This is how they should have done classic costume Moondragon - the costume didn't have to all the way down past her navel as depicted in 1990's Infinity Watch, just to the navel or just above it. Full one-piece bathing suit/leotard style covering all of her rear as depicted in the 1970's-1980's. Add in the side cut outs.
Same if/when they ever do classic Mantis - the bodice can be modified to go just to the navel. Same with Lilith Drake and any other character with a low cut top.
Any comments from Hasbro about "too risque" in these circumstances just don't wash anymore. Just modify the classic look.
See I see those more and say that fishnet paint job works well enough for a classic Gamora.
If I squint and look at her I can almost see Karnilla.
@tsi it's just a single ball joint at the waist. She can rotate and lean in every direction, but the range is mediocre. It's at least cleaner than a cut-swivel joint, but an additional ball joint in the torso is needed for more dynamic poses.
@beamish Agree 100%! I hope they eventually do a more classic inspired Moondragon (and Mantis is a must).
How about a Haslab Simonson box set?
Simonson Thor
Balder the Brave
Fandral
Hogun
Volstagg
Executioner
Loki
No tiers everything included. You think this would have a better chance of funding?
Don’t really like the head on the new Jean at all.
The relatively straight hair is at odds with the full, puffier hair from Claremont’s run. I do vaguely remember that she had straighter hair while wearing this uniform again in the late nineties, but I’m certainly more interested in approximating the classic appearance than that era.
i have the earlier Phoenix ML, and I like the head/hair on that one more. As much as I’d like that Phoenix accessory, I think I’ll pass.
Very interested in the Rogue two pack, though. Both of those figures look really nice.

No matter which way you spin it, I’d be terrified that it wouldn’t fund and we’d be screwed out of those critical and long-delayed characters.
True. But if they went to all the trouble to render these characters and create a HasLab, maybe some of these characters we want would actually come out. Goblin Queen and Son of Satan have already been released from the failed Engine of Vengeance campaign. I really want more from Thor's world. Come on Hasbro!
I used to be adamant that the only Marvel HasLab I'd ever back would be a Mk II FantastiCar
We already have one that's pretty spectacular aside from a few wonky engineering issues with how the individual cars attach together. Not sure why I'd need another given that the existing one fits all of the most recent FF characters and that it's almost always available on the auction sites.
That car has been available continuously since I started collecting Legends in 2018. People seem to now realize how good it is though because it used to be available for under $50 when I bought it in 2020, but now people sell it for $100 to $200.
Are you talking about this one, or the one from the FF/Silver Surfer movie?
The one in your pic IS the one from the movie, and that's the one I have. The one in your picture is a re-release of the previous one but with a style of "4" stickers that matches the font style of the "4" logo from the film, plus it comes with Ioan Gruffudd as Mr Fantastic.
The stickers from the original release of that car have the same classic style of "4" that's on the chests of the figures in your pictures.
My vote for the HasLab (like I'd have one) would be a Krakoa playset. It wouldn't have to be anything crazy. The tree with the face, a portal, some minor landscape with plants/trees. Maybe the table the council sat around... Large enough to pose say 6-8 figures total on/around. That would be epic for me, personally. It could even include tiers of characters like Cypher or the characters that helped the resurrection process... Something simple enough to keep it around $250 or so.

I just want more Thor-related characters really, REALLY BADLY, and am terrified of them getting stuck in some stupid release format that either makes them unattainable or eBay scalper fodder.
I want to want that Phoenix, but the heads aren’t great. $40 I can probably convince myself, anything more and it will be a pass for me.
I am pleased by the lack of high heels though. I wish they would implement that on all of the female figures.
