Top 5 most wanted Marvel Legends MCU villains

While Marvel's films have certainly boasted plenty of lackluster villains that fans will poke fun at, the franchise has also yielded us some of the best comic book movie villains across the genre! From the likes of Loki to Thanos to Zemo there are plenty of villains to be excited about, and that extends to the Marvel Legends side of things as many times I find the villains often make for the cooler action figures! We've been getting a lot of missed villains in the line in these past years like Iron Monger and Surtur to name two, but there are still a great deal of MCU antagonists that need to make the jump to action figure form! These are five of the baddies I want most! 





5. Chitauri
The perfect army builder for the MCU line to delve into, these alien warriors have become iconic in the realm of the movie franchise as the army the Avengers fought in the first movie the team featured in! They have been seen a couple times again throughout the franchise, namely in the time travel sequence during Endgame, but that very first Avengers movie is what really put these guys on the map for collecting fans. 


4. Whiplash
We've gotten Iron Monger, now the line should move onto the second film in Iron Man's franchise to play catch up with another awesomely designed supervillain that so far has been ignored by the line! Whiplash had two very cool costume designs, with his look during the racetrack showdown probably one of the best designs for a Marvel villain throughout phase 1! His armored look later in the movie was also really cool, but if I had a choice I'd want that first stand out look!


3. Electro
I understand that Marvel were trying to keep a lot of things secret when it came to No Way Home, but with all the villains being clearly present in the marketing movie they could have at least given us figures for some of them as the villains of No Way Home were hands down my favorite part of the movie aside from the Spidey trio! I had no personal problem with Electro's Sony design, but his redesign in the MCU beats it out for me and hopefully we'll get some kind of big villain pack to represent this movie one day.


2. Abomination
I couldn't be more excited for Abomination to be in the MCU again after not seeing him for over a decade after Incredible Hulk! He is one of my favorite MCU villains in terms of character and design, and while I'm a bit sad that they've altered his design from his original appearance it's one I'm still liking and hoping to see a figure of now that he's more of a character again, and the MCU is more of a priority in the Marvel Legends line. 


1. Green Goblin
Emil Blonsky would have been top spot if it hadn't been for No Way Home giving us one of the greatest villains in the entirety of the MCU, and the comic book genre overall! Bringing back Willem Dafoe's Green Goblin was one of the best choices the MCU has ever made and his vile, frightening Green Goblin proved himself as one of the cruelest and dangerous villains as he wrought destruction throughout Holland's third film. Adding the purple hoodie to his costume and exposing his face really rounds it out in a perfect way for me, and I've never wanted a Green Goblin figure more than I do now!

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

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
