A Danger Room set would be cool to have if I had the space.  As it is, I'm going to have to stick to larger figures for the limited space I do have.  I hope they do make one for all of you X-men fans out there.

I'm torn on the idea of a Danger Room playset. 

On the one hand I would probably be down for almost any version they would come up with.  On the other hand I don't know that I would be willing to pay the price for a playset like that in ML. 

Look how much they are asking for the Cantina Haslab and that is in 1:18 scale.  I fear that to get a really good set it would cost too much. 

Still if I had to be more specific, probably a Byrne era Danger Room with hoops, lasers, flame throwers, etc.   Kind of basic I know, but I would probably use it more for display with those kind of accessories.

I'd be interested ina Danger Room in any form, a build a dio or a Haslab, but I'm int he unique position that I run a makerspace now and for me fabricating one, while time intensive, would probably be cheaper and would probably have a lot more cool functionality. Course, when will I ever get the time for that kind of project? So maybe I should just hope one will be done for me.

I think if it were packaged with figures I'd prefer dio pieces over walls (so like laser turrets or crushers or whatever). If it were a proper Haslab I think I'd want at least some lighting features built in and some modularity. Sort of like the Nova Revol dios in feel, but hopefully with better fundamental design.

In theory I'd like it but I'm not really sure where or how I'd display it

Not really all that familiar with either character today.  Might pick up Unicorn in a baf wave on sale.

Pass on Adversary, but SO IN for issue #154/handbook-style Unicorn. VERY much wanted.

I'd be interested in an X-Men 97 figure of the Adversary, because I really loved that episode.

Yes to Unicorn(s), although my preference is for  Yegor Balinov:

I could pass on the Adversary.

Yes to Unicorn! Much needed Iron Man villain!

Love that you're branching out from just characters Beamish! I came across this a few months ago on Instagram:

https://fext-hobby.myshopify.com/collections/fext-hobby-x-fans-hobby/products/sci-fi-08-training-room-diorama

It's one of those things that would be amazing to have with a looot more space - but I do like how functional it could be as an actual display, espcially linking a few together. I've not seen any in-hand pics from anyone, so no idea how the actual product turned out.

As for the matter at hand for today - Unicorn is an easy yes! Love that look.

The Adversary doesn't immediately spring to mind as a must-have x-villain, but there is a lot of potential for a figure. I'd definitely pick him if a figure was made in any of the forms shown.

That’s extremely cool! And honestly, not a bad price for the size of the set you’re getting. But yeah, display room is definitely a factor there.

I don’t know Adversary, but a figure of his zombie look would be cool.

Unicorn (as he looks on cover of IM 154) is one of many sorely missing classic Iron Man villains. Bring him on.

Given the current corporate climate at Hasbro I don't think the comic versions of The Adversary would get greenlit for fear of offending indigenous groups.   However this could be a compromise release.   Personally I would love some of those comic looks.

Unicorn is a big ol' HELL YEAH!!!!  Definitely need this Iron Man villain.  His more modern (classic?) look.   Then second would be his original look.
