I'd be down with that, so long as they don't make his proportions so off like the one we have now. I swear I dont know what TB was thinking with that.

@Nash

Was that BP wave confirmed?

@WeaponX

Regarding the intonation of posted comments, we rotate taking turns offending each other. I "inadvertently" do it all the time! ;)

You should try it, it functions as a rite of passage of sorts. Lets us know an Arker is real.

You don't like the TB Apoc?

You forgot Deathbird. ;)

I absolutely love the BAF Apocalypse but the non BAF Apocalpyse is just proportioned wrong. Mind you not enough so that I wasn't willing to spend $40 on him, but still...I want a better one.

As far as the BAF goes, I cannot see Hasbro one upping either the Sentinel or Apocalypse scales, they are perfection. If they do a BAF a mid-sized BAF would be fine.


It is not, but it's still a rumor. I'm going to run with it for now just for griping purposes, and hope that it turns out not being true. I'm going to be so disappointed if it is.

OMG I did! And she's in my top 20 figures I want to see made, not including BAF, so she would probably be at #5 on that list.

And before anyone asks, I did not "forget" Cassandra Nova. :D

Well, my list is gonna be very similar to yours, Nash (unsurprising, since we're both X-nerds like whoa) but here we go. And like you, I'm gonna go far beyond a top ten.

1. Magneto - Let's face it, we need a good, new Magneto. TB and the TRU-exclusive are passable at best. A new Magneto with interchangeable heads (helmeted and unhelmeted) and maybe some alternate hands and energy effects would just be the Motts.
2. Sauron - Probably as a BAF just to get the wings right (and to justify the all-new sculpting for him) but the guy needs some love.
3. Apocalypse - A nice, properly built and tall one. I'd take either a BAF or a standalone figure (like on the Colossus body, as was suggested) but either way, we need a new one that's not ginormous, and not squat as hell.
4. Mr. Sinister - Needs an update.
5. Nimrod - BIG AND SHINY AND PINK, DAMMIT!
6. Bastion - doesn't need to be big, but he does need to look sharp as hell.
7. Shadow King - Astral form please. A Farouk in addition would be great, but astral form is a must.
8. Legion - I know he waffles on where his alignment is, but he's been enough of a villain to count. A basic figure with some great facial sculpting and a variety of energy effects would be wonderful.
9. Exodus - Give this guy his due!
10. Goblin Queen - Unlikely to be a retail release, but I want a Maddie to further fill out the Summers-Grey Family Shrub.
11. Dark Beast - Gotta get some AoA love here. And if they release a standard Hank, then this would be a 'no-brainer' retool.
12. Sabretooth - The last one was good, but could we just get a newer one with the fur collar bit? Please?
13. Mammomax - Come on. For being a very short-lived villain, he's got a memorable design, and he's ripe for a BAF, especially given, again, his unique parts.
14. Vanisher - Why? Why not? Guy's been around for long enough to get his due.
15. Toad - One of the first Marvel Legends figures, and yet one of the least poseable. Update! Update now! Jester costume would be ideal, but at this point, I'll take anything.
16. Destiny - Another long-overlooked character who has never gotten the plastic treatment. Not even in Toy Biz's 5" line from the 90s. Give Mystique's lover a place on our shelves!
17. Emplate - One of the only notable villains from Generation X really needs to get done. Look at his design! It's hard not to love it, or at least see how toyetic it is.
18. Lady Deathstrike - Another one in dire need of an update.
19. The Nasty Boys - I've got such love for this team of loser Sinister thugs (Ruckus, Ramrod, Gorgeous George, Slab, and Hairbag). Bring them to me, please and thank you. Convention exclusive, store exclusive, piecemeal in other waves, whichever.
20. All-New All-Deadly X-Men - Same as above. The Grey King, Rapture, Crux, Mercury, Landslide, and Chaos/Xaos. Top it off with an evil Cerebro to lead them.
21. Brimstone Love - Who, you may ask? Why, one of the chief villains of the X-Men 2099, a guy who evokes Tim Curry's Darkness from Legend. A massive hunk of horned mutant, this guy needs a BAF pronto.
22. Warwolves - Another BAF candidate due to uniqueness, making a generic Warwolf would just make my life. Or perhaps smaller ones sold in a three-pack. Either way.
23. Ahab - Would be great paired with a 'classic' Rachel Summers release.

oooh BB, you added some great ones I missed! I'm fine with the Magnetos we have personally but if any get done again it'll be him. And I understand the issues that exist with the ones we have.

HA! Nimrod needs those Tron-esque lines...GLow in the dark! Glow in the Dark! Make it happen Hasbro! Light it up!!!

