Yes to Gargoyle and Jack of Hearts!
Celestials would be cool. Especially Arishem.
Yes to Nomad in the gold armor and Blazing Skull.
Yes to Lockjaw!
I've been avoiding commenting on this thread for a while, as I am trying to reduce my Legends to stick with more of the A and B list - so not a lot new I truly need at this point and didn't want to spam with no thanks for so many characters.
But gotta support Lockjaw.
As someone in the same boat, this is often a strange thread to visit.
If nothing else, it's a test of my willpower. For instance, I've wanted a Phyla-Vell for years. What would I do if they made her? Get her even if she doesn't make sense in my current collection? One for the work desk, perhaps.
@derrabbi I completely forgot about the Alpha Primitives. Another example of writers "back-and-forthing" their characterization/treatment to fit their story ultimately diluting the original negativity of the Inhumans.
A huge HELL YES to Defender's era Gargoyle!!! I love PantherCult's idea of a two pack with Devil Slayer! That would be an instant preorder from me. I'll never feel my Legends collection is "complete" without these two (and Hellstrom & Classic Valkyrie). Just love that era of Defenders!
Jack Of Hearts in his classic costume is a huge want, and way overdue. I had that issue of Marvel Team Up pictured (#134) as a kid, and I read it over and over. No interest in that Lim version, or any of the modern takes on him. I want the version with the crazy design work on it, arrow pointing to crotch and all!
I'm not a big Inhumans fan...a corner of the Marvel Universe that has never really done much for me, but Crystal and Lockjaw are MUSTS. Crystal has so many ties to every corner of the MU, from the FF, Avengers, X-Men, etc., that it's rather strange she's never had a Legend figure.
A little weekend catch up…
Celestials are a non-starter for me really. I could see if I had like a 600 square foot basement space to display my collection maybe doctoring up a couple of mannequins to be ML Celestials that might be fun - but to have them as action figures in my collection won’t work. They can’t be smaller than Galactus or certainly than a man made Sentinel robot, so anything they could make would be undisplayable for my purposes. So as cool as I think a lot of the Celestials can be - there isn’t a workable solution for my collection from a mass produced product standpoint.
792 - Nomad (Ian Rogers)
No idea who this is but do not need or want. If you want the first two images you could just do a captain America with some plumers tape and paint and an old man hawkeye head (or something). The armored costume is kind of neat looking I guess. Not something I’m familiar with, but if he made it into figure form I’d probably pick it up to pair with the Sam as Cap.
Archive 125 - Blazing Skull
Yes please and thank you. Definitely would love to have for my Invaders display.
793 - Nameless One
I mean… on the one hand, who doesn’t like crazy cooky monster toys? On the other hand this is not a character I feel is missing from my display and would not miss it if it was never mentioned again, let alone never got a figure. Still if for some crazy off the wall reason Hasbro decided to put this to plastic, yep, I’d buy it and maybe more than one. Cool monsters fit in lots of displays.
Archive 126 Lockjaw
Enough already Hasbro. Just give us Lockjaw. It’s ridiculous he hasn’t been made by now. He’s much needed and glaring omission - although half the Inhumans royal family is still missing too. I know it’s all new tooling, but pair him with Crystal who could be a total repaint to defray costs. I don’t care how you do it…. But freaking do it. Put it in a cool box set with Crystal, Black Bolt on a new body, Medusa repaint, and Triton. Whatever hoops I gotta jump through, I’ll do it, but get Lockjaw into my collection.
Today's a Big Ol' Pack o' YES from me!
I love Undersea characters, and Namor definitely needs more representation on our shelves. I think he's the only character doing worse than Thor as far as getting villains and supporting characters made.
Lightmaster is a classic baddie, and the outfit featured in the first three pics is my choice by far. Heck, even do him in translucent plastics so light shines through him.
Yes, to all!
I want all of them, especially classic Lightmaster.
Today is a big ol' bundle of YES.
There are definitely a handful of Atlanteans I need in my hands first - Attuma, proper Namorita, Orca - but I would gladly take any or all of Llyron and Fathom Five - except maybe Man o War - gelatinous blob characters would be tricky to translate well. They are fun designs and more Atlanteans would certainly be welcome.
And Lightmaster is another one I'd love to have - preferably as he looks in those first three images. Simple design with no sculpted details necessary and not even too complicated a paint job. He'd be great to add to the Spidey villain shelf and another super easy repaint for Hasbro to kick out - of course we don't have Spot yet either, so they aren't always looking for easy.
Llyron, son of Namor (well one of them, I prefer the more recent Enchantress/Namor son). While the look is ok I'm not dying for him as a figure. WHERE IS COMIC ATTUMA? It's not A TTUMA!!! (Thank you Arnold)
Fathom Five. I'll admit that some of the looks are kind of cool, but none of them speak to me so I would pass.
Lightmaster. Sure why not. His classic look first, and I could even go for his modern Iron Man look in that last picture.
I’m just going to simply say:
YES!!!!!!
While I hope you guys that want them get them, these just aren't the Spidey or Namor characters that I want Hasbro to make. As others have said, I want Spot, Attuma, and Orca way before any of these characters.
Llyron and the Fathom Five are pretty low on the want list but I wouldn't say no. Classic Lightmaster though is a BIG yes, bring him on!
