Wanna explain your vote or advocate for a neglected character/corner of the Marvel Universe? This is the thread!

Personally, I'd like to say the only reason I omitted skunky-fresh Hepzibah, Doc Samson, and Mole Man from MY submission is because they're all included in the rumored releases list.

Also, please allow me to do a little campaigning for my boy PUPPET MASTER!!! Come on, people! Think of how utterly awesome the handful of tiny puppets would be!
 
The gut punch of the box set kills me. I chose Asgardians for now, but U-Foes, Invaders are right up there.

Also, for the Deluxe, I chose Mangog, but Armor could easily take that spot. I chose here with smaller add-ons.

I literally have 1000's of figures, and still have a really hard time making a top 10 list because there's so many more I want.
 
Good idea to separate out the chatter! I'm going to repost from the other thread:

Like Beamish mentioned, we will be doing card sets again this year to deliver to the team at SDCC, just like we did last year. If anyone is interested in getting a set for themselves, shoot me a PM. They aren't super cheap - probably around $35/set after shipping - but I'm more than happy to make and distribute the extras if people are interested and able to cover the cost.

I am in the exact same boat - I always struggle to whittle my list down, and yet I STILL make the mistake of scrolling through and seeing what other people are voting for and causing myself even more problems.

Only Robbie came off of my list officially last year, but I'm probably dropping Attuma from my list as well - he's probably a lock for first place, and I need all the space I can get to vote for various Serpent Society members!
 
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!
 
Training Uniform Kitty Pryde! Now that we've got the ball rolling on the New Mutants especially. We have everyone else in their era-appropriate costumes for a Cockrum/ Byrne display:

This may contain: a group of superheros are flying through the air


... easy tooling, fills out an iconic team, and reuse potential for the New Mutants. My dream would be Kitty and powered-up Magma in a BAF wave, with an Amara Aquila head included for Magma that could be swapped onto the Kitty training uniform buck.

I would love for just one MCU character to end up on the list. I know there's not a ton of MCU collectors on here though.

It's shocking to me that Echo still doesn't have a MCU figure.

The biggest reason that I don't collect movie figures is that I'm burnt out on actor changes. See Batman / Spider-Man. You just know that multiple actors are going to play any given A-list character over the course your lifetime.

I also don't collect multiple versions of most characters. Which is why you'll never see a character on any of my lists that already has a Marvel Legends figure. If they have a figure, they're basically disqualified from consideration for me personally. I fully understand that most people don't feel that way. I like to have just one "definitive" version of any given character in my collection at any given time. I don't need different costumes or any artist specific looks, personally.
 
Good to see the vote back and Jack doing well - with other big hitters getting ticked off by Hasbro left and right, I reckon he’s got a good shot this year. Just imagine how cool he’d look.

Otherwise, new rules state that in the event of any tiebreak, the winner will be determined in reverse alphabetical order (got to wring out a few extra places for my top 10 mainstay Zzzax…)

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.

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.
