TM2 Dinobot Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 I'd go with Cap and Hercules (He-Man outfit) in one, Thor and either Scott Lang in the original Ant-Man gear, Black Knight, or Wasp in the other. I pick those characters because they feature prominently in a clash between the Avengers and the Crew when the Wrecker and company were part of the 4th Masters of Evil. Cap and Thor could be roughed up a little just to make them distinct versions and not straight redoes. If you're wondering, I'd choose this Wasp costume, the one she wore while fighting the Masters/Wreking Crew: Not trying to drive this deeply into wishlist territory, just making my suggestion more plain. You know, with new arms and legs, and a slightly altered hair piece, and one of those crests like on Star Saphire, and a skirt add on, that'd be incredibly close to my preferred version. So yeah, let's do it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 The poll theme has been chosen. The poll will be revealed in mid-June on toysrus.com. Six characters have been designed. You will pick four. Everything else is... Eternal Wishlist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Clearly, the theme is "Zach Oat, Party Pooper". If ya didn't want this thread to turn into a wish list/speculation thread, you shoulda told us the theme! (that's right, you get the roll eyes emoticon).

Mirymate Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 Don't think of it as a wishlist, so much as a way to pass the time until mid June. Otherwise the thread will die and slip to the second page by the time of the poll, which will mean some well meaning soul will start a new thread about the set when the poll comes out, and it''s be 9 or so posts in before someone starts complaining that we already had a thread for this, that will take up another 4 or 7 posts of fuss, snark and apology. This thread will be nerco'd, the two threads will run concurrently for a while, until one of the mods merge them, confusing everyone involved. So to save us from all that, we'll wander hoplessly off topic, into and out of wishlist mode, until the actual day there's something relevant to talk about. Believe me, you'd rather that than when it actually gets quiet around here. That's just... creepy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valo487 Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 So is there no chance the runners up will be made? The Secret Wars and Galactus sets saw some (or all) of the runner up characters get 'mates as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 the theme is Zach Oats is god. If that's the theme, then we just have to figure out which six characters in the Marvel Universe have the most kickass sideburns.

If that's the theme, then we just have to figure out which six characters in the Marvel Universe have the most kickass sideburns. So, the Heavy Hitter is going to be a Wolverine, then? Although, if it's just about facial hair, then that's a good way to get some mustached menaces out there too, say, a french guy who jumps a lot.

And Sabretooth, I guess. Who else? Sebastain Shaw? I suspect Googling "Marvel Comics Sideburns" won't do much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread will be nerco'd, the two threads will run concurrently for a while, until one of the mods merge them, confusing everyone involved. So instead, every couple of pages someone will wander in here asking what the theme of the poll set is, because the facts of the matter will be 20 pages back and NOBODY reads every page in these massive threads. OR they will get all excited that, based on the current page's raging debate, the theme is apparently Former Great Lakes Avengers. (Cue rampant speculation as to why I randomly chose that team name out of all the team names I could have chosen.) So to save us from all that, we'll wander hoplessly off topic, into and out of wishlist mode, until the actual day there's something relevant to talk about. Believe me, you'd rather that than when it actually gets quiet around here. That's just... creepy. Yes, because there is nothing else to talk about. May I suggest the Series 49 thread? I hear it's a hotbed of activity, considering it's about a line that doesn't exist yet. :biggrin: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

groundhog7s Posted May 14, 2012 Share Posted May 14, 2012 So, Zach just confirmed Squirrel Girl is getting made. Since they're doing a Former Great Lakes Avengers theme, SG is a shoe in. Thanks for the awesome news Zach! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellpop Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Except they're doing the original GLA, from the Byrne's WCA (or ACW, I guess), so they can shoehorn Hawkeye in there, since he's a big gun and all. So no Squirrel Girl, sorry. But hey, at least you'll get such great, classic John Byrne designs as Really Fat Woman and the Guy Who Looks Just Like The Badger!

TENIME_art Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 And a second box set with Shriek, Carrion, Demogoblin, and one of Spider-Man's allies during Maximum Carnage (Firestar, Nightwatch, Morbius, or whomever). Cardiac. It'd be the only way we'd get a Minimate of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
