Carrion is easily in my top 10 Spider-related figures - he has to be made soon! Put him in a wave with Vermin, please and thanks.

Omega has had a lot more appearances than I realized - I remember the Collective story from New Avengers (where Bendis tried to unceremoniously kill off Alpha Flight, the jerk) and I knew he showed up with Osborn's Dark Avengers - but he's been used more in between than I knew. I like his unique look in the first three pics, and would definitely take a figure of it.

Was Weapon Omega Wild Child in a suit?  Either way, the suits are all pretty sweet looking so I'd pick him up.  Carrion seems like an omission at this point.

So, I'm a yes to Omega -  preferably in the earlier costume that actually has the Omega on it and not the one that just looks like the Guardian/Vindicator figure we already have.     But for sure, yes.    Add him to the pile of wants.

 

Carrion is a definite want as well.   He's one of those Spidey adversaries I'm sort of shocked we don't have already,  but I think it comes down to the body type.   He's not a character you can just release on the Sunfire body and have it work.    And we know how loathe Hasbro is to tool up new parts without multiple reuse options available.

Omega, sure.  Why not?

id prefer Omega the Unknown though.

Weapon Omega is a different character.  He’s the transition identity between Wild Child and Wildheart.  Still, I’d take Kyle in that costume.  The red and white Alpha Flight team uniforms were pretty sharp.

 

Carrion is a criminal oversight at this point.  He needs to get made.

I just want to second this.  Could be a fun box set.

Catching up here:

Definitely want Mantis, and honestly I'd take any of her classic looks. I'd prefer her more human skin, but wouldn't get upset if she had a green tone.

Carrion is a definite yes. Love the classic Spidey villains!

Pass on Omega, MCU Destroyer, and Punisher 2099.

Not the Omega I was expecting to see, so that would be a pass. Had it been Omega the Unknown, I'd be an enthusiastic YES.

I'd likely get Carrion for my son's Spidey villains shelf.

I would get both, especially the classic look for Malcolm. 😀 And, to be honest, when I read Omega, I was thinking of Omega the Unknown. lol

Yes to Carrion!

I'm not clamoring for that Omega but I'd pick him up in the suit from the first image.

I know this set will never happen due to a number of reasons.  Especially considering the last Alpha Flight box set didn't sell very well.  However I would absolutely love this team, and costumes to be made.  

Anyway.  I would be down for mutant Omega because his costume is pretty great and very toyetic.   His last appearance was during the Krakoa era tyring to live a normal life away from mutants.  Of course that didn't quite work out too well for him.

Weapon Omega would also be a great choice as a figure.  Again very toyetic.

Like others I thought of Omega the Unknown when I saw the title.  Would be good with a figure of him as well.  And while we're at it why not an Omega (Android version) that was created by Maximus (Inhumans) to help the Alpha Primitives rise up?   He would have to be a bigger figure though because he was large in the comics.   His costume was pretty good...........his powers not so much.   Or rather the source of his powers (Inhuman guilt about the Alpha Primitives.....really?)

Carrion is not a big want for me, but another Spiderman villain is always appreciated.

Don't feel the need for Weapon Omega

Yes to both the clone and the red outfit version of McBride for Carrion

@panthercult 

I get what your saying, but it’s not like there isn’t reuse potential in a thin, toned buck like that:

Carrion

Manslaughter

Nightmare (sometimes drawn that way)

Needle

Maelstrom (sometimes drawn that way)

Nocturne (vampiric)

Bloodscream

Necron

Tabula Rasa

 

..for example.  Note that none of these characters have been produced yet.  Hasbro could get some mileage out a buck like that.

See, that's fair.   I was trying to think of characters that would work and was struggling -  though Nightmare is one I should have thought of.     And Bloodscream would be fun.     Sold.   Let's go Hasbro,  tool up an ultra skinny buck and get to work.

Yes to Omega! The suits from Dark Reign are cool. I liked the concept of him as the Collective when he fought the New Avengers as well. 

Yes to Carrion.
