As someone who recently purchased an Ollies Kill Monger to make an Egyptian figure,  Akhenaten is welcome on cool aesthetics alone. Dr. Bong is good old fashioned comic book ridiculousness at its most nostalgic and satisfying. Never read a single comic with either of these jabronis and would buy both eve on a non payday week.

I want Living Pharaoh and Rama Tut before Akhenaten.  

Doctor Bong is so ridiculous that I'd have to pick him up.

Akhenaten is not a character I am familiar with, but the look is pretty cool.  I think I would prefer him as a figure with the space field look rather than the all black, but either would be cool.

Dr. Bong.  Of course he needs a figure just because of the insanity of his look. 

So to clarify I would be in for both of these choices.

I definitely want Hepzibah! Let's keep the Starjammers going! She's definitely my top want from that group right now.

Yes to all, especially classic Hepzibah, Slasher, and Slither.

OK... I don't know anything about the Fangs as a gang or group or whatever.   I do love that slither design and would love that.

 

That Slasher costume has to be the most ridiculous thing ever... imagine trying to put that on if you didn't have Luke Cage style impenetrable skin.   Just one of the least practical outfits imaginable... it makes Porcupine look reasonable.     The other two seem fairly generic and none of them particularly seem like anything I need on my shelf.

 

Hepzibah on the other hand is an absolute must.    I need her in my collection but I absolutely WILL NOT stand for the more recent felinization of her look or character.     Hepzibah is an alien skunk lady.   She has always been an alien skunk lady.   

Her alien race is the Mephitsoids....   skunks here on earth belong to the family Mephitidae  with the most common skunk in north america - the striped skunk - having it's genus and species be Mephitis mephitis

 

She is unequivocally a skunk lady and so needs to look like a skunk lady like she does in the earlier Cockrum appearances.

 

I will not stand for the felinization of this fine creature.   She is not a cat lady and shame on any and every comic artist who has elected to depict her as such.

 

This is the look 

 

I could even live with this

 

but those last couple of images Beamish posted are just a hard pass.

Hepzibah would be a big yes, while the only member of the Fangs I have any interest in is Slither (due to his Serpent Society connection).

Pass on the Fangs.

Classic Hepzibah would be a purchase.  The more modern looks are a pass.

I'll take a Hepzibah. I have no strong feelings on a look for her.

Classic Hepzibah & Dr. Bong are both affirmatives for me.

Just one these looks, no to everything else.

I’d take either of the looks Meanstreak just posted, or the more recent one with the red top. Hepzibah is a must.

No Dr Bong unless we get a new Howard with him.

I’m good with my MS Chitauri, but I’d probably buy ML versions because they’ll have more articulation.
