Top 5 most wanted Mattel Masters of the Universe Masterverse figures vol 3

Despite the split responses it got from fans, I was a huge fan of the Masters of the Universe Revelations show that aired on Netflix, and cannot wait for the upcoming Revolution follow up! It brought He-Man into the modern era of entertainment for more mature audiences, and with it was concurrently launched one of the best He-Man lines in my collecting experience! Mattel's Masterverse line has been an absolute delight, and the line has only soared higher and higher with it now encompassing all He-Man related media which has allowed tons of characters and designs from outside the Revelations series to be updated in figure form! Revelations still remains my wheelhouse though when it comes to my most wanted figures, and with a few of my most wanted now a reality such as Roboto, Orko, and the Sorceress, this is my updated list of top 5 most wanted Masters of the Universe figures from Mattel's Masterverse line!




Honorable mention: Armored Merman
We got the present day Merman in the line which was the character's primary look in the series, and while I did like the look we got for him, my preferred would have been the armored look we witnessed in the show's flashbacks! At this point I'm expecting the next Merman we get will likely be a New Eternia version which itself will likely satiate my desire for an armored Merman.



5. King Randor
This character's role in the story become quite a bit more sizable in the show's second half, hitting some big emotional beats when it came to his relationship with his son, Adam, and then getting to take on some action oriented roles as well during that final battle! We've so many characters already that use swords and axes, another who uses guns would shake things up quite a bit. Not to mention that a figure of this character would pair well with the Savage He-Man we got!


4. Orko (part 2)
One of my favorite aspects of the Revelations shows was taking Orko and turning him into one of the emotional centerpoints of the series! I loved him, and was terrified when it seemed as though he died taking down Scareglow. The character made a triumphant return during the final battle though, sporting a fancy new robe and a powerful set of magic skills!


3. Teela (Sorceress)
Another character who got a big boost during the show's finale was Teela who took on the mantle of Sorceress from her mother, albeit in a whole new way as she could leave Castle Grayskull, and went up against Evil-Lyn in an epic showdown! We've gotten two versions of Teela already in the line with the present day version and first episode version both checked off the list, and one of her coolest designs would complete the Teela trinity!


2. Clamp Champ and Buzz-Off

Taking the top two spots are actually more of the background characters from the series; however, I honestly think a lot of them had some of the coolest designs! The line has already displayed that it is looking into those characters as well, giving us a few like Spikor and Fisto! On the heroic side of things we definitely need Clamp Champ to go along with Fisto! Especially after their tragic deaths. And while a specific character wasn't pinpointed as "Buzz-Off" in the finale there were plenty of flying soldiers who bore the same design!


1. Whiplash and Clawful
Them swinging over to the villain side of things, these are both some monstrous characters who would look outstanding in the line! I would happily take either design of Whiplash they want to go with, whether it be his more classic look in the flashback or the present day Techno-cult variant; just so long as he has a massive articulated tail! Clawful is one that I've wanted since the first episode in the series, his design first being used as a disguise for Evil-Lyn to infiltrate Castle Grayskull before the character more properly appeared in the series' second half.

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
