HUGE YES to Basilisk - loved that character from way back partly because Team-Up and Two-In-One were two of my favorite books as a kid. After X-Men and Avengers Team-Up and Two In One were my go to must have titles. So Basilisk appearing twice in Team Up and once in Two In One seemed to me like he was a big deal villain... I didn't realize he didn't have a ton of appearances outside of those books. I always wondered why he didn't get invited into the Serpent squad... sure a Basilisk is a lizard, not a snake, but look at him, he's snake adjacent enough he should have got the call. Anyway, I want that figure.
I have a Legends figure of Danger. Do I care that it's kind of a crappy figure? No, I do not, because Danger was a crappy character. So she got the figure she deserved and I have a figure of her on my shelf and that's all that's necessary. Please don't waste a slot on another figure of this garbage concept.
Big yes to Basilisk. Pass on Danger.
Of course yes to Basilisk! I really really really hope they make him.
I would buy an updated figure of Danger but wouldn't give it a second thought if they never did one.
Yes to Conan the Barbarian, Alkhema, Basilisk (only know of this character because of Basil Elks), and Danger.
Yes to both, and obviously, especially Basil Elks Basilisk. <3 My 2nd most wanted character, ever. 😀
Who is number one?
Definitely yes on Basilisk. I'll take another Danger too - wouldn't be my top want, but it seems obvious she'll get remade. The design could make a much, much cooler figure than what we got with the right paintwork, so hopefully they knock it out of the park.
I'm a big fan of Whedon's X-Men run but I don't need Danger. I always thought she was a stupid concept.

Oh thank goodness. I tend to think of you as intelligent and having good taste (your fandom of OSU aside) but knew how devoted you are to Whedon's X-Men and so was dreading to see you come to the defense of by far his worst idea on the X-Men. Happy to see your judgement could be trusted after all 😉
Yes to Basilisk! I'd get a Danger re-do, but as others have said not one I'm particularly clamoring for on the re-do front.
No, I do not, because Danger was a crappy character.
This! No need for a Danger figure in my collection.
However, Basilisk would be a definite purchase! Cool character and look.
What’s so bad about Danger?

It was a garbage idea - the Danger Room developed sentience and decided to take revenge on the X-Men. Stupid, awful - I hated all of it.
Honestly I could have lived with the idea that the Danger Room had developed some level of sentience and whatever - but the manifestation in physical form as a sexy lady robot and the revenge mision vendetta to destroy Xavier and everything that came after was just so, so bad. Absolutely one of my least favorite non-Chuck Austen X-Men ideas ever.
