I had to Wikipedia Century and Hypnotia. I'm guessing they are mostly from the Iron Man cartoon.
Century looks to me like a generic 90's bad guy, but I was shocked at Hypnotia, as she looks like taking a big design clue from Marionette from the Micronauts.
Now, who's leaked that Iron Man list? I must have missed it somehow.
Re: Ultron.
I own the Marvel Select one, and he is lovely, but the ball joints are not great, thou ok for a robot, and the size is too large for ML.
Similar to the MS Colossus, you can fudge it, but it's not quite right, kind of thing.
As to which one is the "classic Ultron" that differs, from fan to fan. Of course down to the nature of when and where you saw him first.
I can see, ML is moving a bit more towards 80's/ 90's with some 70's thrown in. I can see by the ages of the Hasbro team and the fanbase that there's a trend to go 90's forward.
I wonder why that is. Is it because the older fans don't care about collecting, or rather the explosion of Marvel Spider-man and X-men plus cartoons, have left a stronger Mark?
I guess the later.
Nonetheless, I am thrill at the depth of characters within the MU being produced. It's wonderful.
DC had a good run with Mattel, but it seems, the current focus is about only two characters (Bats and Harley). I always remember a quote from the (sometimes naughty) Stan Lee, saying something like Marvel characters and popular, DC are not, Nuff said.
Again, when someone like me has to google a Marvel Character like Hypnotia (and yes, I own Phantazia figurine from McDonals) , and I get a bit excited about this or that character, and want to learn more, I'd say the Hasbro people are doing a-okey.
Heck, I got my Jocasta, and now Ultron right? Life's good.
