ML Secret Wars

@PantherCult - Black-and-red "Battleworld"/wrestler suit Thing and Volcana would be wonderful additions, but I would prefer them not to be exclusives. Black and red suit Thing, Volcana, and red and white-stripe suit/"Secret Wars II" versions of Colossus are figures I've heard a lot of fans want to see made.

Also, I'm going to repeat it until it happens -- I'm hoping for an updated classic suit Thor, an updated Doc Ock with bendable wire tentacles, and a new Hulk where the chest doesn't crack/break and better alternate heads, whether it's for the "Marvel Legends Series Secret Wars" or future "Marvel Legends" waves. Please make it happen, Hasbro!

Don't forget a classic version of Doctor Doom. We now have 2 original Secret Wars Doctor Doom final look versions and multiple more modern armor versions in the main line. We need the iconic Kirby or even Byrne classic Doom in the line ASAP.

But do we need that as part of the Secret Wars line?

Sure its necessary.... maybe on an FF card or in a regular wave, tho?

I don't care where he shows up, but a classic Doctor Doom is long overdue.

I don't care where Hasbro slots a classic Doctor Doom. Just get it done. Doom is arguably Marvel's greatest villain and they still haven't made his most iconic look. Mind boggling!!!
Maybe with Avengers Doomsday coming out, but I'm not going to hold my breath....

Doom is *definitely* Marvel's greatest *character*

Fixed it for you.

 

[Misfit]

Man, I'm not a big Doom guy, but if Hasbro ever put out a Doom where the figure was painted to look like that Kirby cover I'd buy it in a heartbeat. NECA has done deco like that in the past, so it certainly can be done if they're willing to pay for it.

This please...

 

[Thor-El]

Wasp is one of those characters I’m more than happy to buy over and over.

I agree with both of you. A new classic Doctor Doom is not only long overdue, it's surprising that Hasbro still hasn't gotten the look of Doom's helmet/mask right yet. If he doesn't have some "Kirby crackle" energy effects for his hands, then what's the point? And I know that the green-and-purple suit look for Wasp is mixed at best by fans, but I'd still love to add it to my collection. And a new Wasp toy needs a "shrunken" Wasp figurine with it.

That said, the #1 "Secret Wars" character I think most fans can agree on that we need a figure of is Volcana. We need more female figures, especially more female villains, and Volcana made her debut in "Marvel Super Heroes Secret Wars", so why not give her a long overdue action figure? I'm also hopeful we'll get a new, non-exclusive figure of classic red-and-blue Spider-Man that isn't battle damaged or half symbiote covered on the "Amazing Fantasy" body mold. Then again, I'm surprised that Hasbro has yet to make new figures of classic Spider-Man, classic Doctor Doom, Doctor Octopus with bendable wire tentacles, and classic Magneto with a removable helmet and removable cape, since they were all in the original "Secret Wars" toyline by Mattel. I know Kang was in the original wave of eight figures too, but I don't know if they'd make a new Kang so soon after the recent figure.

Also, I'd love to see this "Secret Wars" series last for at least two or three more waves. There are so many characters I'd love to see them make for this series from the 1984 "Secret Wars" comic, "Secret Wars II" and as first-time figures on this card art.

Secret Wars Cyclops in his Phoenix 5 attire is rumored/leaked for 2027. Could be a one-off exclusive, could be part of a wave, could be completely false.
I guess time will tell.

 

[Andru]

Wasn't there an unreleased Phoenix 5 Cyclops shown at a con years ago?

 

[Thor-El]

And a new Wasp toy needs a "shrunken" Wasp figurine with it.

Loudest possible yes. This should be the case with EVERY Wasp figure that gets made.

That said, the #1 "Secret Wars" character I think most fans can agree on that we need a figure of is Volcana.

Also an enthusiastic yes. It's criminal she's being overlooked in the very series in which she was introduced.

 

[NORM]

It's weird, every figure from my Pulse order shipped - Magik, Daredevil, Falcon, Absorbing Man - EXCEPT Constrictor. Still just sitting there. Anyone else in this boat?

 

[Schizm]

I'm hoping Target unblocks Magik, Constrictor and Absorbing Man's pages before the sale ends.

 

[Enforcer]

Finally managed to get a Constrictor without the dinged up butterfly joint. I've warmed up to him a bit. As for the deco on the back... I will choose to believe that he is from the issues where the artist was too lazy to draw it on, and thus was not there. Canonically.
