The Results Are In! The (Un)Official Fwoosh 2024 Top 10 Poll

Thanks for this @beamish and for almost single-handedly keeping the Marvel board alive.

Long live Beamish. 😀

Yes, huge thanks to Beamish for keeping the Marvel forum exciting everyday! And another big thanks for running the Top Ten back in the original way it used to work! 

Adding a shout-out to Beamish. I don't know where you find the time, but every time I come back to this board, it's full of Beamish-created content. The "one a day" posts are great and time-consuming, but tabulating a top-ten vote is a lot of work. Thanks, Beamish!

@fingfangfoom They are the Sensai of us all. 😉 😛 lol

Maybe possible to do copy and pasting each list  into a excel page in one column. Then sorta and go thru it cleaning up some of the descriptors. Oooff. Still a lot of work.

The results are in!

Many thanks to everybody that voted!

First off, here are some tabulation clarifications:

-As stated in the first post on this thread, I added lesser totals to higher totals if a character got votes in both the standard Top 10 and the BAF/Deluxe categories. Although I combined them, the final totals did not affect the top tallies at all, meaning an added Deluxe vote for Skurge added into the standard figure total did not push him over the edge to get into the Top 10. He was already solidly there.

-I did not add or subtract any of the HasLab votes to either the Top 10 or BAF/Deluxe categories because a HasLab scale is vastly different than a character that could be packaged as either a single figure or a BAF/Deluxe.

-I did not break apart votes for 2-packs or box sets.

-I combined almost all character costumes/appearances into one tally. Such as all Iceman and Bobby Drake human form votes were combined. Same with multiple costumes for characters like Rogue. The vote breakdown is included. Votes that didn't have a specific description or were listed as 'classic' are in the final total but not the vote breakdown description.

-Iron Man in the Top 10/11: Back in the day of the old Fwoosh Forums there were a few Top 10 votes similar to this. I remember a vote where all of Tony’s armors were counted separately and how much drama that caused, either for or against. I combined all of the armors into one listing but get this: because I included all his armors he is in the Top 11, but if I were to remove him and separate his armors, the other characters in the Top 10 would remain. So really no harm, no foul.

-MCU and comic versions were counted separately.

Please keep in mind that this is how I decided to tally everything. It may not be the best way and I’m sure there may have been a more efficient way to tally and keep all votes completely separate, but this is the best I got.

And now - here's the Top 10, plus a few more!

BAF/Deluxe and HasLab results will follow soon…

So the only one of those I take a bit of issue with is the Iron Man tabulation.    I understand with a character like Phoenix or Crystal -  characters that have never been done at all before in Legends - combining votes for specific looks together.

But for Iron Man - where we already have like 100 different versions of Iron Man released in 6 inch scale I think it is definitely disingenuous to combine votes for different armors together.    In his case people are not voting for Iron Man because they want Iron Man in any form no matter what.   They are voting for a very specific iteration of Iron Man that they feel has not yet been represented or needs an update.      I think in his case the various armors should have had to stand on their own with votes and thus none of the individual armors would have made this list.    

Otherwise I think it's a pretty solid list -  though I will admit to being sad that Jack of Hearts didn't make the cut.

Wow. Six of my votes made top ten. Seven if you count She-Hulk's 2000s look. That's never happened. I think fewer people are voting. Also, Beamish, THANK YOU for putting this together. Seems like it was a lot of work!

Right... I got too caught up in my kvetching about Iron Man that I forgot the most important part.   Thank you Beamish for putting this together.     It's clearly a lot of work and it is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for doing the heavy lifting, Beamish.

None of my choices made the top 10, but I almost voted for She-Hulk. I can take solace in the fact that we're probably getting a Destiny figure this year.

All worthy choices! Take note Hasbro. And thanks again @beamish !
