On first reflex, I want to say yes to the classic Handbook Ani-Men, but honestly I don’t think I’d pick them up. I have very little exposure to them in books, so I’ll say pass.
I want them all
Pass on Iron Nail.
Shark Girl would be a maybe on sale.
Eh, double pass today. Both these are past my reading days.
I'd buy both, but Shark Girl would be the priority for me of the two. Modern X-Men characters in general are my biggest wants from the line, and some civilians.

This. No clue who they are, nor do I have any desire to find out.
Both look neat. 🙂 I'd get both.
Golden Gitl would be fun to get (in gold costume). Always up for some Golden Age goodness.
Dr Faustus wouldn’t make a particularly exciting figure, so my enthusiasm isn’t very high for him. That said, I could see him having a place in the Legends line. For me, though, he’d be a clearance buy.
Golden Girl would be mostly likely a yes.
Dr. Faustus would probably be a pass. He has had some interesting storylines with Cap but I'm not too keen on civilian suit looks for most characters.
I'd get both. 🙂 Faustaus would be a great BAF or Deluxe. Plus, you could use his buck, to make a Baron Brimstone. 😀
Weekend catch up
Ani-Men
100% would love all of the original Ani-Men as figures . That 5 Man team of
Cat Man, Ape Man, Frog Man, Bird Man and Dragonfly would be awesome to have on my shelf. They debuted in Daredevil then fought the ANAD X-Men in their second monthly adventure ever. They are an absolute want of mine.
I will be honest, though, I didn’t realize they had added to their ranks so significantly in later appearances. I could probably live without Elephant Man, Giraffe Man, Boar Man, Pig-Man, and Great Horned Owl. I will admit I wouldn’t mind Rabbit-Woman as much, just to balance out the gender ratio of that original squad. But I’m definitely in for the original 5.
Iron Nail isn’t a character I’m familiar with - but both looks pictured would be cool figures to won. The monster form is imposing an interesting. The human form is also a nice look though. I’d probably buy figures of both and then track down the stories he was in to see what his deal is. I like Rick Remender sometimes, so maybe I’d like the story.
Shark Girl seems like a crazy idea but man the look in that second image is awesome and I 100% would buy that figure, no questions asked. Is that Mystique who’s head she’s chomping in the third image? Don’t need her in her human form though. Boring.
Golden Girl is maybe a pass for me. Never loved the design very much and she’s way down the list of Golden Age characters I’d like to see made as Legends figures. Like there are at least two dozen GA characters I’d rather have.
Dr. Faustus would be a yes though. I actually feel like he’s be pretty easy to do with a Joe Fixit body and some new hands and a new head. Paint the suit green and you’re off to the races. I’d definitely buy the figure though.
I'd buy both, but Dr. Faustus would be more highly desired one for me. They could also re-use that body for several other characters.
