I can't consider Avengers West Coast complete until we get a more accurate Wonder Man.  The modern one we got doesn't work and the safari jacket look was retired after the mini-series that led to the regular WCA series.

I agree with @Justice, I'd love to see a West Coast figure of Wonder Man in the late-80s/early-90s black-and-red costume, hopefully with an alternate smiling head.

For incomplete teams, I want some Spider-Man villain teams completed.  I know Overdrive was rightfully mentioned, but white Armani suit Doctor Octopus with bendable wire tentacles, classic Hobgoblin with an alternate demon face, armored Rhino, purple-and-blue suit Boomerang, a repainted classic Beetle and Scorpia (for the Sinister Seven) are all top wants of mine.  I wouldn't object to a classic green-and-orange suit Doc Ock on a new body mold and a new classic Shocker with human eyes instead of white lenses, either.  I'd even take armored Hydro-Man, Mac Gargan as Venom, and "Marvel Knights" costume versions of the Vulture and Electro for the Sinister Twelve during Mark Millar's run.

On the subject of Spider-Man, do you guys think we'll see some figures for the first Spider-Man wave for 2025 next month or so?  This is usually the time of year we see what's coming up for Our Friendly Neighborhood You-Know-Who's next Marvel Legends wave.

wake me up when we get actual news on proper full X-Men waves. It's been forever since we didn't get a regular BAF wave or even a Retro wave for the mutants. 

I won't feel satisfied until we have a OG versions of Marvel Boy and Namorita for my New Warriors dislpay.  The 1-2 punch of wrong era costumes for them really hurt. Then I'll start begging for Silhouette.

Add a red suit “kid” Nova, a “mullet-head” Nova, and a leaner Speedball.  It really does seem that their attempts at the original New Warriors are pretty half-hearted.

For the original New Warriors, I'm mostly satisfied with Firestar, Night Thrasher, and Nova (classic blue and the red Marvel Unlimited bonus figure - it's good enough for a short-lived look like that). I'd take a straight redo of Speedball on the Amazing Fantasy body, a classic Marvel Boy (skullcap and open hair heads), and of course Namorita in her green suit. Add Silhouette, Bengal, Slapstick, and Sphinx to really make things interesting.

I feel like we need a classic uniformed Nova on a slightly bigger buck. I don't know why, but to me he feels too small compared to some of the other members, and I always picture Rich as being taller.

Also, I'd love to see a Nova in more of a retro colorway (yellow instead of gold, and a slightly brighter/more saturated blue). 

See... this is why we can't have new characters.     Because we have people who want us to a slight tweak of a C-list character they've already done (3 times).   We've got Rich in the more updated Nova outfit first, then in the more classic Nova outfit, then as a subscription bonus the brown outfit he wore at the very start of New Warriors and yet it's not enough.    Sigh...

Take heart,  if the rumors are true and Nova really is slated to show up in the MCU soon there probably will be more Nova figures to come.

Truthfully I was just waxing poetic, @panthercult. Ideally, I'd much rather have new characters as well. But it doesn't stop me from still dreaming of a second shot someday.

Oh, I know -  I was being slightly tongue in cheek -  it's honestly not like three guys here saying they want another classic Nova is what tips the scales at Hasbro.

If that were the case we would DEFINTELY have Rachel Summers Phoenix and green costume Banshee by now.

I don't begrudge people this - it really feels more like meeting the line where it is with the slight imperfections/modest improvements on redos model. Nova is popular enough, there's no doubt the existing figures could be improved on, and after so many years without a figure making him again gives new collectors a chance to get one. Plus, it's the Nova Corps - make a new version with a few different Corpsmen heads and we can get new characters AND an updated classic version.

Not saying anybody should be putting a Nova redo on their Top 10, mind you, but I get the desire to request improvements - especially when the remakes are all but inevitable.

Yeah, that's the inherent "problem" with a line like Marvel Legends. The pool of characters yet to be made is incredibly deep. Add to that the longevity of the line leading to figures becoming outdated. These are great problems to have, but will definitely lead to some picayune daydreaming for lifelong fans like many of us on this forum. Hoping we continue to get a mix of new characters and redos, heavy on the new. I will be sad when this line ends (if I'm still alive to see that day).

Nova getting MCU treatment doesn't necessarily mean we'd get more comic Nova figures.  If anything, it means it's less likely.   We get comic versions of MCU characters before they show up in the MCU or after, but ML will focus on their MCU look(s) while the movies are current.   I think maybe the Annihilation era Nova could use a redo just because of the gumminess of the existing figure, but it's still a decent figure.  I'm not sure how many Nova figures we really need though.

If they do a wider release of the New Warriors Nova that was bundled with the subscription it would be cool if they gave him a new torso with sculpted jacket/button details.
