Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Multiverse army builder figures

The recent wave of focus given to army builders from Marvel Legends line of figures has got me thinking about the potential army builders that exist within the DC universe and how awesome it would be to build large groups from the world of the Justice! We've technically gotten one already with the Crow Robin figure, but I know there's still plenty more out there and in this list I've thought up my top 5 DC universe army builder characters that I'd for sure buy more than one of if Mcfarlane were to produce them!

Honorable mention: Dominators
Starting off with an honorable mention, the Dominators and the Invasion! storyline were one of the first big comic crossover events on a large scale, and that alone solidified the Dominators has an iconic DC alien design that we've seen again and again throughout DC's history. Mcfarlane himself as a history with the Invasion! storyline, having worked on the original comic himself, so it'd be a great call back to his past comic book work for him to make a figure for these aliens!



5. League of Assassins
As soon as we get a Ras al Ghul or Talia al Ghul, we will need a whole fleet of League of Assassin assassins to flank them and gang up on Batman. It is one of the most well known villain groups from the Batman mythos who have never really gotten proper figures before, though that can be rectified now.


4. Talons
Another iconic group from the Batman mythos is the Talons of the Court of Owls, undead warriors who have given the Dark Knight loads of trouble in the past. They're fast, powerful, and would make a great figure design to be produced in the masses. Mcfarlane has shown a proclivity for the Batman side of DC comics, so hopefully that means the Talons have a higher chance of getting great figure representation.


3. Brainiac drones
We've gotten plenty of Brainiac figures over the years; however, we haven't before really enjoyed an outstanding figure for the drones he sends in his wake. One of the immediately seen parts of Brainiac's stories are the drones he sends down prior to his full invasion and abductions, creepy robots tough enough to take on Superman in some cases. As Mcfarlane has already started to delve into Injustice 2, that is a drone design I would really love as an action figure. 


2. Multiplex
One of my all time small time villains from the comics is Multiplex, the villain who can self duplicate sometimes endless clones of himself. I loved his turn in the Suicide Squad, and his recent presence in the Endless Winter storyline was a lot of fun, though it all started for me when I was introduced to him through the Flash CW tv show. His black uniform with blue lines running throughout is a simple design that really stands out as a crowd, and a Multiplex army is something I would certainly build without a doubt if Mcfarlane gives me the chance!


1. Parademons
Probably the most iconic and well known army builder troops from the DC universe would have to be the Parademons of Apokalips! These winged, horrifying warriors of Darkseid have appeared again and again throughout comic history, providing fodder for the heroes to battle as a necessary part of any Darkseid invasion. Whether they do the comic Parademons, or pull from the Snyder cut DCEU version coming out this year, I'm very excited for these mutated soldiers to hopefully be made into the line soon!

Top 5 most wanted Star Wars the Black Series aliens from The Phantom Menace

Image
The prequel love is very strong recently in Star Wars the Black Series, the line of 6 inch collection figures covering the Star Wars franchise. It felt like, as a prequel fan, that I was gasping for prequel figures in the collection not only a year ago but now we've had a flood of them, with another flood quickly coming! It's gotten me more excited for the line than I've been in a long time, and I've been thinking about some choice prequel characters I'd like to see! Aliens are getting a bit of a resurgence in the line as well, with prequel Jedi, Moloch, Rio, and a few others, so what better list to make than my most wanted aliens from the prequels? For this post I'm focusing in on Phantom Menace which had a great selection of aliens! And here are my top 5!

Top 5 most wanted Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

Image
(Images Source) We have been getting more and more robotic Badniks in Jakks Pacific's line of Sonic figures which is very exciting! Primary characters are great, but getting more of the background designs to fill out the scenes is awesome and we've recently got some Badniks I was eagerly waiting for like the Burrobot, Newtron, and most recently the Caterkiller!! Eggman's army is packed to the brim though with all kinds of robotic enemies, and these are five more I hope to eventually see! 5. Jaws The Chopper is not the most posable of the Badniks that we've gotten so far (not that many are very posable to begin with), but it is such a classic design from the series and another underwater enemy would be the Jaws. With Jakks Pacific steadily working through giving us little playsets themed around different levels, a set themed around the underwater sequences would be the perfect way to get this guy into the line. 4. Roller With complete transparency, I will admit that thes

Top 5 most wanted Mattel Hammond Collection dinosaurs

The Hammond Collection looks to be the collector's dream for an articulated, highly accurate line of dinosaur figures! We're getting lot's of iconic and fan favorite creatures in the line's first year, with more great figures sure to be in the line's future! (Image Source) 5. Pteranodon The version of this dino that we got from the Amber collection was pretty spot on; however, we've got a new scale to work with and so I'm needing myself a new collector's line Pteradon to fit in with the rest of the Hammond Collection we've been building up to this point! I'd be really interested to see if a flight stand would be included as well, especially since stands haven't been utilized up to this point in this line. (Image Source) 4. Quetzalcoatlus A newer dinosaur being introduced into the film series is one who looks epic brought to life! I love the head design of this massive flying beast, and just like the Pteranodon I have no doubt that the wingspa
