Everyone in the main thread seems to be in agreement that Hasbro producing a ML accessory pack would be great. Even Hasbro has mentioned being interested in producing one. But what is everyone interested in the pack including?

My wants include:

More teleportation circles! I really love Blink's effect piece and want it in more colors specifically yellow (for Dr. Strange's sling ring portals), blue (for Magik's stepping disks), and purple (for Nightcrawler)

Black magic effects. The Scarlet Witch MCU hand swirls not the Scarlet Witch comic circles. I really dig Sunspots black effects. Personally I want them for Selene's energy-draining effect.

Translucent purple (or yellow) bow and arrow. I would use it for Dani Moonstar.

Bendy wire Dr. Octopus tentacle arms. Even if these became standard for any future Doc Ock figures it would be great to have some to replace on the older figures.

Translucent clear whip (Black Cat's). Emma Frost is often shown using pychic whips on the astral plane. I actually wish they had made the one that comes with the HFC pack like this or given us two, the black one and this one.

I would also be interested in more translucent hands to show off characters powers (male and female). Maybe white and black (Black Cat) heels to use to switch out hard to stand heeled females.

I like your suggestions of a throw back to the Ock tentacles of the Toy Biz classic and a translucent bow for Mirage would be a smart bet.

More beam effects would be ideal for Surfer fans like myself along with a 'gleaming' surf board textured on both sides. Add to that my want for spell effects for Strange, Twoyoungman, Wanda, et al...

I'd also love solid light projections, but without a Quasar, I guess I'd prefer solid 'sound' projections for Klaw and Songbird.

Of course, heads that convey feeling are also on my list. A screaming Herc head, the same for the Battling Submariner, and Thing and Wolverine heads smoking cigars.

Finally I need fists for the fighters, most notably the mid-large mold for Namor (his olive skin tone makes him a very hard match necessitating a manufacturer solution), Wonder Man, and Cap are pretty glaringly absent.

There are many other ideas I could rattle off such as deluxe accessory packs - Kang's advanced time-tech throne, a functional partially translucent "BAMF" for Nightcrawler, and massive hair extensions for Medusa - just to name a few.

More than just re colored effects, witch are nice, I want specific artifacts. Broken Cap Shield for Endgame. The Wand of Watomb. The Frost Giant Casket of Ancient Winters. The Crown of Surter. The Crimson Gem of Cyttorak w/ Crimson Bands. The Book of the Darkhold. The Container for the MCU Aether. Movie Howard the Duck and Cosmo the dog. Hell toss a Lockjaw in there and a Throgg.

[Dr Kain]

I want to see web accessories for Spider-Man and maybe some gripping hands that can hold webs like the ones you see the MAFEX figures come with. Have different lenghts of webbing.

Some weather effects for Storm like water and wind ones.

Open hands for the BAF Apocalypse.

Various guns that come with blast effects.

Maybe some nice background pieces like garbage cans and crates.

Alternate battle damaged heads.

A <poof> smoke effect for Nightcrawler.

Gripping hands for Hobgoblin and Green Goblin along with some bat razor blades.

I'd probably suggest themed packs.
Tech - Lasers, Robot parts, Jetpacks, teleporter effects
Magic - Spell effects, ghost rider skulls, magic artifacts
Ninja Aresenal - Swords, Sai, Shuriken, throwing hand effects
Punisher Arsenal - Guns, Explosives, and accompanying effect parts
X-men - Thunder effects, Ice Slides, Phoenix Wings, Psychic effects. Bamf effects
Web Warriors - Web and Symbiote effects. Spider-Sense effects. Bag Man Heads
Iron Man - various Iron Man suit parts like the floating stuff from Infinity War and Endgame

Body Shoppe troop builder packs: Treat them like the Endgame Team Suit Target exclusive packs and Mr. Fantastic/Super Skrull. One male and One Female generic body with a bunch of accessories and swappable arms and legs. Set them to specific themes.

Dressed for Success: Male and Female suited body options. Maybe have a BAF-esque lower body option for skirt/pants suit options for female characters. Toss in gloved/ungloved hand options and a few generic heads.

Student of X: Reuse/remold the Kitty or Danielle female body, add a generic male outfit too. Give the option for Magik's armored arm, transparent arms, and robotic limbs

School Uniform: Reuse/remold the Stepford body. Provide a male option as well.

Shield Agent: Basic reuse/recolor of the Nick Fury figure for the male option, need a redo of the female body because those were barely poseable in the first place and couldn't even stand well on those heels. Shield theme accessories included.

