Plus at this point X-Men and Spider-Man are for the most part the only things I'm interested in with the new prices. I want my wants from both lines to be completed before we have to deal with another price hike.

That's great for you, but where does that leave people with wants outside of your preferences?

I sincerely doubt a Titania on the moonstone buck wouldn’t sell good, and I imagine I’m not the only one who thinks these characters more than qualify for inclusion. It’s kind of crazy we haven’t gotten more b-listers like a comic yelena, for example. |

Why would I be talking for other people? I only post for my wants. That's the whole point of every one being an individual. We're not the borg, so why would I speak for other people?

They should do a Thor wave since it's Thor's 60th Anniversary this year. So many characters from the comics they could do. Comic Heimdall Sif Jane Foster Valkyrie Brundhilde Throg Comic Gorr Frigga King Thor and his Granddaughters etc.

Pivoting a bit, but does anyone have any ideas on a potential SDCC 2022 Marvel Legends exclusive??? |

In the past, some of SDCC exclusives have tied in with Hasbro's premium line for the summer months. (Marvel Studios 10 Years, Fox X-Men, Marvel 80th). Since this year's premium line is Spider-Man: Beyond Amazing, I could see a Future Foundation multipack. Either a 3 pack with Reed, Sue, and Ben in stealth Future Foundation costumes or a regular Future Foundation 4 pack with Reed, Sue, Ben, and Peter in their white costumes. Another option for a single figure SDCC exclusive could be Symbiote Spider-Man with blue cel-shading, similar to the PulseCon Venom. |

For a Thor wave, I'd like to see
Walt Simonson/Classic Beta Ray Bill The Warriors Three Jane Foster Valkyrie This new version of Thor. Not sure which issue this is from but it could easily be made from the Herald Thor. |

Oh, that's right! We still need a classic Beta Ray Bill... I keep forgetting about him. And classic Adam Warlock too. I hope we don't have to wait until GoTG3 comes out to get them.

The OP only suggested that there be a decrease in the focus on Spider Man and the X-men, not that they be eliminated outright. They made room for the wants of others while still expressing their own. Your comment was only focussed on your needs with zero accommodation for the original track of dialogue, which is narcissistic and a patternistic theme with you. Many of us want Titania, very badly in fact. Many of us want more than just Spidey and X-men characters. We've said so for years and these very sentiments are reflected in the comments above this one in which people are calling out for a plurality of characters. Going by the logic (or illogic) of your comment regarding individuality, in that sense, why should anyone care about whether you are hired as a teacher, about recent loses of your friends, about the increase in your rent, or what homes you and your wife can or cannot buy? All lamentations that you've posted on the thread totally independent of the topics at hand. The answer is that people care because whether they like you, or not, they accept that you share a community with them and they can empathize. Last edited by TheBlueMarvel; 06-27-2022 at 06:49 AM.. |

The bigger explanation for a lack of Titania or Madame Masque is likely the lack of specific Iron Man or Hulk themed waves more than anything to do with Spider-Man. |

Because you are participating in a community, even here. Just as in life, it's not all about you. Maybe you haven't noticed, but many commenters on this thread celebrate the wants of others when those wishes are fulfilled, even when they themselves don't care for a particular character. I have mentioned empathy to you before and this was a simple follow up to that same thought. It's not so much about being wrong for speaking about your wants, it's more about invalidating what soemone else asks for and focusing exclusively on yourself.

I mean... I do kinda doubt it in at least one of those cases. Screaming Mimi is already pretty obscure and they've made her far better known identity of Songbird, so I'm skeptical that the thing keeping her from getting made is Spidey and the X-Men. Especially when Legends releases tend to be silo'ed off now in their own specific little sub-categories for the most part.
The bigger explanation for a lack of Titania or Madame Masque is likely the lack of specific Iron Man or Hulk themed waves more than anything to do with Spider-Man. If they would stop obsessing over Spider-Man the people who have other character specific wants would more than likely end up having a few names checked off their wish list. I mean I don’t have anything against spider-man, heck I even want more of the female sinister six after beetle and white rabbit. |

They probably released Herald Thor because Galactus is shipping this Fall/Winter. Dan Yun stated recently that "more Heralds are coming". It stands to reason they are trying to finish up all the Heralds. |

He isn’t Hasbro is, I understand the demand but they could try to make more non themed waves so they can expand the character selection.

...And a proper ROM. Your In-Betweener want is echoed, my friend. I want the whole Lim/Starlin Surfer era. The fact we get a stupid Dr. Doom head instead of unmasked Galen portrait still chaps my ass.
