I think the Toy Biz Throwback Punisher comes with both alternate heads, but you're right about him not having the harness and all the weapons.

I wish they would go further back to the Mattel Secret Wars figures and do a wave of throwback figures on those Secret Wars cardbacks too. If it were up to me they'd do at least one wave including Doctor Doom. I had that version as a kid and I still like that design for Doom. It would be an excuse for them to reissue Black Suit Spider-Man, Magneto and Brown Suit Wolverine but those guys aren't the figures that clog up the pegs. Plus we could get updated versions of classic Electro, Falcon, Kang and Doc Ock.

Yeah, I was just going off of what I could remember.

Its funny you should mention the Secret Wars line - I remember a lot of people commenting on how Taskmaster's arms and legs were perfect for a SW Doom.

I've wanted this particular BP for a lonnnnng tahme..





is the punisher the same at the Walgreen's release?

Glad you were able to add that beautiful piece to your collection.

[hasbroherofan]

I'm always amused that Falcon, Zemo, Electro and Daredevil were in Secret Wars the toyline despite not actually being in the event.

Doom's Secret Wars look would be interesting.



Has it ever been done in toy form again after Secret Wars?

[Veronica Mars]

Has everyone seen JayC's interview with the Legends team? Dwight says Beast is over due and they mention wanting to do new versions of Emma and Gambit. The build a hover chair idea came up again as well as it being in the Riders line(more of a joke). Xavier is the only Illuminati character without a Legends figure now right?

[MeLikeJinx]

^ Wut? So Xavier would be a regular fig in the wave, but his chair would be the BAF? That would be messed up. LOL.

I would be ok with a hover chair being a BAF , but it would have to be 3 parts to make the chair, 2 parts to make a Cerebro console , and 1 part to be the Cerebro helmet and cables. thus 6 parts to make the BAF of the chair and console. The professor has been NON paralyzed many times. But I know they would make him in a suit and not in his Jacket and Gloves ala X-men 1 from the 90's.

Well there's the ToyBiz one but otherwise yeah. I wouldn't mind his chair being a BAV. It'd be less awkward than the person who suggested a single card Sauron with wing parts you had to purchase at least.

100% yes! I would love these. Secret Wars was the 1st toy line I ever went complete on. I even have the European figures. I would take throwback packaging, that would rock!
I also wish some company would do figures in the Secret Wars toy style. There was supposed to be a 4th wave that never got produced featuring Thunderball, Hulk, Annihilus, Mystique, Dazzler, Mr. Fantastic and Abomination. You can read about it here.
Sorry, I know that went off topic, but it's like my favorite toy line ever.

Or instead of a baa ( build an accessory )just split the chair, put it behind him in the box and have the cerebro helmet next to chucky in the package and dont include a baf piece ala dp and old man logan and Deathshead 2.

[Bearjew]

I found BP in the wild today along with the Manthing wave. I don't want him but it the first time I have seen him.

[Captain Nash]

I'm so torn on this talk about an Xavier Build a Chair wave. Lord knows I want a Sauron badly but getting a new Xavier and this time with his Shi'ar hoverchair would be amazing. So...torn.....

[Kirathis]

What they should do is pack Xavier with a standard wheelchair like the Toybiz version but then have the hover chair as the BAF if they go that route. Gives more options. Particularly if the chair can fit other characters. I could totally see using it for a busted up Punisher display. Frank all bandaged up and working on his weapons.

Yes to all of this

[warmachine6]

i liked the idea where JayC suggested that prof.x should be part of the riders wave with his hover chair, i would buy the hell out of it , if they did that.

Yeah those 2 might be long gone since fall is pretty much here...it's interesting that the A-Force set stills shows in stock though.

I have never had an issue. As long as you can get the room relatively dried out you should be ok. I hope your home is ok!

Good job! Moments like this is what you have been preparing for as a collector... even if your competition was Usain Bolt... you better grab that Jean Grey first.

The MU Professor X Hover Chair splits right in half... so I guess 3 parts is fine for any ML version since it gotta fit in those small boxes. Scalpers would definitely hold the parts hostage for ransom prices though since the chair is pretty much essential to the character IMO.
