The Kingpin BAF rumor has been really hitting hard with this wave. I'm gonna be really disappointed if it's a swing and a miss. Like you said, it makes absolute, perfect sense.

Now that we finally have Thor on a properly scaled mold - Hyperion buck - I'm hoping for a classic Thor using the body...and a Beta Ray on the ROML mold, but I'd also be happy with Bill on the Hyperion mold if Hasbro opted to make him the same size as Thor, although he's not.

Could put Bill on the Colossus mold, maybe?

That's a good idea, but the corrugated detail would necessitate a new mold for the arms/hands...I still like that idea, though...

We were in the path too. Had some clouds, but they stayed parted to give us a perfect view where I was. I took some shitty shots with my IPhone, but took in the experience more than anything thing. Totality was pretty awesome. I wish I could print a picture of what my eyes saw...that's probably a couple decades off (Black Mirror anyone?).

Columbia had several large viewing events around the city. I even heard a couple folks say they had a 12 hour drive back home. After seeing the one today, I wouldn't count out driving that far for the one in 2024.

Hasbro needs to do a good fat-body mold. Kingpin would be the right guy.

Yes, at the very least it could also be re-used for an Amahl Farouk, Shadow King.

He's not fat he's all muscle. Now Blob though...that's fat. But y eah you're right. The problem is he'd be a large figure in a suit....that's where I wonder who else we could get aside from The Shadow King's human host.

If he is a BAF then they shouldn't worry about remolds. Beaides, they can do white suit and black suit versions

That would look very cool!

With recent reuse of BAF parts (Rhino to Abomination, Space Knight Venom to Titus, Absorbing Man to Sandman) I could see some mileage on a Kingpin sized body.

Id say make some new legs n arms for him. They need and intermediary body for characters that are bigger than humans but not as a big as thor etc.

Thanks, Blue. I can't get enough of this Hela figure. She's the perfect mixture of comic-based/MCU and could fit seamlessly within either collection. The absolute best of both worlds.

[TheBlueMarvel]

@Nite

Agreed, on the need for a middling-large body. However, Bill is significantly larger than Thor, so that wouldn't work for him IMO.

That's exactly what your pics have conveyed to me. Thanks to you, outside of Hulk and Ares, she's my third most wanted. Hela changes in appearance often from artist to artist and this new MCU fig could easily stand in for her. I'm looking forward to nabbing her and the set. How tall is she?

I measured her to be 7 inches but the spikes of the headdress nearly give her another inch, too. She's definitely worth it, if you can find her. I only ever saw her once and had to buy her on sight.

Thanks, Red.
