RESULTS ARE IN! The Official Articulated Thoughts 2025 Top 10 Poll

[JRoug]

I'm leaving off rumored stuff (or Inhumans would be my box) and things that I'd like bit are way too obscure to reasonably expect them to be made.

10 standard single card characters - in no particular order

1. Warlock (Gil Kane design)

2. Stingray (Perez)

3. Mantis (honky version)

4. Yellowjacket 1st App

5. Valkyrie (1st Defenders era)

6. Jack of Hearts

7. Baron Blood

8. Annhilus classic (RIP DST)

9. Torpedo (Male, 1st DD appearance - hopefully they could engineer re-use for female version)

10. Rawhide Kid

1 BAF/Deluxe size SINGLE figure: either one BAF or one Deluxe figure.

LOL, like these are ever going to happen again, but 1st app Stegron

1 HasLab/Oversize (Dragon Man model) figure, vehicle, playset, prop.

ManGog is more viable, but I'd love a Western Ghost / Night / Phantom Rider with horse

1 Maximum Series-style figure

Green Goblin

1 Group Boxset - Any grouping that has a name attached

I honestly think Haslabs will need to be figure boxes going forward or they won't fund (past the rumored scaled-down Galactus). There just aren't enough BIG Marvel things they can reasonably make (Fantasticar & Blackbird way too big & expensive, especially with tariffs).

I propose Re-make of the ToyBiz Monsters 4-pack, but adding Living Mummy, Mephisto, Robby Reyes GR, Satana and Man-Wolf. A 1st App Son of Satan would be cool too. Guess you could call it Legion Of Monsters, but not accurate to comics and we don't need another Man-Thing, Morbius (unless they wanna get it right for once) or Blaze GR right now - too soon.
