Honestly I have to say I would probably pick up 1940s Cap on the sheer novelty of it.   I don't think it would make for a good figure, but I think I would just have to pick one up still.

Grandmaster (MU Handbook) is an easy yes.   I mean c'mon.   Also we need more Elders of the Universe.

I'd buy both! I still have that Toy Biz Legendary Heroes version of Conan vs Wraarl among my Marvel display but would love an updated Hasbro Marvel Legends style figure of Conan.

I'd be interested in both.  But especially Conan.  Had the Mego growing up.  He's a great character.  Bring on Red Sonja as well.

Don't know Alkhema.  But she has an interesting look, so why not.

I'm good without Alkhema.

I know there are a bunch of great options already out there for Conan, but I wouldn't mind a ML version and would definitely pick him up.

Of course my What IF? love means I want two packs of Conan vs. Thor and Conan vs. Wolverine.  Even if it meant simple repacks of Thor and Wolverine (which is what would happen of course).

I'm in for both today.

Like others, I still display my ToyBiz Legendary Heroes Conan with my figures but I'd definitely prefer an updated version.

As for Alkhema, I'd prefer the v2.0 version from Busiek & Pérez's Avengers run.

I want a WWII Cap, but a comic version, not the live action serials version. Re-do the dark ages WWII Cap, with his triangle shield. And throw in a Bucky too.

Grandmaster is a glaring omission, More Elders, across the board, please.

Hell, yes to Conan. I'm hoping that Hasbro's foray into the licensing outskirts of Marvel comics, with Crystar and Rom, might end up getting us a Conan figure (and some Micronauts).

I'd buy an Alkhema, she'd make a great toy, but she's not a necessity for me.

Sure.  I’d get a Conan vs Alkhema two-pack. 😆 

Conan had such a strong Marvel presence for a long time, it would be cool to see him in the Legends line (Sonja too).  I waited too long long to buy the Legendary Heroes version, so another go at a Legends compatible Conan would be great.

Alkhema would make a nice figure.  She’s not high on my list, but I’d still buy her if she got made.

Yes to a John Buscema-esque Conan. Pass on Alkhema/War Toy

Yes to Grandmaster and Conan. 

Huge yes to Alkhema! I like all three of her looks, but I would really love to get a figure of her Mark 2 design from the Busiek/Perez Avengers run!

I remember when Vision went full-density on her weighing her down at 90 tons, and then she proceeded to just pick him up and throw him!

I would love multiple versions of Conan in Marvel Legends - but sadly it seems extremely unlikely to happen.    Marvel had the license to publish Conan stories back for three years from 2019 through 2021 but Hasbro would have had to work out separate rights with the Howard estate to make figures I think which is why Conan didn't show up in Legends during that 3 year window.     Now the publishing rights are held by another company again so Conan couldn't be part of Marvel Legends even if Hasbro had the inclination to work something out.   

 

So sadly we are unlikely to ever see Conan Marvel Legends -  though they would definitely be fun.   Our best hope is that one of the several other companies pumping out Conan figures will make one that is Legends compatible enough for displays.    And hey,  Conan is set to join the cast of the next Mortal Kombat game -  so maybe there'll be a licensed figure opportunity for someone in conjunction with that?

 

Anyway - Alkhema would be welcome on the shelf.   A female version of Ultron wasn't my favorite concept, but I own the comics she was in and I'd buy the figure if it was made.

Day #1127 - Basilisk (Basil Elks), plus Danger (Archive Day #411B)

I can't believe I buried Basilisk in a group of other characters instead of giving him his own day. So here he is, featured on his own day.

I'd buy Basilisk! Although an update to Danger is probably needed, I'm also personally fine with the one that we have and would rather they make someone new to the line.
