Heroes and Villains series two

Recommended Posts

I don't know about y'all, but I think the new heroes and villains sets look awesome and it's something I'd love to see continue. So, for the sake of having some fun and killing time until they start announcing more 'mates, lets speculate as to what the next set of 'Heroes and Villains' will bring us.

Remember that the characters need to be big names, but they can be weird variants of those big name characters.

Here's my list:

Heroes-

Extremis Iron Man - a less bulky modern Iron Man

The Thing - Crazy mutated circa early 90s FF

Spider-Man - ish...I don't know... Electro-shock Spidey?

Daredevil - Just an update, nothing fancy

Villains-

Dr. Octopus - in his debonair white suit

Super-Skrull - an Update

Bullseye - Update

Crimson Dynamo - you know, just a quick rejigger of some Iron Man parts, a little red paint and blammo!

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Yes.

well, yeah, but that's more a wish list for the potential AFX exclusive boxset, which can be a bit more obscure because it's targeted a the Direct Market.

I was thinking about the stuff that would show up at Toys R Us.

It's a great list you made though. I already voted and can't wait for round 2!

It's a good idea, and I agree it's different from the AFX survey. So....

Heroes:

-Thor is his current outfit;

-The Thing in a more Mike Weringo style (with long pants);

-A new Human Torch;

-The Black Panther (I know he's not a major player, but he is having a cartoon out soon).

Villains:

-Girl Loki (or the Enchantress!);

-Powerhouse Rhino;

-Baron Zemo (I know he doesn't match up with anyone, but whatever);

- And of course... Kang, dammit! KANG!!!!!

BTW, if you do Electro-shock Spidey, shouldn't you also do, y'know, Electro? :)

I'll take a crack at this as well:

-Modern Iron Man (I feel they could take another crack at it using movie parts) and Mandarin

-Lee Era Cyclops and Mr. Sinister

-Long Pants/Wieringo Thing (Great idea Hellpop) and Annihilus

-Modern Thor and Girl Loki (great idea again)

My choice would be

heroes

1. Cable- the 90's version

2. Thor- maybe Thunderstrike

3. Daredevil

4. Ant Man- As Yellow Jacket

villians

1. Rhino- beefed out

2. Kingpen- a little taller

3. Juggernaught- beefed out

4. Carnage- with removable head to show cassidy. Similar to the Venom mini

I know they don't match up but these are the chartacters I feel could be redone, and made better then the originals. Especially the villians.

Sure, why not. though i'd advise changing the name of the thread to avoid confusion... ;)

Heroes:

Daredevil: Modern or Armored. I'd prefer Armored.

Thor: Modernized.

Cyclops: It's been ages, DST. He needs an update.

Wolverine: Fine, whatever. He's the box seller, so i could care less as long as we update the others. Love to see some Japanese-costuming going on here.

Villains:

Lady Bullseye: She's new and cooler, not to mention more current-continuity accurate.

Loki: Face it. We need female villains and the Marvel Cabal. Good place to start.

Mr. Sinister: Thinking 90's Animated here. He and Scott rumbled. A lot.

Silver Samurai: We're getting Deadpool and Saberteeth!! We need more Wolvie "villains," and if we got a Jap-Logan it's reasonable.

Now do i see these selling?? Nope, because they are mainstream sets with too many obscurities. Shame, because we'd get core updates and a few newbies to boot. :( Not to mention how happy i'd be with them.

I definitely could go for a second series of the heroes/villains multi-packs. Since DST seems to be going for redos of big name characters for these packs here are my picks:

Villains:

1) Juggernaut (w power chest and boots (not duck feet!!!))

2) Doc Ock (really needs be redone)

3) Bullseye

4) Mystique or Carnage

Heroes:

1) Cyclops

2) Daredevil

3) Storm

4) Black Cat or Rogue

I did not think of Juggernaut when I was doing my list here earlier, but he's the perfect choice. Now that the Goblin and Doom are done, he's the mate that most needs an update. Please disregard Powerhouse Rhino from my post above and substitute Powerhouse Juggernaut.

The following lists are based entirely upon who I think would be good for the set in question. NOT who I'd actually like to see made. Truth told, I'd rather have a Jubilee than any of these 8 figures, buuuut, she's just not big enough for the set...

Heroes:

Iron Man (Modern Armor, Redone to be less clunky than the Civil War version)

Cyclops (Jim Lee 90s)

Thor (2007/2008 Relaunch Armor)

Daredevil (Black Costume)

Villains:

Mandarin

Juggernaut (Powerhouse)

Enchantress

Bullseye (Redo)

I think that's about the perfect mix of popular characters and useful updates or additions. I'd love to see some of the characters others have suggested (Darkhawk, Thunderstrike, etc) but I don't think there's much of a chance of them appearing in a boxset that would sell at TRU.
