Just For Fun - a Trading Card Wave!

I mean... a huge yes to all of that.    I want every single one of those... well to be perfectly honest I could live if it wasn't Slapstick and instead was someone like Jack of Hearts or Stingray or Silhouette

Love the trading card inspiration for so many figures - it hits the exact time I was collecting these cards as a kid, and so many characters that I learned about through cards before the comics.

I mentioned this in another thread, but I think it would be neat to present the Fwoosh Top 10 (or 20, or whatever number makes sense) to the ML team in trading card form - basically just collect cards of the top poll winners as a neat way to show them our collective top wants. I'm not attending, but if anyone is headed to SDCC and would want to make the hand-off I'd be happy to collect the cards and send them your way! I'll find a nice way to present them too, so it's not just a handful of loose cards to awkwardly hand over.

Does the Over Power game count as trading cards? If so, then they had Feral's sister, Thornn, on them. 😀

Well, since this is just for fun, this’ll come as no surprise:

Prime:

Hardcase

Mantra

Solitaire

Lord Pumpkin

Tyrannosaur

BAF: Sludge

Deluxe: NM-E

Box Set: The Solution

I'm your huckleberry. 

We can't send private messages on this board anymore, but I'll get you my email address somehow, no worries.  I'd love to get those cards to the boys.

Amazing!

I'll pull my cards out tomorrow (we moved recently, but I know which box they're buried in) and try to get cards of at least the Fwoosh Top 15-20. If I'm missing anyone in the list I'll see about picking them up on eBay, or maybe see if someone else here wants to contribute. I've got mostly complete collections of at least 5-6 of the various 90s sets, so I should be pretty well covered.

You rock! Thanks for being game.

You rock! Thanks for being game.

It'll be my genuine pleasure, buddy. Don't worry, we're gonna get it done.

Because NO ONE demanded it, these are my picks:

01. Wonder Man in his black-and-red Avengers West Coast suit with an alternate smiling head

02. Storm in her black and yellow lightning bolt suit with alternate head with long hair

03. Adam Warlock in his Infinity Gauntlet/Infinity War era suit with alternate Infinity Gauntlet hand

04. Namorita in her green swimsuit/Mark Bagley art based

05. Annihilus

06. Leader in his orange and black suit with the "Jiffy Pop" brain

07. Count Dracula in his classic "Tomb of Dracula" wardrobe

Build-A-Figure N'Astirh

Honorable mentions:

Invisible Woman in her opera gloves Fantastic Four uniform

Jubilee in her Generation X uniform

Calypso.  Any suit will do.

Deluxe or Build-A-Figure Rhino in his Sinister Syndicate era armored form

I'd also add a Deluxe Doctor Octopus in his Armani suit or classic green-and-orange suit with the bendable wire tentacles.

Finally, I'm also hoping for Deluxe, non-exclusive, sold separately figures of classic green savage Hulk and of Professor Hulk in brown Pantheon-era jumpsuit.

What do you guys think?  Do you like any of my choices?

Nebula
Jamie Braddock
Saracen
Firestar (Maximum Carnage costume)
Talon
Hawkeye (1991 series 2 cards costume)
Deathwatch

BAF Epoch

Multi-pack Serpent Society (Bushmaster, Rattler, Fer-De-Lance, Coach Whip, Black Racer, and Anaconda) (They're the ones shown on the card, that haven't been made, yet.)

This is perfect, thanks Beamish! I may select from that 9-way tie to round it out to 20, or throw in Foom as the top Haslab vote getter. Appreciate you pulling the list together (not to mention running the top 10 in the first place!).
