Top 5 most wanted Hasbro Marvel Legends figures based on Spiderman: No Way Home

SPOILERS ahead for Spiderman: No Way Home, Marvel's MCU swan song for 2021 and a movie that I think really hit home for a lot of fans! I repeat again, this post will have SPOILERS galore so if you haven't seen the movie yet, stay away! With the warnings out of the way, No Way Home is definitely one of the biggest hits of the MCU and it makes sense when you see what the movie achieved! Characters from across the Spiderman cinematic universe have been brought back and reutilized in fantastic ways, making Dafoe's Green Goblin one of the best MCU villains, and providing respectful returns of Andrew and Tobey's Spidermen! One thing that Marvel hasn't handled well though regarding the movie has defintiely been the action figure roll out! For the Marvel Legends line we got both of Holland's two prominent looks in the movie, as well as Doctor Strange and J. Jonah Jamerson...and that's it. After having not even the movie but just the trailers it is so apparent that there are so many figures missing and in this list I'm going to be counting down my top 5 most wanted Marvel Legends figures from this film!



5. Lizard
Starting off this list is the Lizard who I'd argue gets the least amount of the movie to play around in but it was still great to see the character again and to see him going up against Spiderman for the first time in several years! For a figure he'd be very unique and work great as a build a figure for a second movie wave!


4. Doc Ock
They could go two ways with this figure, either giving him his regular Ock arms or the nano tech imbued arms! For my personal preference I'd like the regular arms, giving that with the nano tech arms he was held prisoner the entire movie and it was only with his regular arms that he had action sequences. Ock was for sure one of the best characters to return though, and his tentacles could be absolutely mind blowing if done right in figure form! 


3. Tobey and Andrew's Spidermen

I could talk all day about seeing the past Spidermen in the film and how much fun it was, but what isn't fun is waiting for Hasbro to give us new figures based on these two and I hope that they do it within a reasonable time! Both would be instant sell outs among fans who are now clamoring more than ever for these two, and the Marvel Legends line has already loved its Spiderman variations so seems like an easy win.


2. Electro
For sure one of the scene stealers of the movie was Electro who was much funnier and appealing than his previous performance. I absolutely loved his final look in the movie with the yellow and black, and how his face would light up with the classic comic design of lightning each time he used his powers! His lines from the movie are the ones I've been quoting the most, and for one of the fan favorites from the movie I definitely think he needs a new figure now!


1. Green Goblin
If there's any MCU figure I'm wanting now more than ever it is the Green Goblin! He truly blew away audiences and stole the movie with Dafoe's creepy, intimidating performance! He is pure evil, with many fans touting Goblin as the most vile of the MCU villains yet, and it is easy to see why with what he does in the film! Just like Electro he gets a major redesign, and in my opinion a perfect one as I love the purple hood, and the goggles! Please let this be a figure Marvel Legends makes soon for the film, along with everything else I went over, because the initial wave for this movie is so disappointing and all these stand out characters definitely deserve to be immortalized in plastic!

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 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 Jakks Pacific Sonic Badniks vol 2

(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
