DSTZach Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Just ideas right now, but we're looking at what hasn't been done yet and what hasn't been done in a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that case, may I please suggest re-visiting the following characters for Comic versions of: Electro, Rhino, Shocker, Scorpion, Groot, Rocket Raccoon, Abomination, Leader, War Machine, Silk, Wonder-Man, Firestar, US Agent, Spectrum, & Wasp... As for new Comic characters, may I suggest Classic Thunderbolts: Citizen V, Atlas, Meteorite, Mach 1, Jolt, Fixer & Gravitron, Genis-vell Captain Marvel, Binary, 90's Avengers Crystal & Sersi, Deathbird, Imperial Guard, Exodus & Fabian Cortez w/Acolytes, Maverick, Generation X & Emplate, Stryfe, Starfox, Stingray, Darkstar, Ersa Major, Justice & New Warriors, Calisto, Spider-Ham, Boomerang, Radioactive Man, Brother Voodoo, Mantis, Hellcat, Whirlwind, Dreadknight, Kate Bishop, Pip the Troll, Quasar, Deaths Head II, Scream, Typhoid Mary, Blackheart, Ka-Zar & Zabu, Wrecking Crew, Mr. Hyde, Elsa Bloodstone, & High Evolutionary... It would be awesome to keep the Marvel release focus on Comic likeness if possible. I'm looking forward to the X-Men Animated mates and will consider them a cool sub-collection displayed separate; but please only do Animated X-characters that have been made as a Comic likeness minimate previously... It's kind of disappointing sometimes to finally get a long awaited character in minimate form and they are in Movie, TV or to a lesser extent Animated likeness. It makes the odds of getting certain characters again in Comic form in the future quite slim as we're probably unlikely to get pure Comic likeness Squadron Supreme, Medusa, or Man-Thing unfortunately for example... I feel the Marvel Comic likeness line should always be the priority and centrepiece. With Movie, TV, and Animated likeness releases used as way to bring back the A listers like Captain America, Wolverine, Thor, & Spider-Man etc. Edited November 12, 2021 by IamGroot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Young Avengers wave, or even a box set of the original four members (Iron Lad, Patriot, Hulkling, and Asgardian) would be awesome, IMO.

We haven't seen comic Wasp since 2008 (based on her original design), and we haven't gotten Giant-Man since 2012, based on that terrible Heroes Return costume from the 1990s (no offense to you or the rest of the team over at D.S.T.!). I'd laud a figure of Janet's 2000s costume and Giant-Man's 2010 redesign from the Avengers Academy comic series. Or hell, if you guys wanna go REALLY obscure, make a figure of Janet van Dyne's Giant-Girl persona from the Marvel Adventures: The Avengers comic series. It would be a good companion piece to the Lab Attack Ant-Man figure from Best Of Series 3, whose design is based on the Marvel Adventures appearance.

DSTZach Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Comic style is usually forefront, and I think it will continue to be. Animated is wrapping up at Walgreens, and for movies we'll continue to pick our spots. Some of those characters are being considered, some are not, but hopefully you like what we come up with. That said, not sure you can improve on comic Rhino or comic War Machine: Minimate Database: Rhino Minimate Database: Mark II War Machine   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elhonez Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) My 2 cents on Rhino: I love it. But: he's a bit hard to find right now, and that figure (while great), mixes two eras. It's mostly classic, but has the studded gauntlets of the 80s Sinister Syndicate version, making it a cool amalgam but technically inaccurate for either.  My current wishes, for Spidey, FF and Avengers-related: I know Chuck's a huge Spidey fan, and y'all have gone pretty deep, but there are still a few classic characters I'd love to see, some which round out villain teams: Madame Web, Beetle (80s), Boomerang (80s), Swarm, Shocker (classic), Mr. Hyde, The Owl For FF-family, there are The Inhumans, The Watcher, Dragon Man, Thundra, Diablo and Psycho-Man Overall, I see the greatest opportunity / representation gaps in Avengers Villains ex: Attuma, Wrecking Crew, Whirlwind, Grey Gargoyle, Count Nefaria, Graviton, Tiger Shark, Man-Ape, Batroc, Blacklash, Serpent Society, Ringmaster, many many more  Edited November 14, 2021 by elhonez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact I don't own any of the characters on the re-do's list as yet is another factor haha Please do tell me if any of my re-do suggestions are ridiculous long shots to ever get re-made though and I'll just bite the bullet and buy the current versions when I can... 3 hours ago, DSTZach said:   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nandoninny Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 (edited) my wishlist at this point would be 90's (almost toybiz) based: maverick stealth wolverine (in his dept h outfit) strife other than that, i'd love a wrecking crew box set.  secret wars is one of my favorite stories of all time and i've always wanted them for my set up  and while i'm here, random 90's stuff like sleepwalker, new warriors. ok, so there're still a lot of characters i want.  but i do think we knocked out a couple i was asking for this year so i'm happy.
