I'm all for this, and the Tie Fighters are no doubt one of the most iconic vehicles in the Star Wars universe and there are so many fantastic variants out there for this line to encompass! We've only gotten a handful of the typical ones so far, a standard Tie, battle damaged variant, Vader's Tie, Sabine's custom Tie, and newly the First Order version (which isn't very different); however, there are a galaxy of Tie Fighter designs to be introduced into this awesome line, and these are the top 5 I want to see!  Honorable mention: Tie Silencer and Whisper (Image 1 Source)   (Image 2 Source) Just below my top five is Kylo Ren's Tie fighters from the sequel trilogy. Both look epic in their own right and the extremely elongated wing tips give a striking silhouette to these

(Image Source) Aside from the Batman mythos and Superman mythos, the Flash comics are definitely feeling a lot of love in the Mcfarlane toyline and we've gotten several different versions of several speedsters already in the line! Multiple Barry Allens, Wallys, Jays, a couple Reverse Flash, not to mention further supporting cast members like Godspeed, Impulse, and the Death Metal Dark Flash! I personally really love the Flash comics so getting so much figure representation from them has been awesome, and these are five more Flash designs I hope speed into the collection next! Honorable mention: Negative Flash (Image Source) This one could be achieved with a simple repaint of our typical Rebirth Flash mold that we've seen a few times at this point. The Negative Flash storyline was one of my favorites from the Rebirth run, stuffing Barry with negative energy, and giving him a wicked new look with plenty of black pulsing through his usually red costume!  5. New 52 red and gold sui

(Image Source) Sonic Prime is the newest Sonic the Hedgehog tv show to air and it literally flips the world upside down for the heroes! While it ends on a cliffhanger setting up a definite part 2, Sonic Prime was a ton of fun and brought us through an entertaining adventure with unfamiliar versions of familiar characters! While the primary cast is comprised of series mainstays Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, Big, Rouge, and Eggman, we get several new spins of them and their designs thanks to the Shatterverse, and I sorely hope that Jakks Pacific soon dives into these designs for their Sonic toyline! 5. Mr. Dr. Eggman (Image Source) As the primary villain of the series, Eggman isn't a solitary force anymore as much as he has become a whole Chaos Counsel. 5 members of the Eggman family out to rule the world, but most clearly Mr. Dr. Eggman is meant to be the big egg himself in charge, and the darkest timeline's version of the primary Dr. Robotnik. I wouldn't be opposed to the wh

(Image Source) The Flash movie has hit hard with an awesome looking Super Bowl trailer, and Ezra Miller controversy aside I'm so excited for so many things in this movie from Supergirl to double Batman to kind-of-Flashpoint to freaking General Zod!! More than that, I'm excited to see what kind of toyline rollout Mcfarlane will give for this movie! Past movies have all gotten a whole assortment of characters, but the most recent film, Shazam 2, only got the titular character and I'm hoping that won't be the case for this film. We've already had the reveal of the main hero himself in his new streamlined costume design, and hopefully it doesn't stop there because here are 5 more characters from The Flash (2023) I hope to see from Mcfarlane! 5. Barry #2 (Image Source) One of the biggest questions surrounding that original trailer was regarding the second Barry Allen we see, and with recent developments about the plot and story of the movie being revealed I'm thi

(Image Source) While there were a lot of things I don't feel the Star Wars sequel trilogy did right, and those films didn't leave a lasting impression on me, one thing I can say is that a lot of the vehicle designs in the trilogy were very cool! A lot of them were all redesigns of classic ships but there were a few new ones thrown in, and all of them brought a hefty dose of Star Wars flavor. Jazwares hasn't touched the sequel trilogy all that much in their first couple waves of Micro Galaxy Squadron, but these are a few sets I wouldn't mind seeing once they get around to it.  5. Poe's X-Wing (Image Source) One of the characters I actually didn't mind from the sequel trilogy was Poe Dameron, and he even got his own personal painted X-Wing! The X-Wings of the sequel trilogy are too notably different from what came before, the biggest change being the shape of the turbines (I think they're turbines, I'm not a Star Wars engineer), but it is the black and ora

(Image Source) Following up on Batman Eternal was Batman and Robin Eternal, another weekly comic event for the Bat family that I think I enjoyed even more than the first Eternal title! Much shorter than Batman Eternal, allowing for tighter story telling and less divergent plot points, Batman and Robin Eternal saw the Bat family in the absence of Bruce following the Endgame storyline unravelling a decades old secret that Bruce had been tangled within years ago. It did some great character building for a lot of characters in the series, introduced a very shadowy organization with a very compelling mystery behind Batman's prior involvement, not to mention a great plot reveal regarding the history of Bluebird's origin! Despite Mcfarlane's heavy focus on Bat themed characters we're still missing several important ones, a lot of which will appear on this list! 5. Red Hood (Image Source) For part of the series Jason took on a new design that saw something of a vest look integr

(Image Source) I was a huge fan of the Christopher Nolan Batman trilogy when it came out and still really enjoy those movies when I go back and watch them! So I was extremely excited when Mcfarlane revealed that he is making a wave of figures based off that trilogy that encompasses Batman and several of the main villains from the series! We rarely get live action figures as well unless it is for an upcoming movie, so to see him go back to an existing film to produce figures also makes me hopeful he'll go back one day for other older live action films! The Dark Knight trilogy wave we're getting is pretty much perfect, giving us Batman himself from The Dark Knight along with Scarecrow, Two Face, Joker, and Bane! I hope it doesn't stop there though, and that we get a few more characters that I'll list off here! 5. Batman (Batman Begins) (Image Source) The first film in the trilogy isn't talked about nearly as much as the others, but Batman Begins is a very solid film t

(Image Source) Batman Eternal was an epic weekly run from the New 52 that definitely ranks among my top favorite Batman runs from that era! Kicking off with a cataclysmic accident in Gotham, we follow Batman as he runs the gambit of his greatest foes trying to find out who is behind all of the trauma happening, leading up to a great twist with plenty of spotlight to be given to plenty of the Bat family throughout! There will be spoilers for the comic series as a heads up before I jump into my top 5 most wanted Mcfarlane DC Multiverse figures! 5. Batman (Image Source) All of the Batmen figures we've gotten so far and no New 52 Batman, one of his most prominent looks in the last several years! It hunkers down on the grays and blacks, with the same linework throughout that a lot of the New 52 designs are known for. The New 52 Batman core series was the first Batman comic I read when I first got into comics, so this design for the Bat is certainly one I'm fond of, especially when i
