The Beast - (George Perez / Apeman)

Gotta go with my favorite character and namesake. I'm no fan of the current feline incarnation though. I've bought the few and collectibles they've done of him that way, and it just doesn't work as well as the classic Avengers incarnation. Especially when drawn by George Perez. He'd go great with Destro's #1 request of Iceman as well. Not to mention the Wonder Man (Safari Jacket) who would be my #2 most wanted figure. Gotta have both.

We really haven't seen a good version of Apeman Beast since the 90's X-Men line. The one in Marvel Legends was oversized and doesn't really fit that well scale-wise with the rest of the figures. The Marvel Legends 12" Icons was closer, but the bulky body hurt the articulation. Hopefully they can manage to nail the classic George Perez version of Hank McCoy right off the bat. And they can even do a grey fur variant from when Hank first changed.
