Freaqualizer Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Yeah, I just couldn't handle a third Kitty Pride or a fourth Rogue before I got a first Ulik. I can dig that people want those costumes but I would much prefer getting unmade characters before I got an already released character's unmade costume. I know that kitbashing and customizing is always possible, but the characters I've been longing for don't really have any pre-made parts that look like theirs. Ulik, Malekith, Death's Head, Deathlok, Gor, Gladiator (x-men or Daredevil), Darkhawk, Nightwatch, Cardiac, Slapstick, and the list goes on and on. I think that's why I enjoy the Animated waves so much. We're seeing some brand new, unmade characters that we've not seen before. Sure, there are some re-releases but they're necessary because they're first time releases in the animated style. Anywho, give me classics or give me modern as long as they're new, unmade characters.

TENIME_art Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 @Mirymate (I like this new board feature!) If you compare Ruffalo's Hulk to Norton's Hulk, they're both the Hulk, but they're very different. Since Blonsky likely wouldn't turn back into Tim Roth, I wouldn't have any issue making him look better (my opinion is it doesn't have to be source-faithful if you can make it better - Turdasaurus Rex was not better).

stack32 Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 After reading a review of Hasbro's SDCC boxset I could go for more Thor villains. Ulik, Malekith, and Bor are featured in this set. I wouldn't mind a comic Hela and Executioner either. And, of course, who could forget the Wrecking Crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerdyTrev Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Thor warrants his own wave. Some variation of Thor / Ulik; Some variation of Loki / Hela; Odin / Malekith; Executioner / Radioactive Man I realize that these Radioactive Man kinda comes out of left field, but he was a Thor baddie first and it fills out our MoE ranks. If we're continuing the BaM gimmick, no question that Frog Thor is the perfect choice. Give him the Howard the Duck treatment. Small arms, webbed legs, small torso, new tooled head, small cape. It's perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinous Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Wasn't Thor frog smaller than Howard? I thought he was just as big as a frog? He'd make more sense as a pack in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always dreamed of a 4 pack sized pack with only 2 mates in it... Mimic and the Super-Adaptiod and the rest filled with part and accessories to change their looks. Actually have a better chance of getting a Wrecking Crew 4 pack than this, but its called a dream. 2 hours ago, Freaqualizer said: Yeah, I just couldn't handle a third Kitty Pride or a fourth Rogue before I got a first Ulik.

Yeeeeeeah... I got used to non-X, non-Spidey taking precedence over the everybody else a long while ago. Thor, Iron Man, and Cap have made inroads, they are still not the sales draws X-folk or Spiders are. Check the numbers on the database. 1 hour ago, TENIME_art said: @Mirymate (I like this new board feature!)

No, I get it. I do. But if you're going to have to make changes, you might as well go to more source accurate. YMMV (and I have no idea how this new feature works, or how to add it, but it certainly looks neat.) 27 minutes ago, stack32 said: After reading a review of Hasbro's SDCC boxset I could go for more Thor villains.

From appearances, the T:R Executioner looks about as close to comics as you can get. I'm waiting to hear about the inclusion of the all important Axe, and fingers crossed he get's his helmet too.

BuffaloDelorean Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Yeah, I think Throg would work better as a pack in than a full minimate. I'd really like to get classic Radioactive Man, but he does seem pretty out of place in that lineup. Maybe a bulkier Destroyer would work better? Binary and Secret Wars Professor X would be good too, but Xavier's x-jumpsuit was minor enough that I'd rather see a new Magneto that isn't a TRU exclusive. Ragnarok Executioner definitely looks like his comic counterpart, but more in broad strokes than the same design. You could fake it with some different arms, but I'm holding out for a comic based Skurge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Spider Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) @Kostisfire I'd buy both of those proposed waves and I've been waiting for those X-Men for a longggg time, and the only thing I'd change about the SPN is maybe adding another mindless one in the mix, maybe make Brother Voodoo a chase for Doc Strange idk. Unfortunately with how long it took to get MK I don't think we'll see Mr. Knight any time soon :/ Edited July 28, 2017 by The Scarlet Spider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kostisfire Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 (edited) @The Scarlet Spider Then why are we still here? Just to speculate? Every night I can feel Mr. Knight... and Infamous Iron Man... even the Maker. The character slots that have been wasted... the costumes that have been wasted... it's like they're all still possible... you feel it, too, don't you?

Mirymate Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 @Kostisfire we're here because we enjoy minimates. And we keep hoping that the characters we want will eventually get made. But we also need to remember that our niche wants need to balanced against commercial viability. @NerdyTrev, there is at present no Fantastic Four to give love to. Ben's back in his black and red solo costume, which I'd love a minimate of. Johnny's new Unity squad costume would be welcome as well. His newest Inhuman girlfriend, Synapse could be included as a pack mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mirymate Posted July 28, 2017 Share Posted July 28, 2017 Another wave idea... Wrecking Crew wave. My thought here is though the Wrecker and Co are primarily Thor villains, they've actually jobbered around for a lot of different people over the years. Sooooo... Thor variant / Wrecker Spider-variant / Thunderball US Agent / Piledriver Hercules / Bulldozer technically you could count Walker as a Cap variant, and he fought them as a member of Alph-Omega Flight. They fought Ghost Rider, Excalibur, Heck just about everybody at one point or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker 42 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 (edited) Now I want a wave of Avengers 1000000 BC. The lineup alone is almost it's own wave. Odin/Starbrand Agamotto/Iron Fist Black Panther/Phoenix Ghost Rider/Whoever the villain is Make a Hell-Mammoth BAF (Which is a bit outlandish to ask for but do it anyway) and you'd have yourself a solid single wave. The comic looks fun too. Bizarre team and Jason Aaron is writing? I'm in. It's admittedly unlikely given that it's possibly a one and done team in the Marvel Legacy one shot, but damn it I want an ongoing book of that team. It looks too insane to only do one story.

Mirymate Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 @NerdyTrev No... Trank's film was a symptom of the FOX/Ike war over the FF. For whatever reason Fox cannot figure out how to make a solid Fantastic Four movie to save their life. Marvel is pretty sure they do. And as a result of the fight over the rights, Ike Perlmutter canceled the FF's book and literally sent half of them into near permanent Marvel Limbo(tm). And that the FF not be included in any new video games. (notice anyone missing from Contest of Champions?) Or that's the really persistent rumor. At any rate, Is it true? Or did the FF's book just happened to be finally canceled for dismal sales just before Trank's movie hit? And the lack of FF related merchandise from then until this year's Mr. Fantastic Walgreen's exclusive, that's just coincidence too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
