Top Ten Talk & Campaigning (for Official Top 10 & Wishlist Threads)

How’d I miss this thread? Here are my votes:

Yellowjacket (Hank Pym) - overdue redo, favorite look for character
Valkyrie - overdue redo, one of five females on my list
Colleen Wing - overdue to complete duo with Misty Knight (who now needs a redo), second of five females
Hepzibah - complete Starjammers
Raza Longknife - complete Starjammers
Echo (comic) - love her design and representation
Ronin (Clint Barton comic) - needs a redo to complete New Avengers
Bucky Barnes (WWII) - vital character that needs a redo
Diamondback (Serpent Society) - filling out this team is always a pleasure
Volcana - complete the Secret Wars roster

BAF: King Hulk (World War Hulk) - was between him and Planet Hulk Gladiator, King Hulk would interact with more existing figures

Set: Generation X Synch, Skin, Jubilee - really want to complete this team but they beat Warriors Three by a hair, and I already have so many redos on my list that I didn’t want to add Wrecking Crew

Oversized/MTO: Sasquatch (with Puck) - after modifying the LC Bigfoot, I want an official one. Probably wasting a vote here.
 
I too have a newfound appreciation for how much ground has been covered. I’m down to a few very specific goals at this point.

I want the Frightful Four: Wizard, Trapster, and Sandman (Kirby costume). Ideally, I would like to get an updated Thundra out of the deal as well, but I would be fine to round out the group with the Walgreens Medusa,

I want to complete the original Thunderbolts: Atlas, Meteorite, and Techno. Jolt is optional.

I want to complete what I consider to be the essential early to mid 70s Marvel Bronze Age characters. Nine year old me would tell you that includes any character that had a 1974 Slurpee Cup or 1974 Topps sticker: Frankenstein’s Monster, Dracula, The Living Mummy, Son of Satan, Valkyrie, Yellowjacket, Killraven, Warlock, Beast (Perez/Byrne), and Sub-Mariner (Blue Costume). I’m leaving out the third party licenses: Conan, Red Sonja, Kull, and Doc Savage.

Last, but not least, I want a freaking New Warriors Namorita in her green swimsuit with the ponytail, and a Captain Britain in his original costume would be nice.

Of course there’s a whole laundry list of figures I would happily buy outside of that, but those are the true wants.
 
Regarding the Hulk top 10/20 wishlist...

Am I the only mf on this board who wants a handful of Humanoids to battle my Hulk??? Did someone say Army Builders?
Come on, people!

It's a cool idea, I didn't even think of it until I saw your list. They aren't a top ten want for me, but that's less of a reflection on the Humanoids, and more a reflection on how many cool Hulk villains we're waiting on. When I was drafting my list, I got to thirty pretty fast:

1. Moonstone
2. Abomination (Classic)
3. Crimson Dynamo IV
4. Wendigo (Classic)
5. Thunderbolt Ross
6. Zzzax
7. Bi-Beast
8. Princess Python
9. Man-Bull
10. Ringmaster

11. Vector
12. Ironclad
13. X-Ray
14. Vapor
15. Glob
16. Collector
17. Sandman (Frightful Four)
18. Cobalt Man
19. Missing Link
20. Vanguard

21. Amphibian
22. Torgo
23. Darkcrawler
24. Humanoids
25. Tyrannus
26. Gremlin
27. Harpy
28. Psyklop
29. Space Parasite
30. Hammer & Anvil

Another box set I’d really love that didn’t make my list are the Micronauts. Commander Rann, Marionette, Bug, Acroyear, and Baron Karza.

Too many wants, not enough room.
Given Hasbro owns the IP, why they haven't done more with it in tandem with Legends is baffling.
 
Hasbro has done a really, really great job covering Spider-Man. Yeah, yeah, he's *the* most popular character in the universe, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth celebrating.

Spidey is my favorite Marvel character, and even I get like twenty or thirty characters down my personal "most wanted" list before I hit a Spider-Man character.

And even then, it's D-listers like Stegron and Rocket Racer, or redos like Kraven or Silver Sable.

While this is true and I agree.. Still I have a couple of Spidey characters in my top 20.. Spot and Swarm feel like big missing pieces. Calypso and Overdrive too, really... and I've really grown fond of Pandamania and Hippo...

Good thing the Spider-Man waves aren't likely to dry up any time soon.
