Basically they just replaced the variant figure with the build a figure. Which they probably should have done years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Siege is another good guess, and there's plenty of never-made villains in that story (plus, again, Herc) that would make people happy. I’d happily go with Operation Galactic Storm as it could give us Quasar, Gladiator, Lilandra, Death Bird, Binary, MockingBird, Hercules, Vision, Crystal, Sersi, US Agent, Wonderman and even Hawkeye as Goliath.

JeffBohn Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I can't make it fit New Warriors either, I know a couple of us have requested them... Three new characters (my wave is 4)- Night Thrasher, Namorita, Rage, Marvel Boy/Justice Four Redos (I only come up with 3) - Firestar, Speedball (Penance), Nova Otherwise I'm going with a 90's character wave Three new characters - Darkhawk, Speedball, Death's Head (I or II) Four redos - ???

NerdyTrev Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I would love for it to be Operation: Galactic Storm (there's so many great figures to be made), but I can't see it fitting in Zach's clues... On 7/9/2019 at 9:19 PM, DSTZach said: three new characters Easy. Any mix between Quasar, Lilandra, Crystal, Gladiator, Sersi. On 7/9/2019 at 9:19 PM, DSTZach said: two highly requested re-dos and two other redos, one long overdue (only the second version in 10 years) and the other made only once but more recently. Hercules fits the last 10 years description. That Champions set was released in 2009. 90s style Black Knight I can see as the other re-do done more recently. But who would the other two "highly requested" re-dos be? I can't see a Galactic Storm assortment without Captain America (it is essentially a Captain America story) and he definitely isn't due for a redo. Who else is a highly requested re-do? Vision? I've certainly heard cries for a classic Vision, but not the pale, unfeeling Vision present in this story. I haven't seen a lot of outcry for Wonder Man and he's the only guy after Vision I could fathom being a highly requested re-do. I would love to have an assortment based off of Operation: Galactic Storm, but I just don't see it fitting in with the clues. Especially without a Captain America.

montrossx Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Galactic Storm would be awesome! Just read it for the first time a few weeks ago. Are new costumes considered a redo or new character? Vision, Goliath, Binary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on my understanding and previous wave threads, new costumes are still redos. But I could be wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always want X-themed waves but both those check enough boxes of the other stuff I collect that I'd be pleased. A few X-related characters mixed with other cool versions of mates we have.

Based off the clues I think USAgent is the “Captain America”. Is a fairly popular ask for a re-do and along with Wonderman or Spider Woman could fit the “highly requested” redos clues and the storyline. If it’s Operation Galactic Storm I’d say something like: USAgent - Crystal Wonderman - Mockingbird Black Knight - Hercules BaF - Quasar or Lilandra Edited July 12, 2019 by Chigarillo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I'll modify my "highly requested re-dos" to "re-dos of characters that people have been asking for a re-do, even if they're not the exact costumes". Lots of movie versions, few comic versions. and the theme had been discussed in this thread before I showed up. Not Spider-Man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSTZach Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 It will not be out in 2019. 78 will. Marvel Vehicles were not possible from day one. It has always been the realm of others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I just can't get the maths right though. Redo's that are requested would be a comic Peter, Yondo, Gamora, Mantis, Drax and Warlock which could all be in the Annihilation story (or close enough) mixed with people like DarkHawk, Quasar, Lilandra and maybe finally my Vance Astro.

BuffaloDelorean Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Guardians of the Galaxy would make a lot of sense, but the numbers seem off if movie and animated versions mean they've been made before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabriel Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Guardians and Black Panther are the only ones that come to mind when I think of movie characters with oly a few comic versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Ya, comic Guardians make the most sense to me. ...but I wouldn't be surprised if it was modern comic Guardians. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modern as in Abnett/Lanning? Bendis? Cates? Cates seems unlikely since that series just started this year, though it has some very enticing unmade characters Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OvenproofBug6 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Darkhawk, Moondragon, and Quasar are my best guesses for the new characters. As for redos, it's some amalgam of a couple Guardians and maybe some cosmic villains we already have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hellpop Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 It could be more broadly cosmic Marvel, meaning that it wouldn't be limited to just the Guardians (though I imagine Star-Lord is a lock). In that case you could get Quasar, Nova, Gladiator, Mar-Vell, Adam Warlock, Monark Starstalker... lots of possibilities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you are right but I have a feeling we will see GOTG Thing and Star Lord. As long as I get my Vance I will be ok. - as long as he isn’t the build a figure because that will totally piss me off.

The only redeeming thing about a Bendis wave would be Kitty Pryde w/ Star Lord costume, which could easily be a highly requested character that isn't the costume people have been asking for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
