Maybe classic Wasp preorder to ship when Giant-Man does?
Probably the rumored Mystique & Destiny 2-pack.
Possibly the rumored Iron Fist 2-pack.
I'd love a classic Mantis & Swordsman 2-pack, Crystal & Lockjaw set and/or Triton & Gorgon 2-pack.
I’d really like if they took another crack at the Byrne suits again, eventually. I don’t feel like there was a lack of desire for that version of the team, but more because they just did a shitty job the last time.
I've never been happy with the blue they choose for those costumes. Byrne's suits were a VERY dark blue, almost black. And they always make them a brighter blue when they make figures of them. They should be a Dark Navy Blue at the very least.
Judging by the cardbacks on those figures, they were based on the FF animated series from the 90's, in which the blue on their costumes was much lighter than it was in the comics.
Based on the wording of Dan's post I'm thinking 60's Wasp may be the most likely. I doubt it will be much more than that right now and we do know it's coming.
Leaked image of an Astonishing Wolverine on reddit. The body has sculpted details on it. Ball jointed diaphragm and inverted ab crunch.
Is this real or just a custom?

they're saying its a factory sample, and the guy who posted the image has samples of Superior Spider-Man and an Odin.
We really haven't gotten a full-team, on-model version of either the early years Kirby FF or the Byrne FF, especially in terms of Reed and Sue. Close but not fully there, not to the extent we have gotten artist specific X-Men, Thor, Spidey etc., at times.
Of the remaining FF villains, Diablo I think has the most distinct look.
I will be pretty excited to get a Puppet Master and Alicia Masters 2-pack when that gets released in 2040, and by released I mean I will be able to ask the AI driven 3D printer to make me one at that point. (Which is, in all seriousness, where I suspect action figures will be in the future...)
FA Wasp going up for pre-order next week makes sense as it fits in nicely with the Gold early appearance IM.
Now that we have Angel, I fully expect an Amazon-exclusive 5-pack of either X-Factor or graduation suit X-Men. Graduation suit Angel, a Cyke repaint/reissue, the Jean Grey that came in the House of X wave with a classic head, "Human" Beast, and maybe a non-iced Bobby Drake would make a fun set. Rinse and repeat (more or less) for an X-Factor set.
I also hope we get a classic Prof X - repurpose the wheelchair that came in the Fox X-Men wave, and take the head sculpt from the Riders series and put it on the suited body.

In 2040 I'll be 81.
Ouchie!
Why isn't there more chatter about that Wolverine? I'm taking it with a massive grain of salt, but holy smokes. It's nearly perfect. All that's really missing is a ball-jointed waist. I'll gladly take one and upgrade my brown-costume Wolvie anytime.
I'm still convinced that the fact we got the "inverted" Future Foundation Spider-Man in the 60th Anniversary line means they have/had plans for a proper set of Future Foundation figures. II can see the white Foundation looks being a good option for comic figures while the Fantastic Four make their MCU debut as they're very distinct from the classic blue/black that will be adapted for the screen.
Yep. I'd be shocked if they weren't on the docket already.
I don’t know where to ask this, so I’ll do it here. Does the new board have a buy/sell/trade forum like the old board did? I have so MLs and MOTUC figures lid like to sell, but I don’t know the proper way to go about it now. If there even is a proper way now.
There is not one. Ebay/Mercari/FB Marketplace. OfferUp, maybe? Those are the ones I know about.
Yeh, hope they'll reestablish the trading section here one day. That was probably my favorite thing about here.
The lack of direct messaging is the challenge for a trade forum

Indeed. You either have to take it to email, or try to find each other on another platform and message there.
