Oh yeah, it would be like night and day. They could really nail this look now.
ease, I beg you, do not give Hasbro excuses to remake figures they've already made instead of making more new characters. Hasbro has made numerous Mystique figures but no Destiny. We're really asking for another bite at that apple?
It's more of a thought experiment than advocation, but I should have been clearer. I'll edit the initial post to reflect this.
While there's a lot of figures that need updating and some that I really want updated, there’s still a bunch of other figures that I would rather have first time figures of or some to finish off teams, first.
Same, same. I'd definitely prefer new characters as well. Of course we know Hasbro will redo a hundred figures before some of us get the one C or D list character we've been waiting 20 years for, so I hope they at least update ones worth updating.
Abomination (classic) on bigger body sculpt
Absorbing Man (purple pants) standard size body sculpt
Wendigo (classic head sculpt)
Leader (face-off 2-pack)
Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch)
Blackheart
Punisher (epic heroes wave)
Mole Man...Madame Masque
Good call. Didn't think of these two.
Hydra Soldier, classic
Yes! Would definitely like to see this as well. Seeing Bob next to the existing Hydra builders made me realize we need new Hydra ABs.
What was wrong with the BP wave version?
Nothing inherently wrong, it's more of a style consistency with me. I wouldn't mind an updated colorway and pinless body/modern sculpt. Definitely love the scaled trunks though.
Yellowjacket
All the Monsters (plus Living Mummy, please)
Cable (Blue & Yellow)
Medusa (classic Inhumans, and rest of them while we're at it)
Doc Samson
Dum Dum Dugan
Nighthawk (you can do better)
Grim Reaper (wrong buck)
Good calls- I agree wholeheartedly!
Every lady with single-jointed elbows
And some gentlemen:
Angel
Iron Fist (both classic and Immortal)
Absolutely yes.
Sub-Mariner (classic green trunks)
What was wrong with the BP wave version?
Not putting words in anyone else's mind, but I would like an updated version of him on the Vulcan buck for the butterfly joints and because I hated the thick ankles on that BP one.
I wouldn't mind a more Bill Everett alien looking one for an Invaders shelf.
Silver Centurion Iron Man.
Hard for me to think of any that haven't already been mentioned. Each suggestion helps me realize that there are plenty that need upgrades. Like, "oh yeah, that one too" or "oh man, I haven't thought about that one in a while". And even going back into Toy Biz days (though that list should be pretty short by now). There are certainly some I'd prioritize:
Dan Ketch, classic Iron Fist, classic Angel, Astonishing Wolverine, Astonishing Beast, Astonishing Kitty Pryde, Astonishing Colossus, Classic Hercules, Silver Age Bucky, Ares, Ronin (Barton), Constrictor, Wrecker, Piledriver, Thunderball, Bulldozer, Constrictor, Psylocke, red Elektra, Carol Danvers Ms Marvel/Captain Marvel... I'm sure there are many more, that's just off the top of my head.
I forgot about Silver Sable’s ugly ass. She could definitely use an update.
and Sebastian Shaw but the classic, buff, shirtless version this time.
I forgot about Silver Sable’s ugly ass. She could definitely use an update.
Oh yeah, I didn't think of her either because I used an extra Jocasta body to upgrade mine. Works great (unless you don't like the headsculpt).
Looking over my displays and in no particular order:
Constrictor
Whirlwind (with chainmail arms and legs)
Doc Samson
Ka-Zar
Shanna (even though it would be at the expense of her ample cleavage and underboob)
Falcon
Hellcat
Yellowjacket
Black Knight (ditch the pouches and give him a proper scabbard and v-cut boot cuffs trimmed in red)
Valkyrie (TRU one is short, scrawny and looks as if her head was caught in closing elevator doors)
She-Hulk (purple and white)
Medusa
Mole Man
Klaw (a little beefier, please)
Deathlok (Luther Manning Classic ... puh-leeeeeze!)
Jackyl
Scarlet Spider (the only one not on the retro/RYV body)
Silver Sable
Typhoid Mary
Iceman (something faceted)
Cyclops (Dark Phoenix one isn't bad but a lighter blue with no unnecessary shading)
Angel (blue or red halo suit)
Namorita (classic green, scaly swimsuit. I know - too soon?)
Chameleon (smoking jacket)
Beetle (bucket head with long sucker fingers)
Adam Warlock (Starlin classic look)
Dracula (Gene Colan classic appearance)
Iron Fist (classic yellow and green with tall, pointed collar)
Phoenix (see Dark Phoenix)
Loki
Odin (something chunky harkening back to Kirby/Buscema)
Iron Man— Neo-Classic Armor
Iron Man— Mark 1 (MCU)
Iron Patriot (comic)
Annihilus
Crimson Dynamo (classic armors)
Carol Danvers Warbird/Ms. Marvel
BOOOOO to this topic. Please, I beg you, do not give Hasbro excuses to remake figures they've already made instead of making more new characters. Hasbro has made numerous Mystique figures but no Destiny. We're really asking for another bite at that apple?
Yes, I am asking for this. Funny that you mention Mystique because she could really use a re-do.
