First, to all the people who are saying Luke should have been packed with Danny... why? Sure, they are Power Man and Iron Fist... in the comics. In the Netflix shows, they've only shared a handful of scenes together (and only one that I recall without Matt or Jessica there, too) and, thus far, have had almost zero chemistry beyond 'two people in the same room who are doing a thing together.' While the upcoming season of Luke Cage promises to build up their relationship (and likely finally give Danny the benefit of some halfway decent writing and directing), it hasn't happened yet, and hadn't happened when this pack was planned. Meanwhile, Luke and Claire have had a TON of chemistry, to the point where their relationship (on multiple levels) is one of the best ones across the Netflix line, and that's not even going into how, like it or not, she's been an important part of the Netflix shows.

Second, I'm pretty sure that Hasbro would like Danny to have a more iconic look before they make a figure of him. Short of 'beardy business suit whiteboy' and 'beardy homeless hipster whiteboy,' Danny didn't have any particular 'Iron Fist' outfit, unless you count him being shirtless and showing off his 'I drew this on with liquid latex' dragon tattoo. Which, really, are ANY of those compelling action figures if you don't already know that this random-looking guy is Danny Rand?

I agree that we should get a Danny figure, even if I haven't been a fan of his portrayal in the Netflix series (though I mostly chalk that up to behind-the-scenes crap, and have hope for him in the upcoming shows' seasons), but I want to see one that looks good enough to actually warrant that ~$20 price tag, not one that looks like he belongs in either 'The Walking Dead' or 'DC Multiverse.' If he gets a good outfit that says, 'Hey, this guy is Danny Rand, the Living Weapon, the Iron Fist,' then hell yeah, cast that in plastic. But until that happens, it would just be a Finn Jones action figure, and I'm pretty sure few people would want that.
