OK, so we all know what lineups we have in store for the remainder of the Spider-Man and X-Men lines as well as the Marvel Legends. Wehave ML13 right around the corner (or at your house for some of you like SsM and Rough), then 14 (Mojo series) and 15 (MODOK series, if its not canned). So my question to all of you is now that we know whats left what is your Top 5 list of characters that you wish would've been made. Be specific if you like, we all know some characters have had costume changes before. But what I'm asking is which 5 would you have preferred rather than some we got. Hell, even make a Top 5 List of the MLs or SMCs that you'd bump out in place of the ones you want.

Basically this is like the poll that wasin ToyFare 106. They had a vote for which X-Men you would've liked as one of the next MLs. But I don't want to restrict it to just the X-Men. Hell, they have overun the ML anyway. So put it down, your Top 5. Doesn't matterthe mix, it can be all villains or all B and C-list characters. Its YOUR Top 5. Its YOUR call.

Lets get down to business.

I would like to see characters who didn't make it into any lineups of any of the modern Toy Biz 6" action figure series. So yeah, I'm going to break the rules set forth. But hey, this is worth it.

So here-a I-a go-a! The ideal post-MODOK Marvel Legends Series, complete with BAF! And to give it that extra "oomph", I'll make it an all-women series since it'll never happen anyway! :( Sigh.

Tigra - I just love this character. Give her a new body sculpt with faintly sculpted fur details, bendy-wire tail, lots of high-movement ranged-joints. She needs to be a contortionist compared to the regular female MLs. She-Hulk - Another character I love, even more than Tigra. She too needs a new body sculpt pushing seven inches. Not quite that tall, but close. I'd say a tad bit taller than Giant-Man series Thor. Give her standard ML articulation count too. Variant can be a repaint of her in her Fantastic Four uniform. Amora the Enchantress - She of the goofy polka-dot tights. Yup. You heard me right. Squirrel Girl - She's recently jumped up pretty high on the noticeability scale, and I think a Marvel Legend of her would sell well to collectors. Pack her in with a bendy-wire synthetic-fur covered tail and at least five sidekick squirrels (one with a pink bow on her neck) and you got a done deal. Nocturne - Before she got dumped off into the 616 universe, Nocturne was awesome. I miss when she was awesome. She, like Tigra, needs to be a contortionist to the nth degree. Typhoid Mary - Finishing it out with another villain, and another character with swords! Yay!

And for the BAF... let's see... it has to be female to fit in the theme...

Big Bertha. Teehee. :D Arms separate. 2 pieces. Legs separate. 2 pieces. Upper torso with head. Lower torso. Bam. The first and last female BAF from Marvel Legends.

I don't know why Tigra got into BTBGBO...I was trying to be realistic and Jesse said they would never make a Mephesto fig cause he is Satan....OI thought is was good.

There was another Thor Villain, an Avengers Villain, a Female Villain, Namor got a baddy and since Dormamuu would be a hard fig to make I tossed in a Dr. Strange villain that could make a cool fig.

I like it.

And XwolverineX there technically was a ML Venom in the Sinister Six Box Set.

Did they make a Hellstrom (aka Son of Satan)? They definately would have renamed him.

I know they called the movie Contantine "Constantine" Cause they couldn't use HellBlazer.

FEAR THE BAT
05-16-2006, 09:22 PM
My ML16. Here I decided to go beyond the BAF and make every figure have a half of a Multiple Man duplicate. 8 figures in this series would pump out 4 dupes. My reason for making each figure contain half of a dupe is the reasoning behind ToyBiz cancelling the henchman from ML13. They figured a complete figure in addition to the ML was too much so I figure half of a dupe per figure might be doable especially if they had regular cut joints and pin elbows and knees. So the top half of a dupe would have cut shoulders and pin elbows while the bottom would have a T-crotch and pin knees. Now to the actual wave:

Multiple Man (in X-Factor garb with a modern variant with unmasked head and repainted outfit. Both the regular and variant would have a trenchcoat like Gambit's. Also, the variant would have a variant top half of Multiple Man so the variant could atleast have one matching dupe.)

Quicksilver (with FA costume variant)
Nova
She-Hulk (with FF costume variant)
FA Captain America (its was bound to happen with all the other FA figs)
Blob
Grim Reaper
The Russian (because Punisher needs somebody to kill)

spideyboy_1111

FTB ur multiple man idea is cool.. but id rather them just be grunts... it'd be much easier for them just to make a multiple man.. and you just buy afew lol

FEAR THE BAT
05-16-2006, 09:56 PM
True, you make a good point. But if we're buying an entire wave why not incorporate the duplicates. Say the wave had a BAF of Fin Fang Foom or a Mole Monster. We'd have 3-4 of that same damn piece just for duplicates and be paying way more per ML Multiple Man over getting the lineup and having the duplicates. I'm just thinking its a cost effective way of getting Jamie and some duplicates.

spideyboy_1111
05-16-2006, 09:59 PM
meh.. but not everyone would want a bunch of dupes lol plus theres alot of other things id love to see them do first... vehicles, henchmen, more packins, and theres still some large, or semi large characters left to build plus i want a pack in of puck, lockjaw and zabu!

05-16-2006, 10:31 PM

Cyclops
05-16-2006, 10:36 PM
I would have Multiple Man be a Multiple BAF.

Basically, he would be the BAF in the series, buuuut.... you'd get three of each piece as a pack-in. The facial expressions would all be different, though.

SpiderHulkThing
05-16-2006, 10:50 PM
i'm gonna post my top 5 later. I'm thinking that she-hulk will probably make my list. anyway, I really like the hulkbuster idea. I mean, that would make a great BAF. I like x-men a lot, i do, but i am so freaking tired of x-men getting all the glory. marvel legends....right? no just x-men legends...i'm just saying that a hulkbuster would have been a hell of a lot better than a crab onslaught. hell, they could have made a BAF Mr. Potato head look-a-like and it would have been better. And where the hell is the big dragon from iron man? sorry, can't remember the name right now, really tired, busy day.

And i love how whenever someone makes a pick your favorite figs or pick what figs you really want with a certain number limiation, that everyone completely ignores it after awhile. i dont think i've seen a list without, well this and this, but maybe this instead of that. i just think its funny.

SpiderHulkThing
05-16-2006, 10:53 PM
and if they are going to make a spider-man vs. anybody, it had better be spidey vs. chamelon b/c that was the first freakin villain. i honestly don't want to see a spidy face of pack. i would see it as a waste cause they are so dang many spidey figs. but if they had to make one, which i'm sure they will, then i want a battle damaged spidey or something like that. i loved my beat up spidey with that big robot arm armor from when i was a kid. Or maybe a descent armored spidey. i'm suprised they havent made a another manspider spiderman with more possibility.
