One A Day 2.0: Day #164 - Maelstrom, Helio, Gronk and Phobius

Of course this one wants a Mantis figure in Legends. She's been in my top 10 for years. Absolutely want her in the classic yellow/green costume with flesh tone. No green or blue skin is necessary or wanted.
A Swordsman 2 pack like the 2nd picture would be a day one purchase. Make it fan channel, Amazon, I don't care. Just make it available please.
 
I'd like to get Mantis in her DnA Guardians look. Really, that whole team is ready for redos/re-releases.
 
Longest running…? Depends on how you view Rick Jones in the Avengers roster. Honorary? Genuine member? Mascot? He’s the oldest Avenger associate without a figure.
 
Day #30 - Quasimodo

Would I buy? YES!
Which version? Handbook preferred, but the face in the weird contraption in pictures #2 & #3 is so cool I'd buy that, too.

Classic Kirby character. Nuff said.

Mantis is obviously a giant yes. Yes to Quasimodo too, he'd be a fun lower-tier villain to get.
 
I'd buy Quasimodo if he got made. Im not advocating for him to be high on the list... but if he showed up in a wave I would definitely purchase.
 
Classic Mantis in human skin tone, please.

There was a time I'd have picked up Quasimodo, but with prices being what they are I'd likely pass.

Excellent point ! I definitely think of Rick Jones as an Avenger and want an official figure of him. I guess I was thinking in terms of people in costumes on a specific roster. Is his A-Bomb phase popular enough to sustain a sort of two-pack with normal human Rick as one of the figures? It's a shame they never did an Avengers Forever ( Kurt Busiek ) wave, that story is literally centered around Rick in key ways. He would make total sense being in that wave. For that matter, why have they never done him in a Hulk wave given how integral a character he is to the Hulk mythos ?
