I'd definitely be in for all of Robbie Robertson, Betty Brant, Glory Grant, Ben Urich and Irene Merryweather! I'd buy that boxset instantly.
Robbie is in my Top 5 most wanted, Betty is in my Top 15 and Ben is in my Top 30. Robbie Robertson and Edwin Jarvis are the only 2 in my Top 10 that aren't X-Men related. Right now I have the 6" Samuel Jackson Jurassic Park figure as a stand in for Robbie with a Blue Marvel head.
I'd most likely pass on Chainsaw.
Classic Anaconda would be an instant purchase!
Anaconda's later designs are all a pass.
Anaconda is my most wanted Serpent Society member.
Chainsaw is one of those characters I am ambivalent about. The look is ok, but I don't have a lot of experience with the character and as such I am good either way.
Anaconda is an easy yes. More Serpent Society members please. Preference would be 80s/early 90s look. (MU Handbook/Cap issues)
Yes to Anaconda, pass on Leatherface Chainsaw and the Daily Bugle normies.
A Servo-Guard or two would be cool.
It’s a hard pass for me on all of the Daily Bugle folks - I just don’t need a bunch of people in street clothes milling around and I’m not particularly interested in creating a Daily Bugle staff meeting display. I will admit though that if the released a Robbie Robertson figure I would buy him because he reminds me a little, visually, of my Uncle Al.
Chainsaw is umm… - well… the Moon Knight rogues gallery is sorely underserved in the figure department, but Chainsaw is not one I’m aching for on my shelf - obviously feels a little horror movie derivative with the mask and weapon of choice and just not that interesting.
Anaconda on the other hand is squarely in my top 20 most wanted characters in Legends. I want a figure of her SO badly - but I fear it is a long shot. With her thick torso and beefy thighs, not to mention her unique arms and head sculpt - she’s almost entirely a one off sculpt with very little re-use potential and so would end up costing like $70 – like Blob – except that she’s nowhere near as popular as Blob and so it seems very unlikely Hasbro will invest in the tooling required to do this character justice. But I want her so bad. But I will track down and murder someone if they try to give us whatever the hell garbage that is in the last image. What on earth is that and why are they trying to pass It off as Anaconda? Look kids – anorexia is your friend – GTFOH, that is so disrespectfully gross. Burn it with fire.
Merlyn as drawn by Alan Davis I would pick up for background in an Excalibur display - though Roma would be way more necessary.
Doom’s Servo Robots would be amazing and I would buy at least 5 of them. I love the look – and they are perfect army builders for a guy like Doom, who let’s be honest, would have trouble recruiting and keeping actual human troops.

Isn't the whole deal that the people of Latveria love him though? I think he'd have lots of folks willing, but part of the reason they do love him is that he has robots do the fighting?

But that's what I'm saying - they love him because they don't know him. If actual people had to actual serve Doom up close they'd see what a narcistic asshole he is and sour on him pretty quickly - and word would spread. You are exactly right - Latverians love him because he protects Latveria at all costs and because they only see the "him" he wants them to see.
I'd be down for classic purple garbed Merlin, and a few purple/silver Servo-Guards. Basically, if it's purple, I'll buy it.
4th pic Merlin, and absolutely to the servo guards. <3
I would likely pass on Merlyn. He’s just not a character that I really desire.
The Servo-Guards on the other hand, are certainly welcome. We never got the proposed ones from the original villain wave, or since then. While just about every other army builder has since been released, we still don’t have the Servo-Guards. Get on it Hasbro.
Merlyn would be a yes in the old trope look with the pointy hat and long robe and beard. Not particularly original I know, but hey it is what it is. Frankly though I am not a big fan of the character in Marvel, especially tied to the X-Men universe.
Servo-Guards would be great. Just big enough to be larger than a standard ML figure, but not so big as to be a deluxe figure.
