90's Toybiz X-Men Figures: Who's Next?

I wonder if they would ever do a set like the New Mutants "3-pack". A stock body with multiple different heads. Would one body work for Banshee and Gambit? I know there would be no trenchcoat or "wings".

It should be Morph

Give him a head for every male character that wore that costume, and some weapons? What about giving him the weird sea anemone helmet that Changeling wore. I believe the Morph of AoA was supposed to be Changeling from the early years of X-Men.

Morph and Changeling at the same person, just alternate versions. I want him as close to the ToyBIz version as possible, just with his gun added.

god. Toybiz really over did it when they did this line.

They sure did and I was grateful they did. LOL

I mean, I'd pick a bunch of these figures up at Kay Bees.  IIRC, it was like 3 figs for $10.   I still have a few left in a storage bin.   One of my favorites was the Psylocke with the pink mark under her eye.

I miss kay bees, you could find the stuff there that no one else had and at great prices

The glory days of toy collecting?

I like being able to get exactly what I want when I want it with online shopping, but I fondly remember the days of hunting for certain figures in stores.

Toybiz pumped out so many variants at the end, and so many obscure choices. What I liked was how they would focus on a certain artist's rendition of a figure. That red Sabertooth (ninja force, I think) was very reminiscent of Jeff Matsuda's art on X-Factor. The battle-damaged Sabertooth was wearing the shackles from either Wolverine 90, or it was from the Phalanx Covenant era. I can't remember exactly. It's just neat that they were so focused.

just going with my personal likes, and characters who I like the look of, but yes I guess you could say they would be the obscure ones for the most part

I hear you. I wasn't being critical. I don't know anything about a guy like Killspree or Commcast, but otherwise I'd jump at any of them.

Oh yeah no doubt I didn't think so, but yeah Killspree (or once known as Killjoy I believe) really wasn't a huge character in fact, he was one of the many shoe horned in characters to fill figure waves from Toybiz (there were alot, who literally maybe showed up once in the comic and poof were given a figure), I think he only had a hand full of appearances in the comics, but was an X-Force oriented character and was part of Weapon P.R.I.M.E who was run by Department K , he was a real fleeting entity in the series but like so many 90's characters looked so damn cool

Hoo-boy!  Spat and Grovel!  Yeah, I spent actual money on those two.  Did they ever show back up after Gambit's trial?

The kicker is they were part of that "Marvel's Most Wanted" (sub?-)line along with Blink and X-Man.  Not sure how exactly "most wanted" was measured in those days.  Great figures, though!  I loved making Grovel eat Spat.

Only one from that series I could ever find was Blink.

Completely forgot about Spat and Grovel. I'd love to see them get ML figures.

I can't find most of my old Toybiz figs but I'd like to see if that old Spat (Spat is the girl right?) can fit in with my Legends. She was a great little figure.

If I were tasked with putting out a wave based entirely on not-yet-redone Toybiz 90s figures, it would look like this:

• Chamber
• Colossus (acolyte)
• Exodus
• Senyaka
• Spiral
• Storm (outback)
• Wolfsbane (X-Factor)
• BAF: Nimrod

That's right: no Wolverine.

My list hasn't changed, except for the BAF, who I'd switch to Tusk.

I would so buy a Tusk, just so obscure. WIth Tusk, Grizzly, my collection of animal esque characters continue.
