I have been trying to work out an easy hair swap with the existing Mr Hyde. I had previously posted one that uses the hair from a What If Babayaga Wanda Maximoff. I didn't love it and it needed a lot of modification to barely fit. Latest trial was hair from an extra Ulik head. That seemed to work better, but not perfect. I could live with the BAF as is, if it came with a more classic head. They should just pack that in with another figure at this point. I can live without the duster/cape thing Hyde usually wears if we got a head without the bowler hat.

With the way Hasbro like to reuse, they should release a two pack of classic Hyde and Cobra.  They could reuse much of King Cobra, with a new short cowl.  
Or even, if they’re feeling magnanimous, give us a five pack or DD, Hyde, Cobra, Jester, and Gladiator.

Absolutely yes to classic Hyde. Preference is a John Buscema Under Siege look.

I'd love the bathtub!

Pass on Tattoo. 

Classic Mr. Hyde is a MAJOR want of mine.

While the size creep have actually made the existing Wrecking Crew fit in better, and they have pretty great headsculpts, I'd happily take an updated, pinless, set.

Yes to the Fantasticar.    I’d kind of just like the old modular bath tub version -  that would be just fine with me and I think they could to that under this new ~$100 adjacent megafig category.      Somethng more similar to the movie model would be fine to… but that classic flying tub is just so Iconic.

 

 

Tattoo/Longstrike -  yes -  mutant, add to the roster.  Sure, fine.    I kind of prefer the later Longstrike aesthetic though.    I would buy the figure.

 

Classic Mr. Hyde.    I’m not huge into re-do’s as people know.  But I wouldn’t balk overmuch at a second bite at the Mr. Hyde apple.   I like the one we’ve got, but I also recognize that it doesn’t scratch that silverage Hyde itch and so yes, I’d buy a second bit at that apple.

 

New Wrecking Crew…

 

Sigh, I guess.    Silly, skinny kids trying to do what the original big boys did.    I’d buy them if they got made, but I’m not clamoring for them or anything.

 

Aso for the original crew…  I’m honestly fine with the foursome I have.   I know they are a bit oversized,  I know they have the outdated ball hips.    If they got updated remakes I would definitely buy them -  but I’m not in a hurry to get new ones.    It’ll be a $120 investment (or more) to replace the team and I’d rather spend that money on new characters, frankly.   But -  I understand why people want new versions, and so when they get made, I’ll be picking them up.

Although I'm sure that I'd likely buy re-dos of the originals, I don't feel like I need them therefore I'd actually prefer the "new" versions.

Pass on the New Wrecking Crew, but I'd be in for a re-do of the original foursome. A little smaller, better articulation, and hopefully this time Bulldozer can get a classic alternate head and Piledriver won't be wearing gloves.

Man, I missed Vostok/Sputnik AND Screaming Mimi in one day? Yes to both, please!

You know, it never occurred to me that the Wrecking Crew could expand - but I absolutely love the idea that they would! I'm not totally opposed to the ones pictured, but this is one case where I don't really need them to mix up the formula - just add 2 or 3 more bruisers with their gimmicks to the group and call it a day.

I'm also pretty happy with the Crew we have, but I know they can be better. I always thought the sculpt on Wrecker was lacking, and the MU version was way better - if they remake them I want some serious love put into them.

Not clamoring for the “new crew”.

Give me updates on the classic Wrecking Crew.  Alt heads for Bulldozer.  No gloves on Piledriver.  Articulated chain for Thunderball.  More classic look for Wrecker.  
Hey Marvel if you wanted to add to the Wrecking Crew you could’ve just added Jackhammer or Powderkeg to the group, and kept the the theme going.

Ditto.

I’m in for a redo of the classic original Crew, handbook looks of course. 

Zero desire for whoever those new nobodies are.
