Any and all of the Twelve would be sure buys.  I want them, yesterday. I enjoyed the series.   Get on it Hasbro!

 

Tha-Korr, is a pass.

I love the Runaways book, so I'm a big huge yes to seeing more - nay ALL of them in plastic on my shelf.    I have a Jurassic Park Velociraptor hanging with nobody but Nico to keep her company all this time.   So bring on the rest of that team.    I love that book so much I don't even mind that most of the characters don't even have traditional superhero costumes.     I'd still love to assemble the squad.

 

As for Icemaster -  absolutely.    How do you pass on a villain who got his start in a Hostess ad?   You don’t.    Seems like he’d be pretty easy to build using an existing Iceman body with some add on spikes and a new head.   I’m in.

 

Makkari -  Yes.   Comic looks for the Eternals are fun.   I’d take many of them,  certainly all of the characters that made it into the movie.   Makkari is on that list and his bright red costume would pop on the shelf.

 

And then things go a little off the rails.

 

Tha-Korr is an Atlantean -  but there is such a long list of Atlantean characters I want to see made as figures first I can’t even say yes.    Like he is FAR down the list of Atlantean characters I want on my shelf.   So far down there’s no chance we’d get to him

 

As for the Twelve -   I get the nostalgia for those Golden Age books.   It was a simpler time when many of the heroes had stupid names and silly concepts.    Phantom Reporter?   Blue Blade?   Laughing Mask?   Mr. E…    There’s a world where if they put together the right box set of these I’d buy it, maybe -   Black Widow, Fiery Mask, Electro,  Rockman, and  Captain Wonder … maybe….maybe

Tha-Korr would be a pass.   I like his modern look, but as Panthcult said there are others ahead of him in line for release (at least for me).

The Twelve is a fun idea, but most of them would not be terrible good figures.   I would say yes, but that is knowing the chance of getting even one of them is slim to none.

These would all be passes for me today.  While some of the looks are interesting, I just want so many other characters before any of these.

@panthercult 

I was curious to see if anyone else remembered.  Before Icemaster was brought in, officially, Printout Man was mentioned in canon, even though he didn’t actually appear, in the pages of Fantastic Four.  Making Printout Man the first Hostess character to be officially part of the mainstream Marvel Universe.

 

Yes, freakin’ Printout Man.

Apparently Printout Man is also mentioned in New Avengers: Most Wanted Files as being a model prisoner

 

and then makes an actual appearance in the pages of the Fin Fang Four Returns comic book from 2009,  so...

Tha-Korr isn't a big want but I'd get him, maybe in the blue-skinned/yellow crown look.

 

Definitely in for the Twelve. Loved that series (even though it took like three years to get 12 issues out). The characters are Golden Age and modern at the same time thanks to that series, and it would be great to get all of them.

Passes all around. I liked the Twelve and they have good looks, but I don't like them enough to dish out ~$300 to complete the group.

I'm just going to save some time and say:   YES

 

I will take figures of all 4 of those characters who have shared a single basic code name.    Please and thank you.
