so many Iron Men, Wolverines, Deadpools, & Cyclops' despite the fact that we've now got most of their costumes, whereas people are always asking for more Storms, Johnny Storm, and another bloody Sabretooth that's a bit slimmer? You can't have it both ways, either we get loads of character variations, or we don't and you get one version.

technically we've never gotten a sabertooth in eather the MU or MI line only XMO, and there the comic version everyone wants was hard to get being he's only been available as an exclusive or with Blob.
I think a proper re-do is in order, I just happen to prefer his old look. I just get peeved when I have a mismatched team from different realities, eras, or teams! sorry but you don't have a 90's X team without Storm in white! and who plans to stand Halo Gamora in with there Guardians and be 100% satisfied? your list is Chick heavy, with Hasbro's MO of releasing one woman every two waves by 2056 your dreams will come true, Civilians ( Bruce, Ross) won't go over with the kid market no one wants to be the powerless old man, hell give they should us an emaciated Steve Rodgers!

That's the tricky part Thing's head is not removable, I know mine isn't great, but it is frustrating knowing that in a month or two I will replace it with a cheaper version of the exact same mold, but it will have a proper head and harness....

So how'd did you do urs??

[K Dubious]

I just molded the top of Thing's head, it is the one with the huge eyebrows. I tried to mold up to the eyebrow, but it was difficult to not make it look like a helmet. Then I dremeled the rock design to try and match the design on the figure which was not easy.

OK so I guess I need to change my previous post to I have an extra thing figure I'm looking to get rid of.lol.

I agree with all these lists. I would also like Angela, some MCU (or comic version) bad guys like Ronan, Yellowjacket, Alexander Pierce, Nebula, Ultron etc. And why not get some reuse out of the re-releases like Hasbro loves to do like a Silver Savage, Maestro, Old man logan, Death's head II, green Phoenix, horror capwolf/zombies, rest of squadron supreme, and release that Igor armor

Could you imagine the Avengers changing their name to "the really really good guys" :-)

I used to think it was dumb but I watched a 30 for 30 on the "Bad Boy" Detroit Pistons and it was really interesting. They said they tried to avoid that "Bad" label that others had given them and finally gave up and embraced it and they said it was empowering. I rationalize the Brotherhood of evil mutants by saying that society labeled them as evil, and instead of fighting that label they just embraced it. Magneto was a terrorist to friends of humanity, but a freedom fighter to mutants.

Classic Venom
Shocker
Lizard
Strucker
Master Man (literally never ever going to happen without a costume change)
Modern Loki
Sgt Fury
Anti Venom
Ragnarok (post acquisition of his own Mjolnir)
U.S. Agent
Maria Hill
Victoria Hand
Death Adder
Jack o Lantern
Mephisto
Blackheart

Are all characters that I would buy if they were released in the main MU/MUI line with proper articulation. There are more, but those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head. Some of them obviously have gimmicky versions from sub lines and movie lines, but I want the real deal with super articulation.


Fat chance of it happening, especially since some of them aren't around any more.

[K Dubious]

This is from my Where's the Shadow thread, but I feel like it is a cool pic and wanted to share it. If you want to play along there are 3 bottles, a tiny baby, a bag, and a Lego Sonar gun, plus Marv of Course.

[Foreddyn]

Well, is SKURGE going to be delayed yet again? I still want the Igor armor too. I'm surprised no one has mentioned Quicksilver either. And since I am trying to get more bad guys, yes, bring on the villains! Although I highly doubt we would ever get either the Nasty Boys or Morlocks.

I do appreciate more of the Spider-men that we are getting. But honestly, I'm just waiting for cheap bucks to get started on customs-especially female bodies.

I just followed your recipe and did this myself. It's amazing how much better the figure looks now.

EDIT: I just realized, by doing this mod I've now effectively replaced all the sad first incarnations of Marvel Universe characters on this buck with superior versions:

Moon Knight -- Custom made one by swapping parts onto a slightly repainted new body Punisher.
Daredevil/Bullseye/Magneto -- Hasbro did that for me.
Mister Fantastic -- Swapped his head onto a superior Johnny Storm body.
Union Jack -- The aforementioned Commander Rogers mods.

The only one still on this buck on my shelf is the Vision, and he'll be replaced with a new (albeit laterally-inferior) version from Hasbro soon enough.

[Zend]

Hmm, I need to try that Union Jack fix. The legs on mine are super warped.

[Kamatayan]

The figures I'd like to see with correct articulation in the Marvel 3 3/4" lines that I could think off the top of my head are:
(I am aware that some of these have already been released. But the one's that I've listed that have already been previously released are exclusive one's that I want to be available without going to a comic convention or whatever.

-Anti Venom
-Mariah Hill
-Coulson
-Kidpool (with articulation.)
-Strucker
-AA Dracula
-Quake
-Uatu
-Domino
-Agent Venom
-MCU Guardians
-Vision
-Tigershark
-Radioactive Man
-Kingpin
-White Nick Fury
-Jessica Jones
-Bruce Banner
-General Thunderbolt Ross
-Tony Stark
-J. Jonah Jameson
-Dormammu
-Impossible Man
-Comic Odin

(I am aware that some of these have already been released. But the one's that I've listed that have already been previously released are exclusive one's that I want to be available without going to a comic convention or whatever.)

Also, I'm positive that we'll most likely never see 3.75" Marvel playsets but I'd love an EMH style prison where Ultron is in the middle and there are a bunch of cells around him.

[UrsaMagnus]

Yeah, keep dreaming sir. They keep stuffing more and more detail, accessories, swappable body parts AND BaF parts into Marvel Legends while we don't even get the courtesy of most accessories, let alone stands anymore. Heck, we should consider ourselves lucky we get capes these days.

Bitter much? Just a little. ;-)

[En Sabah Nerd]

I just got back from almost watching Ant-Man. "Almost" meaning an unexpected storm killed the power and 30 minutes after the "5 to 10 minutes" they said it would take to resume the film they just started another movie instead. It was almost over too, I think. I got a refund but frankly I'm really (pardon the language) pissed right now. Really F*cking pissed. I was specifically told the movie would resume from where it was when the power went out and nothing happened, they just rolled on to the next thing.

How much money does it even take to add things like more articulation, stands, and so forth? Is it something that can be accumulated with a simple Kickstarter? I'm totally fine with donating money if it means getting figures with better quality.

En Sabbah, man that's a real bummer. I hope you get to see it; it's really good!

Kamatayan; I doubt it's a money issue. The guy in charge just doesn't care for the line and his bias is showing.

I was really enjoying the movie and then POOF nothing. I think it was almost over, not entirely sure but the time implied it was near the end. They didn't even let me keep the ticket stubs, I always keep the stubs and put them in a little tin with all my other event tickets.

Really?! No freaking way! It would be kind of understandable if it was a money problem, but these low quality figures are because of some guy that's biased towards ML?! That's crazy.

Well in a way it is a money problem, they only have so much money and they'd rather spend way more of it on the 6" toys than the 3.75" ones. It's like they were told "you have $X to make action figures for Marvel" and the Hasbro guy was like "okay I'll use three-fourths of that for the Legends line, and the rest will be split between the 3.75 stuff and those crappy little two inch things."
