With the new rumor from rektangle (?) about a full 7 figure wave with the theme "Classic" coming out next year, I am curious about what this means to everyone. What versions of Marvel characters do you consider their classic version? Whats your difference between retro and classic? Which characters classic version do you think still need to get made in the Legends line? Which seven characters are you hoping for?

For me, I feel a lot of characters "classic" versions have been made already. We just got Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor with the Anniversary figures. Both Scarlet Witch figures are styled at least on her classic look. Vision, War Machine, Elektra, Spider-woman, Punisher, Hulk, Quicksilver, Deadpool, Cable, Wolverine all have figures I would consider their classic look. Even though most are not my favorite looks for them I would consider the 90's Jim Lee versions to be most of the X-men's classic looks and if not then their Giant-sized era looks and we have most of those too.

My seven would be:

1. Doctor Strange (Idk which era but none of the ones we have really do the blue tunic yellow gloves look yet.)

2. Crystal (yellow suit. Black hair thingy. Her classic look would fit in very well with the other Inhumans Hasbro have made)

3. Ms. Marvel (asking a lot for 2 female characters in a wave but Carol's original costume deserves to get done too)

4. Graviton (a not yet done classic Avengers villian who only really has one look so that would be to me his classic look)

5. Professor Hulk (Pantheon era brown jumpsuit with glasses. Not what I would consider a classic Hulk look but I would consider it the classic Smart Hulk look)

6. Rick Jones (the classic side kick to Hulk, Captain America, and Mar-vell Captain Marvel!)

7. Baron Mordo (his classic green outfit is awesome and the line could use more Dr.Strange villians)

The BAF (if this wave has one) should definately be Shuma-gorath. Giant eye-ball and lots of tentacles it seems like a unique but straight forward kind of BAF.

My runner up would be Marvel Girl. I didnt include her in the wave because Im certain she would only get made in an X-men themed wave or pack but shes one of the few X-men characters left who hasnt been made in her classic (to me) Giant sized era looks.
