DSTZach Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Just saw some artwork for Series 26, and it's pretty great. Three new versions of existing heroes, two highly requested. Two new versions of existing villains, one highly requested. One new villain, never made, also fairly requested, if I recall correctly. No real theme, aside from it ranging from fairly recent to current to imminent. X-Men, Avengers, Spidey universes are all represented.

MisterMiracle Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Classic? Modern? Little bit of both? Was there already a line-up for TRU 25? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two new versions of existing villains, one highly requested. I love how this implies that the other two aren't highly requested. I'm sure the rest of you will do a better job that I in sussing these out. But I would think that the new Spider-Man Worldwide suit is a lock, with maybe the new Doc Ock paired with it, though I hope we get the Jackal as the new villain (Zach's hints in the animated thread make me think he won't be here but there, though).

Spider sense Spiderman that transforms to peter/chameleon that transforms to mj. Female beetle, negative zone spidey, some other awesome villain and spidey variant I can't recall right this second Edit: jack o lantern and modern spidey with the glowing green spider on his chest (not big time spidey, regular blue and red suit) Edited October 24, 2017 by Heinous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloDelorean Posted October 24, 2017 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Iron Doom and Superior Octopus would both make sense to me. This would be a good opportunity for Now! Rogue or Cyclops, but I feel like the X-Man will end up being another Wolverine. My first thought for the Spider-Hero was Spider-Ham, since he's been requested pretty often, but he isn't modern.

The not highly requested characters could easily go one of two ways though: 1) They're big names we always get like Wolverine/IM/Cap, or 2) they're slightly obscure characters like Carrion or Blizzard. I am, personally, hoping it turns out to be the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloDelorean Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Is the unmade villain a newer character (like She-Beetle) or a modern version of a classic character (like Collector)? Is Jimmy Hudson Wolverine current or imminent? If we're getting a modern Wolvie variant he seems like a reasonable choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one character/look could be considered classic, and that's the unmade villain. But he's experienced somewhat of a Renaissance in recent years. His costume has not really changed. I suppose one of the requested heroes could be considered classic, as the recent costume is similar to a classic one we have not made.

I am, personally, hoping it turns out to be the latter. The unrequested hero may have been requested once or twice, but not extensively. The costume change is comparatively minor. Big name. The unrequested villain is wearing a very new, I believe unpublished costume. It may become highly requested in the future, but I guess we'll see!

funkguerilla Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Here's some crazy guesses for them clues: Cable / Stryfe Venom / Kraven Hulk (Possibly TAH) / Bulked up Abomination They're characters that could anchor a wave (Venom) or in movies (Cable and Hulk) with a highly requested new character in a classic-esque costume that hasn't changed much (Stryfe) and a highly requested remake (Abomination). What do y'all think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
