If you are a collector with a decent size collection, Avenger shelves are hard. I have two Avenger shelves and and Ironman shelf and that's that. I'm not getting too team/era specific.

This is a few years old but The Avengers are my jam. All of them mashed together...

Hopefully this year the ToyBiz Falcon and Hasbro Yellowjacket and Warbird will be retired for new versions.

And we'll get a Mantis/Swordsman 2-pack.

And a Crystal and Lockjaw 2-pack.

And Stingray in the Deadpool wave.

And Jack of Hearts.

And Firebird.

That'll tide me over until 2025 when I'll ask for more classic Avengers 😀  

 

LOL,  I'm glad you added the last part since I'd still be asking for Starfox (come on!), Dr. Druid, Gilgamesh, Two Gun Kid ...

The Classic/pre-Disassembled Avengers lineup is the group of characters I most want to complete in ML. Beamish and others have listed them out before but since it's on topic...

Swordsman
Mantis
Beast*
Moondragon*
Two-Gun Kid
Falcon*
Starfox
Dr Druid
Firebird
Moon Knight*
Human Torch (Jim Hammond)
Living Lightning
Demolition Man
Rage*
Gilgamesh
Stingray
Crystal
Firestar*
Triathlon
Silverclaw
Jack of Hearts
Lionheart

Honorary members

Rick Jones
Guardians of the Galaxy 3000 - Martinex, Charlie-27, Starhawk, Aleta, Nikki
Whizzer
Moira Brandon
Marrina
Yellowjacket (Rita DeMara)
Magdalene & the other Swordsman
Deathcry
Masque
Teen Tony
Flux

* next to anyone who has a figure but the costume isn't right for their iconic (to me) Avengers look.

I don't really need a figure of Hawkeye's aunt Moira, but hey she's on the list!

Which Rage costume would you rather have for an Avengers shelf?

@chooch555 Maybe they want to have the word rage written on the back of the jacket, like I believe he had, back in the 90s.

My primary Avengers lineup would be this Stern Era lineup with associated characters (Hulk, Widow, Scott, etc).

joined by their West Coast equivalents.

with a less specific "70s" team on my general Marvel Universe display.

Looking at hmmberto's list above always makes me forget how many characters we have yet to go for a "complete" pre-Disassembled line-up.

I can dig that.

The fact that MCU Mantis has been around since 2017 and has appeared in several films and we still don't have a comic counterpart in figure form is irritating.

I went to pull the image of this page which I think of as the most iconic moment of Rage's brief stint with the Avengers and realized I had the wrong costume in my mind. This is the one we got! I would have loved to see "Rage" emblazoned across the back, but not badly enough to request a redo. So I'll strike Rage from that list.

This is what I was thinking he wore with the Avengers, but was mistaken. I would, however, like to see this costume made for the New Warriors shelf.

So, I was kinda right, about the word written on the back being wanted. 😉 😛 😆

If Rage is redone then Hasbro should use the new X-men 97 Bishop body. That body should have been used for Luke Cage to be better scaled to his 6ft6 height. The same as Hasbro is doing for a redo for Tombstone.

Latter costume Rage and Thrasher with original costume Silhouette would go greatbin a box set with original Marvel Boy and Namorita.
