McFarlane has been releasing a lot of product from a lot of different media lately, and one of those tv shows they're tapping into is the anime One Punch Man which is filled with lots of bizarre and fan favorite characters. So far they're only done the title character, and while I'm unsure about whether or not they'll continue the line I'm still excited for what could eventually come out of it and have thought about the top 5 One Punch Man characters I want most from McFarlane's line of figures. So on with the list!

5. Sonic
Sonic has been a recurring character throughout the show and has participated in more than a few fights within the show's run. He wen't up against Saitama himself, and also fought against the mighty Deep Sea King whom he nearly bested before the rain began to fall and heighten the Deep Sea King's power. His purple and black outfit would look very slick and neat in figure form, alongside his swords.

4. Lord Boros
This was the final villain of the show's first season and it was a wild design for a crazy powerful villain who actually gave One Punch Man a nearly worthy opponent. Being able to take a few hits from the main hero, it made Boros stand out against all the previous villains and aside from that, his design is one that in figure form would look beautiful. His one eyed head and colorful design would translate awesomely.

3. Genos
Saitama looks lonely on the shelf by himself and there's no better companion or likely figure to join him than his sidekick, Genos. The cyborg sidekick joined One Punch Man on many of their adventures with a crazy array of robotic powers that aid him in battle. This would be the most obvious figure to join the hero in the line, being the second main character of the show, and hopefully the line continues so we can get a figure of him.

2. Deep Sea King
I mentioned him earlier in this post, and I'll say it here that my favorite arc from the entire first season was the Deep Sea King arc. I loved watching the heroes do their best to fight back but ultimately fail, showing how far they would fight to protect those in danger even if they felt like they didn't stand a chance. The Deep Sea King's design is also very toyetic and cool, though I can't decide whether or not I think they should go with his dried out version, or powered up version, though either way I figure he'll be out of scale like the upcoming All Might figure from McFarlane.

1. Mumen Rider
My absolute favorite character int he show is Mumen Rider. I love how he is just a regular guy trying to be a hero, even when he knows that he isn't strong enough to be a high ranking hero. He refuses to be ranked up because he knows he is the right material for the higher ranks, but still continues to help whether he feels he can, such as stalling Deep Sea King so the true heroes could arrive. Mumen Rider has the true soul of a hero, and I truly hope that the line continues and we can get a figure of this cycling hero.
