youbastards Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 Wishlist some Build-A-Figure waves! The only stipulation to keep in mind is that the 2 Build-A-Figures we've seen so far are both basic humanoids with minimal tooling. So I'm thinking some waves of decade specific characters would be fun, with packaging designed to represent the era! 70's Marvel - Power Man / Iron Fist - Adam Warlock / Magus - Man-Thing / Living Mummy - Son of Satan / Hellcat - BAF Shang Chi 80's Marvel - Spider-Man (Black suit with purple details) / Kraven the Hunter (sculpted vest, alt. parts for Last Hunt) - Daredevil (with alt Battle Damaged parts) / Bullseye (with alt Battle Damaged parts) - Stealth Iron Man / Black Widow (Frank Miller costume) - Kitty Pryde (X-Men Recruit) / Rogue (1st Appearance) - BAF Arcade 90's Marvel - Deathlok / Darkhawk - X-Force Warpath / Stryfe - Ghost Rider (Ketch) / Johnny Blaze - Gambit / Wolverine (Fatal Attractions) - BAF X-Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I'd like pictures from some of these. Like black widows Miller costume or wolverine from fatal attractions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Fatal Attractions was the story where Magneto pulled the adamantium out of Wolvie, basically the yellow/blue costume with sets of both metal and bone claws and some removeable adamantium tendril pieces (reused Carnage pieces where applicable with some new sculpts) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Fantastic Four BAF Wave - Mister Fantastic (Greatest Hits style with alt Johnny Storm head for body swap) with new stretchy parts tooling / Diablo - Human Torch (painted, not translucent) / Crystal (classic Inhumans design) - Sue Richards (costume matches the GH Reed, include the existing swaddled baby sculpt and a new Franklin minifig) / Namor (classic green trunks look with trident, maybe an alt head) - Thing (all new sculpted head and rocky parts, retire the old molds please) / Silver Surfer (metallic paint, new board sculpt without a foot peg or hole for stand. Instead, make a new stand that the board slides into that Surfer can also attach to. I want to be able to display him both on the board or next to the board.) - BAF Invisible Woman (NOT clear translucent, either a frosted translucent or painted white plastic with detail tampos) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swarm198 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Jarvis, Rick Jones, Micro, Franklin Richards, Pepper Potts, The Watcher, Stick, Dum Dum Dugan, Wong, Happy Hogan, Betty Ross, etc. I know this is a pipe dream, but I’d totally buy a pack with one figure and one giant BAF piece for Galactus, Sentinels, Fin Fang Foom, etc. And Marvel Legends gets a Stan Lee BAF. Now I want a minimates one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got plenty of black suit Spider minimates. why would you waste time giving us one that is entirely specific to your own idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youbastards Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) Jesus, relax man. I'm talking about the muscular details, not the Spider-Man logo. Marvel has used various colors over the years for the detailing on the symbiote suit. All I'm saying is inevitably we will get another Black Suit Spider-Man because the costume is iconic, especially to the 1980's. The last comic version of the black costume we got was in Wave 43 (6 years ago in 2012), and it used blue detailing: Sometimes it's grey or white: Sometimes it's teal: Usually it's blue: Sometimes it's deep blue/purple: Next time, educate yourself before you shit post.

thereasonsy Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 So to take this a different direction... would you guys be open to a BAF display? For example like the Danger Room display we get from the Marvel Select figures. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I guess it would depend how large a display you could make. If it's just big enough for one figure I'm not sure I'd be interested. Now if it gave us a way to display some of the accessories that were mentioned in the other thread that might be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I don't think a BAF diorama would be feasible with minimates. I always say this, but marvel select bases work better with minimates most of the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 I think longtime supporting characters like Jarvis or Moria McTaggert are a good idea; I also like the idea of including minor but key characters from storyline specific waves (like this Syrin woman). And I'd really like to see this as a way to get more villains, particularly older and colorful ones. Here's a story-specific wishlist for you: Avengers Forever: Captain America/Hawkeye Captain Marvel/Songbird Wasp/Goliath Yellowjacket/Kang BAF Immortus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nessex Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Big fan of this idea if it's letting C-listers and supporting cast get made. Moira has beena long time want of mine. I'd love an X-Factor wave with: Polaris with alt parts for Val Cooper & Multiple Man Strong Guy & Wolsbane Havok & Forge Exodus & Quicksilver BAF - Random Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NerdyTrev Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 Some ideal BaM waves for me: Under Siege: Battle Damaged Captain America / Baron Zemo Hercules / Mr. Hyde Wasp / Grey Gargoyle Goliath / Moonstone BaM: Jarvis Fantastic Four: “Lab Ready” Mr. Fantastic / Dragon Man Johnny Storm / Wizard Invisible Woman / She-Thing Crystal / Karnak BaM: Franklin Richards Hulk: Professor Hulk / Abomination Doc Samson / She-Hulk Joe Fixit (trench coat) / Logan Namor / Tiger Shark BaM: Rick Jones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it probably should. I know intellectually that he should be the BAF in this wave, but in my heart I dislike the character so much that I just couldn't bring myself to list him.

Bulky characters would be another good BAF use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shanester Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 BAF stuff has usually been glazed over by DST and I can understand it. However, I think it could add some fun to collecting. Certainly, a little more challenge (if we don't have enough already). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stack32 Posted February 26, 2018 Share Posted February 26, 2018 While we're still early in the BAF era of minimates I think it's unlikely that we're going to get bulked-up characters. The BAF selections so far have been pretty simple minimates and largely made up of existing parts, that seems likely to be the formula. So, Rick Jones? Yeah, probably. Dragon Man? Probably not. But, hey, I guess DST could surprise me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, hey, I guess DST could surprise me. It's all about room in the blister and which character would sell more SKUs. A character like Abomination has a higher Q score than Rick Jones plus he's a cooler looking toy. I'd love to see DST offer a Wendigo that ends up being close to the height it should be.
