Top 5 favorite reveals from the 2024 Tamashii Nations events

Image
(Images Source) Honorable Mention: Stardust dragon and Yugi tease I haven't jumped into the Yu-Gi-Oh line quite yet but the reveals and releases so far have all looked stellar and invoked a lot of nostalgia from my childhood. The event revealed the Stardust Dragon which is from an era of the franchise I am not familiar with but I can't deny how savage this design is and how beautiful the combination of blue and silver is with the purple highlights on the chest and shoulders. Not only this but they teased the first duelist in the line with Yugi himself which is a long time coming given how many duel monsters have been put out.  1. Harry Potter I was of the mind that the Harry Potter line was dead after the Malfoy figure never materialized and the line halted with no new news for a few years at this point. Tamashii is coming back swinging however with two spectacular looking releases in a Triwizard Goblet of Fire Harry and a magnificent looking dark lord of the wizarding world hi

Top 5 most wanted DC Multiverse Infinity Inc. figures

(Images Source) With Mcfarlane leaping more and more into the Justice Society side of things, and the recent victory of Jade for the NYCC fan-vote securing her a figure release in 2025, my eye is more and more on one of my favorite sides of the DC Universe. Infinity Inc was a fantastic spinoff from the JSA featuring a lot of their children taking up superhero mantles, and is rich with designs and characters I sorely hope to see delved into as this focus on classic DC continues to ramp up. 5. Helix What I consider to be the nemesis of Infinity Inc would be Helix, a supervillain team of improperly raised metahumans that showed up multiple times throughout the line's run to cause a headache for the heroes. Mr. Bones is most obviously the one I'd want most from the group, and likely the most probable one to be made as well given his continued popularity through the years.  4. Injustice Unlimited The Injustice Society has been one of my favorite supervillain comics teams and Infinit

(Banner Images Source)   (Following Images Source) A Rebirth era Cyborg has been released and it seems that with the official general line up of a modern Justice League being completed the flood gates have opened for the Justice Society which I am more than thrilled about! We had gotten central figures before like Alan Scott, Jay Garrick, and The Spectre, but recent years and very recent reveals have given us more iconic members of this team like a classic Hawman, Mr. Terrific, Wildcat, and Commander Steel (though I'm utilizing him as the Citizen Steel version). Not only that, but Huntress and Power Girl both make nice additions to the JSA display, as well as to the New 52 Earth 2 display along with Val Zod. With the Justice Society more and more present in the line this is my updated wishlist from America's first superhero team! Honorable Mention: Superman (Kingdom Come) Coming in at an honorable mention will be Kingdom Come Superman who was a temporary but memorable member of

Top 5 most wanted Transformers Studio Series Autobots vol 4

(Images Source) Tagging along from my recent post talking about my latest most wanted Studio Series Decepticon figures I am now going to delve into the Autobot side of things. Hasbro's Transformers line has been running for several years now with dozens upon dozens of characters and designs under its belt and frankly putting together these lists is becoming more like lists of what characters are remaining to be made at this point! With each new movie release the list grows though, and recent additions like the War for Cybertron videogame as a source of figures means that Studio Series won't be losing steam anytime soon. With my previous big wants like G1 Brawn, Que, and Crosshairs finally brought to the line these next slots are where my sights are set next! Honorable mention: Windcharger and Ramhorn The G1 side of Studio Series is very nearly coming to a close as almost every character seen in that film has either been released in Studio Series proper or given accompanying G1

(Images Source) The Decepticons of Studio Series are reigning supreme as of late. Hatchet is finally coming to the line, the G1 Constructicons are headlining Studio Series in 2025, not to mention my other most wanted Decepticons like the G1 Insecticon team and The Fallen have all been pumped out as well. With my most wanted list nearly completely flushed out I have a new set of characters and designs I want to see adapted into figure form from across the movies and videogames that Hasbro's Transformers Studio Series line covers! Honorable Mention: WFC Brawl Brawl was always one of my favorite characters to play as in the first game of High Moon's Transformers franchise; however, with the line strictly sticking to War for Cybertron at this time and not delving into Fall of Cybertron where Brawl was a combiner part of Bruticus I'm not sure what direction this will head. Will he get a Brawl that has no combination with anyone else? Will they not approach Brawl until Fall of Cy

Honorable Mention: Retro Flint (Images Source) Starting off the list is going to be an honorable mention. The next wave of Retro figures for the G.I. Joe Classified line was pipeline revealed and shown to be including a new version of classic Flint! I've been waiting for this one. I wasn't a huge fan of how limited his abdominal articulation became with the big vest piece of the original release, so I'm hoping this will be my chance to get a classic inspired Flint whose articulation is better handled. G.I. Joe Classified Series Blowtorch (Images Source) Keeping with G.I. Joe, they finally revealed a Joe that I've been waiting for for a while! While not as characteristically prominent in the original show as other characters, Blowtorch was still an easily recognizable member of the Joe ranks with his brightly colored jumpsuit and the flame spewing equipment he hauled around. The figure looks to include all the great reds and yellows that will make the figure stand out on
