I think more characters could benefit from the butterfly joint, and toe articulation, as long as it's the right characters. Their female articulation is lacking though, and they need more hands other than the splayed fingers and fists. I think overall Hasbro is really coming into it with the articulation. The bigger concern is the lack of accessories. Their should never be a figure that doesn't come with anything, but a BAF piece. Alt head, alt set of hands & 2 power effects should be the minimum. That's the real problem.

Here's one - the decorated general military body for Ross, Talbot & Fortean. Gloved hands, pistol, cap for Talbot, even a briefcase.

X-Men Spiral Frenzy (most recent comic look) Lady Deathstrike M Rachel (recent Phoenix) Selene Lilandra Firestar Miss America Ironheart Quake Colleen Wing Echo Nightshade She-Hulk Villains Titania Black Mamba Diamondback Sin Morgan le Fay Dr Minerva (comic) Proxima Midnight (comic)

Warriors 3 Amazing Friends Misty & Colleen Wing (comic) Power Man & Iron Fist (classics) General Ross & Red Hulk Maria Hill, Nick Fury (OG), GW Bridge Powerhouse & Brainstorm (FF - Franklin & Valeria) Parent/Child Corsair & Vulcan Banshee & Siryn Red Skull & Sin (2 heads for Sin). Sebastian Shaw & Shinobi Shaw Kravenoffs (Sasha & Vladimir) Thanos & Thane

3rd for the no-brainer Cannonball/Sunspot/Doug SHIELD (female) - Quake, Maria Hill, Sharon Carter

Hyperion Crossbones..with nothing to hide that horrid torso

Daredevil (armored) Echo Lady Bullseye Iron Fist (classic or modern) Hand Ninja (red) Gladiator Black Tarantula Moon Knight (classic) BAF Stilt Man

I picked up Rescue today, and 80tth Storm yesterday (my first time seeing it in stores EVER)...and today came the announcement lol.

I've said it before, but the Punisher Battle Van is a necessity, and fairly easy to do. Hell, 5" figures of the 80's had cars and vans (TMNT, Thundercats, He-Man). A van would be fairly cheap to produce. It's a bunch of flat parts that connect. Hasbro for Marvel Select did build-a-playset for Ghostbusters, and Cringer & Panthor came in the Mattle/Super7 MotU line. These are doable. I'd predict Lockjaw in the near future. They could even pair it with Crystal. As for the Fantasti-Car, essentially, it's 4 Prof X hover chairs that connect. Once again, doable. After all, they can't keep hitting us with the same 3 bikes (well 2, since they never did anything else with the Widow cycle). They're running out of characters

Most recently, it's been Gambit. It shocked me. Honestly, I don't think he may even get a second version.

I walk into Walgreens and they have a Moonstar, so I grabbed it. I'll try fr a second, for Wolfsbane...but a 3rd will seem difficult. I've never seen Emma. It looks like I'm gonna cave in and get X-Force Deathlok as well.

They could really do Medusa with Barbie-esque hair. That would be the perfect way to do her. it's not like they don't already do the FoD dolls. And if they really wanted to step it up, they could use bendy wire hair that was a thing in the 90's, Y'all think we'll ever get a ZZzax? Or Azazel?

Got that Punisher today. It really is a beaut. I'll go look for the Punisher WM tomorrow.

OK, now I'm just gonna go with Rachel Cole-Alves. She's fairly new, not enough appearances, will require a lot of new sculpting (even though they don't seem to care as much these days), and not many waves she could be placed in.

I don't think we'll get Count Nefaria
