Yes to Humbug. Walkman bandolier required. Would prefer Slyde from that era, would be way easier parts reuse.
I'm a solid 'Nah, don't need it' on Humbug of whatever stripe
Silhouette is an absolute must for me though. We've been making decent progress on putting together a New Warriors line up - even if we do have the typical Legends issue of wild inconsistency with costume eras - and Silhouette is a must have for that. I have my fingers crossed that we might get a box set with an early NW Marvel Boy (bonus if we get two heads, one full cowl and one with hair out), a pink skinned green suited Namorita and Silhouette. It they want to 5 pack it up they could toss in Turbo and Bengal for an easy tooling option
But the team won't be complete without Silhouette
I’m not familiar with Humbug but I need that original look on my shelf!

I love all of this. No notes!
And I'd get Heroes for Hire Humbug because I enjoyed that book.
Pass on Humbug, but a definite YES to original costume Silhouette. Always happy to add to what I consider Classic Warriors.
Humbug looks like he got the "update the goofy character" treatment. Which I find in a lot of cases takes away from what made the character interesting in the first place. I don't really remember Humbug and don't see a need for him in my collection. Now if it was Forbush Man........HELL YEAH!! That is a goofy character I can get behind.
Silhouette. She was never a big want of mine and I can live without her, but she is an important part of the New Warriors. I could see her getting included in a boxset.
Gladiator is a must. We need to have him yesterday.
Frenchie is welcome, but I don’t see him selling well in a single release, but maybe in a two-pack.
Hard pass on Frenchie. I didn't even like the character when I was actively reading Moon Knight. Zero interest in a figure of him.
The Melvin Potter Gladiator on the other hand is a must have (comic version only, don't care about MCU). It's a great vibrant costume, it's fun and there's just not enough Daredevil supporting cast on my shelves. So yes please for this Gladiator.
Yes to comic book versions of both.
Both are passes from me today. Classic costume Gladiator would be very tempting though if on sale or as part of a desired BaF wave.
I'm only familiar with Frenchie from The Boys. I'd take him.
Melvin Potter. Hopefully we get him this year for the Daredevil 60th Anniversary. So silly we've waited this long.
I’m not normally into civilian canon figs; they usually get a head swap and become organized crime thugs if I buy them at all. That said there are a handful that I do want (Rick Jones, Stevie Hunter, Wyatt Wingfoot, Edwin Jarvis etc) and Frenchie is definitely one that places me in the ‘yes’ category for making/buying. That initial Moonknight run (Sienkiewicz) was one of the first comic titles I collected along with Spider Man, Hulk, Rom, Powerman & Iron Fist, and Master of Kung Fu as I transitioned into a regular reader/collector as a child. So, yes, Frenchie, please…1st illustration.
As for an OG FA Melvin? Pfft… hell yeah! I didn’t collect Daredevil, but my friend did making me a fan - once removed. I read the comics on loan from my buddy and resonated with the design for Gladiator. As with other characters like Razorfist and Zaran, Gladiator captivated my sense of fear for the “unpowered” protagonist. (Unpowered for the most part – Matt does have superhuman abilities, obviously) I’m surprised we haven’t seen a Gladiator fig in any toyline thus far…unless I missed something.
Big yes for Gladiator!
First picture comic Gladiator please.
No to Frenchie.