Vanisher in particular is one that I should have included. I haven't given him much thought to be honest but he's due his due. Destiny should definitely be made, and Toad should be redone, he's one of the few I do not have a figure of at all that is available, cost and just general "meh" on the existing mold is why I'm resisting.

I like your more interesting and unique choices, as suggestions, even if I would probably not be all that up for them. The beauty of wants is that no two people's are alike, and neither are wrong! That said I would totally buy an All New All Deadly X-Men set. and let's not forget about the Dark X-Men from the new Excalibur run.

FWIW, I would just use the X-3 Beast figure as a stand in for Dark Beast, but a unique sculpt would be great. Do you want him in his classic AOA look or closer to the real McCoy's look?

All I really want is a Hellfire Club 5 pack, featuring Shaw, White Queen, Pierce, and maybe Leland. I say maybe because I want the set to come with two Hellfire goons, which means that if Leland is included, we'll need to make it a six pack.

As for other X-villains, I'd have to go with Mastermind, Vertigo, Arcade, Silver Samurai, Bastion, an updated Mystique (with swappable heads, similar to what they did with Chameleon...and they could throw in a J-Law inspired head swap to spite her...) Spiral and Lady Deathstrike would be great as well.

BAF wise, I'd really like to see Cameron Hodge or Nimrod.

The only reason that I didn't put Apocalypse or Mr Sinister on these lists is I feel that any attempt by Hasbro to do them would ultimately be let downs, because both of the ToyBiz offerings were excellent. I would gladly take them though over another Wolverine or an obligatory Jim Lee "update" of a character that we already have...

My Xwishlist:
1. X-man Nate Grey ( blue and yellow outfit )
2. AoA Blink
3. X-men 2099 ( skullfire, la lunatica, meanstreak, bloodhawk, baf metal head )
4. Deathbird
5. Hepzibah ( sexy cat chick...giggity )
6. Sinsear
7. Cyber
8. Vulcan
9. Sway
10. Petra
11. Darwin
12. Fabian Cortez
13. Rusty
14. Skids
15. Callisto
16. 90's blue booty shorts pink top yellow coat Jubilee
17. Gideon
18. Grizzly
19. Maverick
20. Agent X

Damn I forgot all the Marauders, thanks for bringing up Vertigo. Then again, I would probably buy any female villain that Hasbro put out even Cassandra Nova (though I would not lobby for her to be made.)

I think the Sinister is good but not great. Maybe he's just a character that doesn't translate well from page to plastic. Ooh Arcade...Cameron Hodge..I'm drooling here.

Hasbro how about a New Mutants wave featuring a Demon Bear BAF??? ( I don't REALLY think Hasbro is reading these boards...but my philosophy in life is if you don't ask, you don't get.)

I really like that Apocalypse. Your observation about proportion is absolutely true, but I feel that was the intention for the character. He controls every aspect of his DNA allowing him to increase size and change portions (if not all) of his from - gun/vise arms. Personally speaking, I think someone with those abilities shouldn't be exactly human looking. Many artists have illustrated Apocalypse as Hulk size.

Can we get it retooled slightly as Ursa Major?

That is a very good point. I have never looked at it like that, perhaps it'll help redefine my opinion of that figure.

of course we can!!

I don't enjoy offending people.

@WeaponX

Understandable - you've been pretty consistent with your comments, but lighthearted ribbing is common practice among friends (or potential friends)...especially so, in safe communal places like this one. I'll remember not to be too caustic when joking with you, if it's a problem.

On a side, slightly unrelated note: I have Brit buddy that confirmed that if your UK friend/acquaintance doesn't razz you, there's a good chance they don't like you very much. I'm sure this isn't the sentiment of all UK residents, but it was interesting and resonates with me. That said, everyone is different.

I come with the " guaranteed to offend " sticker. ;)

I think I also may need one, where do you get those?? :p

I'm fine with ribbing/busting your buddies chops, but thats just it. Unless Ive built a relationship with someone, and they say something like that, I wont see it as busting chops, I'll see it as insulting me because I've had to deal with a lot of harrassment online, and because I dont really know that person. My first forum was a rough place. And whether it's a forum, youtube, or social media, someone's always insulting me over nothing.

Trust me, I dont go around looking for trouble. I just want peace.

I grabbed this on eBay the other day. I didn't even know they made one, so I was stoked! Perfect condition, and it's a massive figure.

So Target raised their prices on the Spider-Man Legends.

How much?

50 cents, as far as I can tell.

There is also a white variant, they are very nice figures.
