One A Day 2.0 Day #391 Guest Starring renfield75 - Phantom Eagle

[PantherCult]

Fancy kimono Mariko is one civilian figure I'd consider... especially if it came in a two pack with Kimono Logan.

But I would buy the red samurai armor Mariko. I hated the Sunfire thing so hope they stay away from that.

 

[Billium3]

Kimono Mariko would be a Pre-Order, but the red armor would be a huge pass.

 

[TheSameIdiot]

Mariko in armor is something I'd seriously consider.

A sword-wielding woman in armor? Say no more.

I mostly think of Mariko in her kimono, which would make for a really boring toy.

Day #391 Guest Starring renfield75 - Phantom Eagle
Many thanks to renfield75 for suppling 99% of the pictures!

Would I buy? Day #1 instant purchase
Which version? Classic

Phantom Eagle is just so toyetic. He would look incredible in any display. Can you imagine a Legendary Riders set with Phantom Eagle and his plane?
Hasbro's reluctance to touch anything WWII related besides Cap and Logan is ridiculous and infuriating. Since Phantom Eagle actually represents WWI, he may have an even harder chance at ever getting made,

 

[AceofKnaves]

Yes indeed to classic Phantom Eagle.

 

[Thor-El]

I'd pass to be honest. He's not a character I have much of a passion for, and there are other characters I'd much rather have first.

 

[BasilElks]

Classic 80s handbook version, for sure.

 

[Reno]

Yes, I'd buy - but not a high priority.

 

[PantherCult]

Would I buy? Yes. Do I need him? Probably not.

 

[DetectiveHoag]

I’m not clamoring for him, but if they made a classic PE (Handbook) I’d likely get him. Unfortunately if they actually did the plane too, it would just be out of my budget. But as a single release, sure.

 

[tasmaniantwister]

Absolute yes to Handbook Phantom Eagle. Not only would he look cool but he shows the breath time-wise of the Marvel Universe. Would be up for the plane as part of a Legendary Rider's set but also have some concerns about cost and display space.

The Counter-Earth version's definitely not a priority but would also be a pick-up.

 

[Chooch555]

Classic would be an easy purchase.

 

[TFitz]

No recollection of him, so he'd be a discount purchase at best.

 

[Billium3]

I'd buy Phantom Eagle, especially if he was a MTO with his plane.

 

[renfield75]

He's my pick so obviously yes! Always thought he'd make a striking figure, even though we'd certainly never get his Freedom's Five teammates (other than the Union Jack we already have). I know he was World War I and not WWII, but I would probably put him in the back of an Invaders display as an "early influence". Kinda like how I have first appearance Wolverine in the back of the Alpha Flight display.

Or he could always go with Ghost Rider's villains or on a supernatural shelf since he came back as a ghost. He would just be fun to get!
