Top 5 most wanted Transformers WFC Kingdom Beast Wars figures vol 3


G1 has dominated the Transformers toyline for so long that when Studio Series was revealed it was like a breath of fresh air, and that fresh air was hit us even harder with the third chapter of the War for Cybertron trilogy. Kingdom has a major focus on Beast Wars, one of the most beloved non-G1 Transformers shows and the updates to classic characters from this portion of Transformers history has been fantastic! This will be my third list talking about the Beast Wars characters I want updated into the modern line, proving how well Hasbro is covering Beast Wars ground, and from my last list we've now got Optimus Primal, Dinobot, and Rhinox all taking up shelf real estate. So with the hope that there are lots more Beast Wars surprises in the future for us, this is my vol 3 of most wanted Beast Wars updated figures from Hasbro!

5. Terrorsaur
Essentially filling the role of cunning, backstabbing subordinate Starscream held during G1, Terrorsaur transforms into an awesome pteradon and got a fair amount of play during the original show. At this point, the Predacon presence in the Kingdom line is pretty small compared to the Maximals we've gotten so hopefully we get more Predacons soon to balance this out, and Terrorsaur would be a great choice.


4. Inferno
Essentially the opposite of Terrorsaur, Inferno is deathly loyal to Megatron and to the Predacon reign. This Predacon also has a very unique alternate mode, becoming a huge ant which is something you definitely do not see much of in Transformers. That's one of the things I love most about Beast Wars, as the alternate modes are so unique and unlike anything else in the franchise. 


3. Tarantulas
You might be noticing a trend so far with so many Predacons appearing on the list. Like I mentioned before we simply just haven't gotten many of them, and any of these options I've been mentioning would be great candidates to come next! Tarantulas' tarantula alternate form would be awesome if Blackarachnia is anything to go off of, and I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing it come to fruition in Kingdom.


2. Tigatron
Jumping back over to the Maximals for a moment, this may be the character from that faction most noticeably missing from the line up now. He recently received a fantastic looking Masterpiece figure, and I think its time as well as general retail to get their own updated Tigatron. Loner characters have distinctively always been some of the coolest among cast members, and his love for earth and peace only make him cooler in my book.


1. Waspinator
Now if there is one character overall who is noticeable missing from the line up we've amassed so far, it is no doubt the loud, impulsive, disgusting Waspinator! He is one of the most iconic characters to come out of the original Beast Wars tv shows, his design and voice very recognizable among long time fans, and if Waspinator doesn't appear soon in the line we riot. Food for thought for Hasbro: make him a Fossilizer, homaging Waspinator's tendency to get blown apart!

Top 5 most wanted NECA Back to the Future figures

NECA gave us a huge surprise this year with the reveal of a full range of action figures for the Back to the Future franchise! This is definitely one of the most popular franchises out there and I didn't know that I needed action figures for it until now! So far we've had a couple of reveals in the form of Marty from the first movie, Marty in the second movie, Marty in his spaceman costume, and then Biff from the first movie. The movies don't have the biggest cast that are ideal for action figure treatment, but I've thought up five from the three movies that need to come into the line after these four!

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

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...
