Word up.
There was a thread all about wolverine's next movie toyline with speculation already.
And like I said there, I'll say it again here:
They need to do more varied wolverines that are obscure to cover this time.
Stuff like:
Albert and Elsie Dee
Old Man Logan
Apocalypse Wolverine
Horseman Death Wolverine
AoA Wolverine
Ultimate Wolverine
Bone Claw Bandana Onslaught Wolverine
And then balance it with more nods from the comic side characters like:
Academy X X-23 (Preferably as a comic pack with Messiah Complex Deathstrike)
Messiah Complex Lady Deathstrike (Preferably as a comic pack with New X-Men/Academy X X-23)
Cyber
Modern Daken
Romulus
Astonishing Emma Frost to parallel the first movie's Astonishing Cyclops release.
Omega Red
Silver Samurai Single Carded (same as two pack release)
Uncanny X-Force Archangel
X-Force Wolfsbane in Wolfed out form. (Looks more demonic in the modern x-force wolfed out gear, and fits with the japan oni theme because of it.)
A Shiva Unit
Ultimate Nimrod
Mostly, stick to comics that are wolverine heavy in references, or use wolverine family. Finish up the Wolverine Origins figures with Cyber, Daken, Omega Red, A Shiva Unit, and Romulus, and then cover some X-Force, Uncanny X-Force, Ultimate, and Messiah Complex to wrap it up. Extra respect if they manage to work AoA Jean Grey in there.
Then toss in the movie line stuff like:
Movie Silver Samurai
Movie Yuriko in kimono or geisha outfit (depends which is more dominant in the movie)
The Wolverine Logan with logan in a training outfit, or samurai outfit, whatever is used in the movie for key scenes.
The jacketed wolverine from the first movie line re-released again with a sword and the jacket black(with yellow shoulder stripes) instead of brown and light brown stripes. It was a kickass first movie mold, and deserves to be used again.
A basic army builder bad guy. Whatever's dominant in the movie. (Ninjas, Yakuza, whatever) If need be, the Yakuza can be a new Suited buck, which can be used for a new logan in tux, daken in tux, or the ninjas can just be recolored hand ninja's from MU.
Then the rest can just be whatever filler or parts swapping can be made from who all is left.
Maybe even toss in a horseman Death Gambit figure for more mold re-usage, as well as a single carded Mr. Sinister.
This gives us more variety, and hits almost all the key characters people will want as well as keeps the movie universe fans covered too. It'd also greatly expand the molds available for MU. The New X-Men/Academy X femal Buck in particular can be reused later for Pixie among others. Just like some of the others can be reused again later like lady deathstrikes hands for a classic variant.
If they overdo the movie wolverines, the line won't move. They need to cover stuff that's eye catching for kids, and perfect for fans. Wolverine figures that are fun and varied without being gimmicky like scuba dive wolverine, or similiar.
