Got to say, @beamish, I like all the love you’ve been giving to Marvel’s Golden Age lately.

So naturally I’d say “yes” to Citizen V, although I would prefer the long pants version.

Pluto would be alright too (I’ll bet you were expecting a Disney joke).  Handbook version would be preferred..

Yes, I'd happily buy both - but of the two I'd rather have Pluto.

Like all other Golden Age characters, if offered in a boxed set, in a BaF wave, or in a way that showed Hasbro was serious about giving us more of them, I could be tempted by the original Citizen V. But he's low on my want list. I mush prefer the modern Zemo-designed look.

Fully in for Pluto. Classic Handbook as always, but honestly he's a character where multiple looks work well.

Kyllian Kell – no

Lady Punisher -  please no

Ovoids -  I mean… probably not

 

Steel Serpent -   big yes to Davos… his appearances in Marvel Team Up are some of my first comics memories -  it didn’t hurt that it was John Byrne art in those issues, and what I didn’t know at the time, was it was the continuation of the final story from the Iron Fist solo book.    I love the Iron Fist story and Steel Serpent is very important to that.   It’s definitely a figure I want.

 

TV Super Heroes -  as much kitschy fun as they would be I wouldn’t buy them

 

Movie Carter Slade -  pass

 

Comic Korg -   another big yes.   They repurposed the Thing figure from the 4” Marvel Universe line with a new head and overlays to deliver comic Korg and if that’s how we had to get him in Legends I’d take it.   But, since the movies Korg is obviously the most recognizable and important of the Warbound to get.    So yes I want him.

 

Dakim -   nah, thanks.  There are a couple of wizened wizard type characters I wouldn’t mind buying for the collection but this weirdo isn’t on the list.

 

Spidercide -   I’d buy it.   I’m frankly a bit shocked they haven’t already done him.   They put so many Spider-verse types into the line it’s a tad strange they’ve mostly steered around the Clone Saga types.

 

Commander Kraken -  I’d pass.   Small time bugger would be too small time to bother spending the money on.

 

Graymalkin -   yep,  X-men kid,  I’m in.

 

Old school Citizen V -   that’s probably a pass.   If they made this guy before the bevy of World War II era characters I want.

 

Pluto -  if they made him I would buy him.    Who doesn’t need the god of the underworld on their shelf.

Baroness Zemo never made a big impact on me.  If we got her, fine.  If she never got made, I wouldn’t particularly miss her.

I’d be in for Shockwave though.  The Handbook look there would be preferred.

I'd buy both if they were made, but neither are a priority for me to want made.

No thanks on Baroness Zemo.   I'm not down for all the genderswaps, really.

 

I would absolutely buy a figure of Shockwave though.

To be fair, Baroness Zemo isn’t really a “gender swap”.  She was the “wife” of Helmut Zemo, raising, with him, a slew of “adopted” kids in his warped ideology. She herself was similarly brainwashed, to the point that she made herself like him (as in the panel).  In the story she wasn’t a replacement for Helmut, but intended to be a partner.
