Cap, Iron Man and Thor have been go-to characters, sure, but we've never had Perez versions of the characters and I couldn't pass including them. Plus, I'd love a classic Cap with a smiling head sculpt and accessories of his classic round shield without holes in it and his classic triangular shield as well. Thor could easily get a swappable bearded head to change things up and maybe a lightning effect for Mjolnir. And "Heroes Return" armor Iron Man is my most wanted version of the character that I want made into a new figure. I just think the "Return" armor looks great. I included Beast instead of Wonder Man because there are a lot of people who don't remember that Beast was an Avenger too and the idea of having a Perez style head for Beast was too good to pass up on. But yes, any version of Wonder Man, classic Yellowjacket and Justice all need figures A.S.A.P.

Since it's January now, I'm curious when we'll see our first Marvel Legends reveals for the year. Maybe the Avengers wave will be the next big reveal? I'd love to find out if the rumored classic U.S. Agent figure turns out to be real, as I'd love to add him to my collection. An updated classic purple-and-blue Hawkeye with pointed wings on his mask would be very much appreciated too, Hasbro.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and stay safe, everyone.

That completely makes sense going for that line up, particularly the "Big Three". We've had so many figures of them but that run deserves figures of everyone that played more than a bit part.

I'm kind of wondering about that US Agent too. Outside of that and the rumored Wolverine wave from several years back (most of which have now been made), I think we've pretty much seen everything pan out, though we're still waiting for that Hawkeye it's not been too long running of a rumor. Now that we've seen some figures for a West Coast Avengers retro wave, I wonder if they'll still squeeze him in somewhere, or if it's a case of them not wanting to do a comic character of a new MCU character to avoid confusion.

I'm thinking our first reveals for the year may well be some of that Avengers wave. I think since the X-Men wave rumors were correct, the rumors for that line up are as well. The source has been extremely reliable. Even though it's mostly going to be things I'm going to pass on, getting Blue Marvel and an updated Madame Hydra will be great.
