They'd need to lengthen the arms as well or else the anatomy will look off, like the A-Force pack She-Hulk

[Hulkwummy]

Okay, so the arms and legs need to be lengthened, but what about the torso and the head? Can he still wear the blue trunks?

[warmachine6]

they could just scale the model appropriately and his details , then release him with a pair of grasping hands and fists.

Good idea, can he still wear the blue trunks so he doesn't appear naked?

I LOVE the size of FF Thing. If they make Abomination that size, he'd still be big enough for most without requiring a special price or box.

I did some size comparison and the Thing is not as big as the SDCC Vintage Hulk at all, so Hasbro can't remake Abomination the same size as the New Thing figure, Abomination is suppose to be bigger than the Hulk, that's how he is drawn in the comics, just as Wolverine is suppose to be shorter than his fellow X-Men.

[En Sabah Nerd]

Scaling up and fine-tuning the sculpting on the BAF would work for me, and he'd keep his trunks so we wouldn't have a naked Abomination. It's pretty sad that the Abomination Hasbro gave us is smaller than every single recent Hulk they've done in the scale.

[warmachine6]

that body mold could be re-tooled for characters like abomination, i was tempted to buy another one and make a doomsday figure...

They would easily retool the Hydro Man body for Sand Man. Maybe also give him interchangeable arms so he can regular arms too. Oh, and they need to fix the ab crunch joint so it's tighter.

I didn’t know the wobbly ab-crunch was a wide-spread problem with that figure. It’s reassuring that I didn’t accidentally screw mine up.

My LCS just got in Black Suited Storm. I’m dead broke right now, but she’s out there!

^ Speaking of which... at the local flea market I was able to get a whole set of the 92 Jim Lee X-men trading cards for 5 bucks... which made me happy because I loved that set as a kid and I can't remember what happened to it. Anyway... Storm from that set...

^ That definitely looks black IMO... I mean look at the cape... at the very least it doesn't look white or silver. I might have to get the black version now since at least for me the X-men trading card set overrides the X-men cartoon.

Looks metallic blue to me, hoss: p

You're not actually wrong. Okay I want a third version of this first AFTER we get FA Storm.

Side note...what kind of Dawn Of X looks is everyone drawn to enough to want a figure of? I'm not looking at a whole lot, but Magneto, Cyclops and Storm are definite wants eventually. Maybe Captain Britain and Rictor. Definite no on Kate Pryde though.

It looks very silver to me (or platinum, really), but you're right that the wings look black.

I feel a little corny saying so, but Wolverine, Cyclops, and Xavier. Actually, I guess Magneto and Rachel too. Both of them are essentially wearing old costumes of theirs, but it's Rachel's best, and it's the Magneto costume that finishes the Bendis renegade X-Men.

I know what you mean. I bought him, opened him up and he kept flopping over at the ab crunch so I returned him as defective to Target and while I was waiting to find another one, I learned that it was a common issue. As such, while I still want him in my collection, I'm not willing to pay full price for him.

I prefer the white costumed one. Not only does it have better details, but she just looks weird all in black when the costume was not black in either the comics nor the cartoon.

I'd be down for the current Rachel. It's just her best look but without the full jacket. I was okay with her recent "prestige" look but it always felt too much like Adam Warlock to me. I just really don't want her spiked hound costume, I get that some people are going to want her Excalibur look but if we did could it please just be when she adopted her mother's phoenix costume.

A classic Captain Britain from his Excalibur days needs a redo using the Super Skrull buck. Would just need newly sculpted thigh high boots & gloves along with the new head sculpt. Classic Doc Samson is long overdue as well.

I have a feeling Starfox is on the horizon as that klrrt body just screams it.

I don't recall Brian ever having shoulder flairs like Super Skrull. It'd probably be easier just to use the Hyperion body again.

The Super Skrull is too big to be reused for Eros.

Marvel Girl, Corsair, Black Tom, Pyro, and Moira MacTaggert would be cool. They can stand in for classic looks too. I like Cypher’s new look as well (and the other New Mutants).

Maybe he bulked up?

[Boy Blunder]

I like some of the Dawn of X costumes, but none that I'm really feeling for figures. I mean, if they release some, I'll likely buy them, but I have an X-Men problem

Starfox is definitely not a toy friendly character, that's going to need to be a con exclusive boxset kinda deal.
