Yes, yes, YES to Black Mamba! More Serpent Society!! MORE!!

Pass on Supercharger.

I'm really, REALLY hoping Hasbro makes the switch to team-based Haslabs next year, and starts it off with The Serpent Society, giving us a lot of the tougher characters to make like Anaconda, Bushmaster, and Death Adder, and more scantily-clad characters like Black Mamba and Asp, for starters.

I don't know anything about Supercharger....  the costume looks a little goofy... like a modern interpretation of a silver age created design or whatever.    Not something I need in my collection at all.

 

Black Mamba on the other hand is a huge want.   I need a complete Serpent Society and Black Mamba is a big part of that.     She's maybe 5th (or 6th) on my list of snake team characters I want for my shelf -  but that's only because the others are even bigger wants..    Sidewinder,  Anaconda, Death Adder, Asp and then Black Mamba.  (or Diamonback...)   But the reality is I desperately want all of those, so yes please for Black Mamba.

Thank you for putting into words pretty much my exact thoughts on these two choices.

Hells ya to Black Mamba. More Serp Society and especially more Masters of Evil.

Yes to Black Mamba! For both the Serpent Society and the B.A.D. Girls.  A situation where I wouldn't mind the more modern costume.

Black Mamba is a definitive’Yes!’.  Like many others have said here, the more Serpent Society, the better.

 

Supercharger… who?   Not a big desire for me.  I might consider a well executed (electrocuted?) figure of him, but I don’t see that happening.

I’ll be the one person that says yes to Supercharger and no to Black Mamba.

So...  while I think the personified concept characters like Infinity and Eternity and what not are cool and work on the comic page -  I'm less sold on the idea of them as action figures.    First of all they would need to be oversized -  12 inches or more, to really work.   Regular sized depictions of the characters would seem odd.   And the deco required to do them right seems beyond what Hasbro would likely be willing to contribute outside of a HasLab or something.    So,  I'm just not itching for these characters to appear in the figure line, mostly because I think the figures that got done would be disappointing.

 

As for the Champions of Xandar -  they aren't high on my list of needs or anything.   Obviously Nova Prime would be fairly easy to do -  they have the Nova helmet and basic body, so just add a cape.    Of the members I'd be most interested in Diamondhead and Comet would be enough... but Powerhouse and Crimebuster to round out the team in that final image wouldn't be bad and I'd probably cave and buy them.   Protector would be the last of them I'd need or want and frankly wouldn't care if he didn't get made,  even if the rest of them did.

I'm definitely a Yes for the Champions of Xandar, and while I'd also be a Yes for Infinity, it would only be as an oversized figure. Characters like her of a cosmic nature need to be big.

Same. Always loved the CoX's looks so they'd be a yes from me. Love the design of Infinity, but not sure how she would work as a figure.

I like the idea of Infinity, but it would necessitate an Eternity and Haslab treatment, which I’m sure wouldn’t fund (I'd support it though). As with Love and Hate, Master Order and Lord Chaos, and Tenebrous and Ageis these dyads are set pieces that feel odd alone.

 

YES, YES, YES to Champions of Xandar! I just received my Marvel Unlimited red Nova making this a timely “One a Day!”

Don't see how Infinity would be done in a proper way by Hasbro.  So pass.

I think I'm good with just the Nova figure I already have.  Pass on Champions of Xandar.

I'd take a not too big Infinity, but like others have said I'd want Eternity too.
