It's quite possible if it's a redo of a figure, I may not get the entire wave, particular if there's new versions of characters they've already made (exceptions to Jim Lee Cyclops that new Rouge and if they did a 90's White outfit Storm.) But if the BAF is a never done before figure I can certainly see me getting the whole wave.

Well I am about to start working on a custom Sauron, so if they gonna announce one, I hope they do it soon.

I'm probably the only person who wants obscure figures like Starjammers, X-Force's Grizzly, Forearm and GW, Magneto's Acolytes AFTER some core characters are made like Polaris, updated Havok, Multiple Man, Moonstar.

You're not alone Byrnes. I want all those obscure guys and girls. Hell, I'm working on a custom Slayback now, haha.

Of course after that then there's Dazzler, Syrin, Silver Samauri, Blink, Sunspot etc etc etc...

I would love a Marrow and Fitzroy. You got some damn good names here.

ALso good choices. A new nightcrawler would be welcome. Also, in regards to the Farouk figure, I would wonder if someone could customize a Kingpin pretty easy into one?

It's the season of All Hallows, so I had to go in! lol You're correct, those are the Spawn Bag of Demons and Bag of Dragons accessory figs. They work pretty well, but it took me a minute to MacGyver them together...While I'm happy with the results, my intended 'demon spout/geyser' looks more like a demonic X-mas tree. I'll need to work on that aspect if I repeat the effect in a future pic, but I'm glad you dig it! I'll be doing some more October/Halloween themed stuff soon...

You're crazy. That is actually a figure no one wants, but you I guess, LOL.

Oh yeah, Trevor Fitzroy is another great character I'd love. His 5" Toy Biz is still one of the best.

SymbiSpidey · 10-13-2015, 12:35 PM

What are the chances we get an X-23 Wolverine?

No love for Slayback? lol

But here's the thing. Hasbro hasn't turned Scarlet Witch into a Polaris yet. So how about they use the new Rogue? I'm not the greatest at this, but a quick digibash and we have another chance at Polaris!
I'm not sure if anyone remembers Toy Biz turning the original non legends Rouge into a Polaris, but if it happened once, why not again?

I would take a Polaris in any outfit over none at all, but the first X-Factor outfit (along with steroid polaris) is one of my least favorite outfits of hers. I'd prefer the outfit she wore during the Vulcan stuff but as long as she just gets done I won't complain, even if it did end up being 'Roidlaris (please don't be

)

You go on and have your custom Slayback, It's great you like the character but I definitely don't see him on the priority list. I had to look him up to be reminded of who he was. But if I want Damask, who appeared in one story and in an alternate universe at that, who am I to judge!

That's the beauty of customs. You can have whatever figure you want.

I'll take anything X-Factor, X-Force, X-Men at this point

Starlord67 · 10-13-2015, 02:42 PM

X-men want list
Storm (classic costume)
Polaris (classic costume)
Cyclops update (Jim Lee era)
Psylocke update (Jim Lee era)
Silver Samurai (BAF)
Gambit update (Jim Lee era)
Sunfire
Thunderbird
Deathbird(classic costume)

Captain Nash · 10-13-2015, 02:54 PM

oooh yeah. Deathbird. I would definitely want Deathbird. She's almost in my top 20 most wanted list but I don't necessarily consider her an X-related person, though I guess I should since that's where she's made practically all her appearances. I would totally be up for a Deathbird figure. The Toy Biz figure from the 90's is one my favorite figures I have from that run but is still just a little too small for legends format.

ultraman zoffy · 10-13-2015, 04:24 PM

You dudes and your obscure requests... =) how about you all just make your own customs of the folks you want so we don't have more Batroc/Machine Man style peg warmers in 2016? lol

The Blade head (along with others) has finally made an appearance.

I'm glad that figure got canceled. That head sculpt is as bad as the 3.75 inch version, and that old Fury body they used was terrible. I will gladly wait until they do a new version on the newer body styles.

They really do need to retire that mold and give us a brand new trenchcoat body mold with updated/better articulation.

Although in all likelihood, they're probably just going to keep using that mold.

Trivial Psychic · 10-13-2015, 09:57 PM

There are plenty of bodies out there already that would probably make for an easy Blade custom (I think either movie Winter Soldier or A.I.M./Ghost Rider)...but my god...that head is going for $71.00!!! WTF!?!? Sheesh...

C'mon man, after seeing the prices folks paid for the headless bodies, it isn't even a surprise anymore what crazy folks will pay for partially finished work. Lol

Probably rather high considering they seem to do a Wolverine with every X related wave.

As for the BAF, my bet is on Colossonaut. Comments about being almost as big as the Hulkbuster just push my mind that way.

Not a big X fan anymore but I will be looking for that Rogue and would probably end up buying that War of Kings costume Havok TBM mentioned earlier, a Gambit and multiple Madrox figures if any were released.

Spyne98 · 10-14-2015, 03:54 AM

If they do a Multiple Man, I'd have to buy 4, or 8.

The Toy Biz Apocalypse is awesome, but it came out more than a decade ago (2004) and wasn't easy to find on-shelves even when it first came out.

I really don't think "Well some other company made a good figure ten years ago" is going to factor into Hasbro's thinking. He's long overdue for a refresh.

Pretty high, I'd imagine. I'd be thrilled if they did a swap of X-23 Wolverine and either her more recent X-men costume or (even better) a proper X-Force version.

Spyne98 · 10-14-2015, 07:11 AM

I stumbled upon this custom online. This is something Hasbro needs to do, there's barely any differences between this and the Scarlet Witch it's based off of.
