Top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Multiverse Blackest Night figures vol 2

Mcfarlane hit us with one of the best waves of figures he has done so far when he released the Blackest Night wave of figures! Not only did we get a great Kyle and Atrocitus, but the bread and butter of the wave was no doubt the Black Lanterns that are scaring up the display shelf now! Deathstorm, Superman, and Batman look unequally epic as Black Lantern zombie figures from Mcfarlane; not to mention the perfectly timed release of the accompanying mega figure Nekron who I can't wait to add to the display! I immediately need more Blackest Night from Mcfarlane with this first wave proving how well he can handle the decayed, zombified source material! These would be my top choices for who we would get next!





5. More deputy lanterns and New Guardians
I'll take more Lantern characters any day of the week regardless of what color they hail from, and there's still so many great characters that need to be brought out by Mcfarlane like Sinestro and Star Sapphire now that we have Hal Jordan and Atrocitus.  The deputy lanterns from Blackest Night would make an amazing set on their own as well, with Blue lantern Flash and Yellow lantern Scarecrow being a couple of my top picks from this group.


4. Black Hand
Just as we have Nekron to lead the Black Lantern corps on the shelf, Black Hand would fit in perfectly as the other appointed head of the corps! The physical embodiment of death and one who helped lead the entirety of the Blackest Night event, Black Hand is a figure integral to the Blackest Night storyline and one I don't think should be left out of a potential wave 2!


3. Black Lantern Martian Manhunter
Seeing this guy face off against Barry and Hal early on in the storyline was a delightful fight to watch unfold, especially with Martian Manhunter pointing out that he has all the powers of Superman which everyone always seem to forget. It is one of the encounters during the storyline that has stuck with me the most and with Hal and Barry already in the line it would make it an easy display to add this guy to! 


2. Black Lantern Hawkman and Hawkgirl
Two more terrifying designs to add to the line, Hawkman and Hawkgirl were part of one of the most upsetting scenes of the storyline early on as Elongated Man and Sue Dearbon slaughter the two of them and add them to the ranks of the undead. Their wings would be the biggest selling point to me when it comes to their Black Lantern potential figures, as they would big massive, bony appendages devoid of the usual feathers!


1. Black Lantern Elongated Man
Still reigning in the top spot, Elongated Man was pure nightmare fuel in the Blackest Night event and I've already mentioned the horrifying scene in which he helps murder the Hawks. Stretching all around like a spiraling demon, Elongated Man could easily fit into the build a figure release slot to encompass how winding he made himself. The headsculpt would have to be perfect as well and capture the flared nostrils for the character "smelling a mystery," as he declares.

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 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
