Double yes today as long as Yellowjacket and Deathbird are in their classic looks.
yes to both. Please don't over 90s the Deathbird and leave us wanting another immediately.
Big yes for both! For Deathbird, I'd love both OG and 90's
+1 for Deathbird's original design and a classic Yellowjacket update
The Shi-ar are among my least favorite X-Men things, but Deathbird is the exception. Great design.
Huh. For some reason this thread isn't taking me to the most recent replies when I open it. Interesting.
EDIT: Of course, NOW it did. *grumble*
This likely won't be a popular take, but the only Yellowjacket that I personally want is Rita DeMara. I never display more than one version of any character and my Hank will be the HasLab Giant Man once he arrives (replacing the ToyBiz BAF, which is the Hank I have in my Avengers display now).
Big yes to Deathbird, although she's not as high on my want list as she seems to be for some others.

I’d very much like Rita as well. As long as she’s been Yellowjacket, now, it feels like the identity is hers. Hank did use it first (in Marvel), so Ideally I want both.

Agree with you both. When I first answered, I should have included Rita in my "YES!" as well. I very much want a figure of her. I currently use the HeroClix in my display, but welcome something better.
Regarding today's selection, Normie is a big ol' pass, but D'Ken is an enthusiastic YES (see my above previous statement about loving the Shi'Ar).
So... we have a Marvel Legends Red Goblin already, though the one with the white bodied suit wouldn't be bad if they wanted to do a new one. I don't think I need any of the other versions of that character ... though I could also see them caving to to do a black suited repaint of the six arm spidey body and calling it that 3rd image.
D'Ken is down the list of Shi'ar characters I want for my shelf. Deathbird is way, way out in front on that list. Heck Cerise and Deathcry are ahead of him on that list, as Erik the Red and a large number of Imperial Guard members. Maybe if they did an Imperial Guard 12 pack - like Mattel did the old LoSH 12 pack back in the day - and had D'Ken as one of the members that would be fine.... but I'm good if they dont get to him
Both would be interesting, especially D'Ken. 😀 oh, and younger Normie.
Double pass for me today.
How do we not have an updated Yellowjacket yet? And how in HELL have they not done Deathbird. Honestly, I'd take her in either her classic or Jim Lee looks.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a story during the Busiek era with Yellowjacket being made into a separate entity extracted from Hank? I have a vague recollection of that...but it might be a justification to include both versions of Hank in a display.
Rita definitely needs her own figure as well.
