Top Ten Talk (& Campaigning)

You know, this is something I was just thinking about the other day. A Marvel Legends Dracula figure based on the old Wolfman/Colan/Palmer series from the 70's has long, long been a want of mine.

And ya know what else would be cool? A Marvel Studios/Disney + Tomb of Dracula Spotlight special (Or better yet, make it a series) and release it around Halloween.
YES YES YES
 
Honestly, they way he "died", (before being brought back), was so lame. He was known for being bullet proof, and literally walking though lava, like he's wading through water, and how's he die? Gets shot in the back of the head. :/ Really? Also Darkoth's "death" was lame, too. He died, from an exploding airplane, while saving the Thing. Yet, he survived point blank shots, from a hand cannon, and falling to Earth, nearly unscathed. Also he could become intangible, at will. But no, he "dies" in an explosion, cause reasons.
 
The New Warriors are dramatically unrepresented. I appreciate your attention to this matter.
Who are you repping for the New Warriors? A never before done character (Slapstick?!) or one of the OG members in a look we haven't seen yet? Namorita seems like the obvious choice, but she's also *clearly* already in the pipeline after the Marrina reveal, so I'm not inclined to vote for her.
 
I almost - almost - felt guilty putting my list together because it's like half redos.

Shatterstar v2, Classic Black Knight, Malekith, Valkyrie, Nova Prime, Punisher, Malekith. But I genuinely want all of these in my collection and I genuinely want them to be better than the stuff we've gotten in the past. I'm pretty much fully on board now with replacing anything that has pinned limbs, for instance. New bodies for everyone. Malekith was a shit figure to begin with, so I've never been happy with that one. So was Black Knight and Valkyrie, really.
Nova Prime is one of my favorite cosmic characters/looks ever, but you could basically tie that figure in a knot if you wanted to, he was so soft and gummy.

So yeah, all really major names for what I want in my collection and I don't really care that they've been done before.
There's no denying that all those characters deserve better figures, and even though I always prioritize newbies I'm *this close* to voting for other X-Force v2 looks myself. And a classic Valkyrie has basically never been made - let's not pretend the early Hasbro 2-pack is anything close to acceptable at this point.

Side note, I've always wished Amazing Yamaguchi would take a crack at Nova Prime/Annihilation Nova - the design is right up their alley and it would make an incredible figure.
 
Once again, I am asking for your vote . . .

. . . for classic Dracula à la Gene Colan!!

It’s time. You know it’s time.

And bonus! If they do it, and do a good job, YOU WILL NO LONGER HAVE TO HEAR ME ASK FOR HIM CONSTANTLY!
Aaight. After much deliberation I went back in and swapped out my #8 for you, Acey-wacey. My Werewolf by Night really needs somebody to talk to about the burden of being damned, and my Blade really, really, and I mean REALLY needs someone to stab.
So, hello Dracula, and Fuck yoooooou Blastaar!

Ahhhh. That felt good.

I eagerly anticipate the inclusion of Puppet Master on your top ten list, good sir. Lol
