Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Retro Batman 66 figures vol 2

While I do wish that Mcfarline's line of Retro 66 Batman figures based on the Adam West TV show were super articulated and in the same scale as the typical DC Multiverse figures, the figures they've been producing are still lots of fun and it's great to have this expanding line of characters from the classic tv show! At this point we've gotten a lot of all the typical members that are checked off first, with Catwoman, Riddler, and Penguin rounding out the main cast. I'm very compelled to see what Mcfarlane's does next with the line, and I have my next most wanted listed out!




5. Other Catwomen

I thought for sure that when we got a Catwoman it would be the Julie Newmar version who portrayed Catwoman for most of the series, and even returned in the animated Return of the Caped Crusaders movie! Eartha Kitt's Catwoman is a very welcome surprise though as I don't see her get quite as much attention from her time in the series! I am holding out for Newmar and Meriwether's versions to be made eventually though, and then we could have all three actresses from one company. 


4. Egghead
Getting into more of the B-list villains from the series who didn't get as much recognition as the big names like Riddler and Penguin, Egghead was a very fun villain and one whose egg-shaped noggin would be a lot of fun to get from Mcfarlane toys! Being made as an action figure would be even cooler given how Nicolas Cage recently expressed interest in playing a scary version of Egghead in the movies!


3. Batgirl
Holding over from the previous list, Batgirl is the third Bat-themed hero in the series and one of the few female characters overall. I've mentioned before how much I like the predominantly purple costume, and I'm honestly surprised that we haven't see this figure made in the line quite yet.


2. King Tut
Another of those classic B-list villains from Adam West's rogues group is King Tut, who has a very toyetic design that would translate well into an action figure. His Egyptian themed costume would contrast nicely with all the other designs in the line. He would also be a dive into those aforementioned B-list villains, something not many other companies have really done at a mass market scale. 


1. Mr. Freeze
It astounds me that this character wasn't typically included with Joker and the others with the show's recognition, being a popular character from the comics and one whose costume design is extremely fun as well! I love the iceman uniform he is wearing, and I hope that Warner Bros ban on guns affects Mcfarlane giving Freeze his iconic ice gun!

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

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...
