Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane My Hero Academia villain figures


While the heroic cast of My Hero Academia has won over fans time and time again with their colorful, deep characters, the villains have also captured fans' attention as some of the coolest designs on the show as well as some of the most engaging story points. There would be no story without the villains to instigate battle, and despite Mcfarlane's line of figures not delving too deeply into the villain side of things yet, we've gotten plenty of the primary villains like Shigaraki, Stain, and two version of All for One! So with season five airing now, this is my list of top 5 villain figures I hope to get for Mcfarlane's My Hero Academia line!

5. Overhaul
So far we've gotten what I consider to be the main villains of the first three seasons, and that leaves us with the primary villain for a lot of season 4: Overhaul. This villain came from a Yakuza background, giving us an exploration of what these criminals operate like in a world clouded by supervillains. It was an interesting story point, and Overhaul himself with his ability to manipulate matter, and his beak-like mask would make for a cool figure.


4. Nine
The second film in the My Hero Academia series was a blast, and I cannot stress how amazing the final act of the movie was with one of my favorite fights in the series! Nine was the big bad and one of the most powerful foes yet. I've seen plenty of merchandise for him from other companies, so I figure it is about time Mcfarlane got into the pit as well and deliver Nine in his cool looking black jumpsuit!


3. Himiki Toga
While we've been able to put together a nice display of the Class 1-A heroes, another display I'd really like to start working on next would be the League of Villains. Shigaraki is a nice and obvious start; however, going forward I need some more villains to stand alongside him and Himiki Toga being one of the more popular members would be a good choice. Her schoolgirl uniform combined with the knives, wires, and canisters she adorns her outfit with would make for a unique figure design in the line.


2. Dabi
Sticking with the League of Villains, Dabi has been visually one of the most compelling characters from the villain side of things! His patchwork face has so much history behind it, and his use of blue flames always make for an amazing visual. His brief battle against Endeavor in the opening scene of the second movie was a showdown I was so excited to see play out, and I'm anticipating some cool blue fire effects if Mcfarlane ever makes this guy.


1. Kurogiri
Stretching back all the way to season 1 of the show, Kurogiri has been one of the longest running villains in the cast and someone who would be really cool to see made into the line! While his mass of floating cloud-esque form wouldn't be the most posable, I think his more casual design in the suit would be more feasible for an action figure, with his ethereal head topping off having the potential to be an awesome sculpted piece.

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...
