MisterPL Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 That's still four more than DST is allowed to make but I get your point. This is all I'm asking for; a stand that doesn't qualify as a toy "vehicle" (IE - no rolling wheels) and allows my existing Ghost Rider Minimates to straddle it.

stack32 Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I agree that it ought to be reasonable to do a stand like that, but toy licensing terms seem to largely unreasonable so I guess I can't fault DST for not pushing too hard. I suppose they see themselves in something of a precarious position regarding the license, between a block and a hard place as it were.

buttheadsmate Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 I'm not sure but there seems like there have been more than a few 'cycles that GR has ridden ........what would be the chances of everone here getting the 'one' that they wanted ? Block & a hard place is right . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mystery Man Posted January 27, 2015 Share Posted January 27, 2015 Falcon. Gimme that f@$&in classic one that Kirby drew so well. Although a Thor Destroyer would be hella cool if it was bulked up and could double as a regular Destroyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose they see themselves in something of a precarious position regarding the license, between a block and a hard place as it were. I'm not even suggesting pushing it. Just friggin' try. As someone with experience with Marvel and Disney licensing, sometimes all you have to do is run it through the submission process. No red flags, no statements like "I know we're not supposed to do vehicles but there's kinda precedent and this is really just a stand..." Simply submit the concept, business as usual, for yet another stand (that happens to look like GH's motorcycle) and see how far it gets.

Dio Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I vote for Spider-Man TTA. 1. Iron Spider Armor/Scarlet Spider (with actual gold arms on the back), 2. Superior Spider-Man 2 with a tampo on the head, 3. Spider-Thor, 4. Bag-Man Accessory: Spider-Ham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liney Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 I haven't read the whole threat,, so forgive me if it's been mentioned/ruled out, but surely Kang is an ideal candidate? Definitely qualifies for 'through the ages' and would give those who missed him the first time round a second chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) I think somebody did already mention Kang. I feel like a Kang set would be a terrible idea (no offense). Does a casual Marvel or comic fan even know who Kang is? My top 3 so far of all of our suggestions have been: 1. Punisher 2. Ghost Rider 3. Spider-Man As much as I'd like to see another yellow Daredevil or a classic Thor, I'm not sure I want 4 more figures of these two.

Onyx_6 Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 But the set would have Iron man lad in it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give me a 4-pack with Yellow Daredevil and his backpack, a decent Matt Murdock 'mate, and a couple villains (Owl, Lady Bullseye) and I'm happy.

Zak Katz Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Yellow Daredevil, White Elektra, Purple Man, and then I'd take a regular Bullseye, but I'm not sure if I would rather have the mask tampoed on his head, or a mask similar to the originals, probably the later. He should also come with accessories like Longshot came with, him throwing something... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stegron01 Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I totally agree though I think there is much more chance of getting the FA one paired with a spiderman in a "team up" kind of pack, or better still with an arcade! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterMiracle Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I don't know...a lot of these guys just seem way too obscure for this kind of box set. To give you an idea...I recently taught a Spanish lesson on colors where I combined the Royal Rumble (30 entrants, 1 every 90 seconds) and students had to write down what colors the heroes/villains were wearing. Out of my 92 students, the vast majority did not know who guys like Magneto and Daredevil were who I thought were solid B level stars. 1 kid knew who Moon Knight and Iron Fist were.

CrimsonDiablo Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Magik through the ages. Re-release the new mutants version, Darkchilde, Phoenix Five, Marvel Now version Cyclops through the ages. X-factor blue and white, 90s with bomber jacket, post apocalypse eve of destruction costume, and Marvel Now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronan The Accuser Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 As a guy that loves some villains, i'd be thrilled to see a Kang set like some have suggested. My perfect set would be Kang redux (with an unmasked head perhaps?), Immortus, Rama-Tut and Scarlet Centurion. I'd buy it! I have zero interest in Iron Lad or any of the YA. I've got enough Avengers lineups I'm trying to complete and don't need another. Though I do think they'd make a nice box set on their own.
