Marvel Cinematic Universe Figure Discussion

[Ru1977]

I have an extra Gladiator Hulk BAF head that I put on my Endgame BAF for a 'savage' MCU Hulk. Would love to get something official. The re-release Gladiator Hulk had glorious face printing, but I know it would muck it up to remove the white face paint...

I won't be surprised if this is exactly what the BND figure is. And that won't even really be a bad thing.

 

[erock]

Is that the same body they used for Red Hulk? If so, I would imagine they will reuse as much of that as possible

- Val has secretly been a want so that’s exciting. I’d happily pick her up

Yeah, I really won't mind having her.

- I’m all for ghost and would prefer a taskmaster over Bucky: these seem like obvious holes at the moment

That makes three of us now, heh.

- I’m hoping BND villains are released early on too, the big 3 will sell but we have enough already of them

Hopefully it's a full wave and doesn't continue the new "here's three, now shut up" trend. FF broke it, let's keep going. I guess when you think about it, Quantumania and Marvels had the same treatement, it was just within a mixed wave.

- excited for the fox xmen characters in the doomsday leaks. Cyclops, beast, gambit and night crawler sounds SO good. Especially to pair with the fox/deadpool offerings we already have

Yeah... I'm still of two minds about it, because what if the new X-men they're working on are more what I'm into?! I don't have a lot of nostalgia for the Jackman movies and cast, but I totally get why some do.

- less excited about mystique given she’s already had a nice release

Yeah... that's a puzzler, unless they just need an easy repaint to cut down costs.

- I hope some how we see a storm and Jean grey.

Both are big holes for sure. Storm especially, for me. But it's okay, it's okay, Jake Schreier's X-Men is a solid fallback for me at least.

- my biggest legends want currently is a fox xmen black/leather costume male and female figure 2 pack with swappable heads, akin to the endgame time suit pack. I could see 3 male and female heads (Jackman, Marsden, Ashmore and Famke, Pacquin and Berry).

Again, I get why you want this. Even if I was into those costumes, it would still bother me because they all had their own color for the linings. BUT, what you're saying would probably still be closer than the figures we got of the quantum suits.

Obvs we don’t need more Jackman but they gotta draw people in somehow. I could leave ML if they gave me this….. (and Ancient One, Abomination, Wiccan, Echo, Death, God Loki, Malekith and Whiplash….. okay I’ve got a few more wants before I go anywhere)

Right.... Mutants are my big want before I bow out of the line, but Echo would be a big name on my list too. Death and Loki are definitely ones I'd get as well.

Seems like it, with some little changes. Legs and crotch area seem new.

I feel the Red Hulk in that picture looks more like Ruffalo than the green one next to him.

 

[Schizm]

Really? All the Ruffalo Hulks have a great likeness. The best, though, was DST's Endgame Hulk version 2. Got the sad face EXACT.

I never even realized Rulk there was half re-issue.

But speaking of Brand New Day - new costume "tease".

All those Xs, he's clearly joining the new X-Men!

Spoiler

THR is reporting that Hulk is officially in the movie, as will be Michael Mando. So where is my Scorpion figure?

 

[Ru1977]

It's waiting for you in 2028.

 

[AustinPowers]

I’m considering hunting down a Molten Man BAF Scorpion as a stand in cause I never know if ML will make one …

 

[altcunningham]

That's just it, they are not MCU figures. So they hold no interest to me. I get that they sell. But if they do count as D+ stuff, then those are spots they are taking that could have gone to something I do want.

Yeah, most of the stuff I want from Disney plus isn't even the stuff they make. It's a frustrating place for content all around.

Also, that Savage Hulk basically confirms some of the leaks I saw so that's interesting.

Pretty close to the Final Swing. Less shiny. Wonder if they reuse that sculpt for this movie.

I never even realized Rulk there was half re-issue.

I was really surprised he wasn’t all reissue. But I was even more surprised when I compared the two and he was entirely new aside from possibly the hands and feet.

 

[Schizm]

FINALLY - Tom is on set. So assuming that was shot in the last few days, they really are planning to get a massive VFX blockbuster complete in literally under a year. I'm sure the VFX and stunt sequences have already been in-progress for months, but this does not bode well for Marvel or Sony having learned anything from their past abuses of VFX workers.

 

[Ru1977]

Apparently that is for Brand New Day. Bernthal is also still filming the Punisher Special so he isn't available for BND yet either.

 

[AustinPowers]

It is exciting to have another Spiderman movie so close in the works! Between Doomsday and Spiderman I think us MCUs will be eating good again soon.