Body Shoppe Add-on packs:
Mutants - More Multiple Man and Mystique head options. Various mutant heads to accompany the generic body options.

Maggia - generic henchman heads and accessories

Ghost Rider - Male and female ghost rider skulls and accessories to turn any hero figure into a ghost rider option.

Symbiote - Generic symbiote heads, hands and effects.

Tech - more cyborg limbs and accessories. Go here for Reaver parts or Ultron/Sentinel related stuff.

[Mimicboy]

Everyone has some really great ideas. I dig the idea of themes for the packs so if you wanted more weapons or more magic effects or more mutant power effects, then you could just pick and choose.

Would love to see more ice effects and if Hasbro was open to creating exclusive accessories for the packs things like artifacts or larger pieces like Kang's chair would be fun.

Also the idea for more Mystique "transforming" heads is great. Idk if I personally want too many expression faces as I tend to keep the best looking head on my figure and put the others in a fodder bucket. I would be down for more powered Rogue heads though. Id love a Colossus-powered Rogue head (maybe hands too) and an extra Psylocke effect to give her.

[Captain Nash]

Bomber Jackets - they could be made to clip on "most" figures with various sizes, instead of being put on like a normal jacket would be just have a front and back section, or a back and two front sections if they're going to be left open.

Yes, I'm dead serious. I want my early to mid 90's Avengers!

[hasbroherofan]

More army building hands.

Some more realistic guns like the ones that recently came with Domino.

Slash effects for claw characters like Wolverine and Black Panther.

[Super Joe]

I support the idea. Just not at retail. The way accessory packs are often so spaced out on a blister card, often takes up way too much space, on limited store shelves. As an online item = yes. Taking too much space on retail shelves = no.

[usernamedustin]

I want an accessory pack of 3 Celestial helmets.

I think that online does make the most sense for this kind of release. A Pulse exclusive seems like the best idea for Hasbro, though Pulse isn't my favorite online source to get things from. It could be another ongoing thing for their site though like the army builder figures. A couple of packs being released each year would be nice.

[hasbroherofan]

The Hasbro guys flat out said if they ever do an accessory pack it'll likely be an online exclusive, since getting physical retailers excited about such a thing would probably be a challenge.

[Phantomcrow]

If they do it like the Transformers Drone figure, that would work for me. The Drone was a nice toss in to get all the TF accessories. So they could start with a Vault Guard or something, then toss in like 10 accessories for various figures.

Thats awesome. I missed hearing about that.

Agreed. And if one or the other doesn't sell, Hasbro can always combine the two online exclusives, as sort of a combined value pack purchase.

I'd like to see an accessory pack release for each wave, featuring all the accessories they couldn't cost into the figure assortment itself. So, for instance, the Age of Apocalypse wave could've had an accessory pack with: giant lips and/or raspberry heads for Morph along with Magneto and/or Sabretooth heads, bald head for Weapon X, telepathic effects for Jean, fire effects for Sunfire, alternate head for Beast that better matches the art style from Factor X, etc. Obviously they wouldn't go back and fill out older waves each with their own accessory pack, but they should probably start with a single pack for each of their major sub-lines (at least Avengers, Spider-Man, and X-Men) that fills out some of the biggest needs from the corresponding line's last few years of waves (for instance, an X-Men pack with fireworks effects for Jubilee, bamf effects for Nightcrawler, a more neutral head for Beast, legs for Cannonball, weather effects for Storm, fire effects for Pyro, and a small ice slide for Iceman, etc.).

[GizmoTron]

I think start with effect pieces, webs, capes, etc. and a few unique extra heads and then go from there. Put it all together with a cheap figure for $30 and see how it does.

[Jason Abbadon]

I definitely too think three seperate accessories sets would be good:
-a Magic set, with spellbooks, a summoning circle base so the figure can "float" above it and some spell effects.
- Crime/Street level Set: guns, explosives, cuffs, briefcase full of cash...maybe four hands of playing cards.

-High Tech lab with scanners, a bio-bed for examinations, etc. Maybe a big display screen with swappable displays.

Lots of great ideas here.

[Cyclopswc]

Modern Weapons pack - not only for ML people like Punisher and Deadpool, but also for G.I.Joe! That pack will sell like hotcakes.

X-Men pack: The lower torso and legs of Cannonball. The glasses wearing regular head for Beast like the gray Beast, but in blue. Also Beast's labcoat. Like some already mentioned: more different heads for Multiple Man and energy bow/arrow for Moonstar.

[nighttoremember]

I would be very interested in a series with nothing but accessories. Different guns, magic effects, psychic effects, energy effects ect..
