Top 5 wanted Justice Society characters in Mcfarlane's DC Multiverse vol 2

Image
(Banner Images Source)   (Following Images Source) A Rebirth era Cyborg has been released and it seems that with the official general line up of a modern Justice League being completed the flood gates have opened for the Justice Society which I am more than thrilled about! We had gotten central figures before like Alan Scott, Jay Garrick, and The Spectre, but recent years and very recent reveals have given us more iconic members of this team like a classic Hawman, Mr. Terrific, Wildcat, and Commander Steel (though I'm utilizing him as the Citizen Steel version). Not only that, but Huntress and Power Girl both make nice additions to the JSA display, as well as to the New 52 Earth 2 display along with Val Zod. With the Justice Society more and more present in the line this is my updated wishlist from America's first superhero team! Honorable Mention: Superman (Kingdom Come) Coming in at an honorable mention will be Kingdom Come Superman who was a temporary but memorable member of

Top 5 most wanted Transformers Studio Series Autobots vol 4

(Images Source) Tagging along from my recent post talking about my latest most wanted Studio Series Decepticon figures I am now going to delve into the Autobot side of things. Hasbro's Transformers line has been running for several years now with dozens upon dozens of characters and designs under its belt and frankly putting together these lists is becoming more like lists of what characters are remaining to be made at this point! With each new movie release the list grows though, and recent additions like the War for Cybertron videogame as a source of figures means that Studio Series won't be losing steam anytime soon. With my previous big wants like G1 Brawn, Que, and Crosshairs finally brought to the line these next slots are where my sights are set next! Honorable mention: Windcharger and Ramhorn The G1 side of Studio Series is very nearly coming to a close as almost every character seen in that film has either been released in Studio Series proper or given accompanying G1

Top 5 most wanted Transformers Studio Series Decepticons vol 4

(Images Source) The Decepticons of Studio Series are reigning supreme as of late. Hatchet is finally coming to the line, the G1 Constructicons are headlining Studio Series in 2025, not to mention my other most wanted Decepticons like the G1 Insecticon team and The Fallen have all been pumped out as well. With my most wanted list nearly completely flushed out I have a new set of characters and designs I want to see adapted into figure form from across the movies and videogames that Hasbro's Transformers Studio Series line covers! Honorable Mention: WFC Brawl Brawl was always one of my favorite characters to play as in the first game of High Moon's Transformers franchise; however, with the line strictly sticking to War for Cybertron at this time and not delving into Fall of Cybertron where Brawl was a combiner part of Bruticus I'm not sure what direction this will head. Will he get a Brawl that has no combination with anyone else? Will they not approach Brawl until Fall of Cy

Top 5 favorite 2024 MCM London comic con and Hasbro 10/27 reveals

Honorable Mention: Retro Flint (Images Source) Starting off the list is going to be an honorable mention. The next wave of Retro figures for the G.I. Joe Classified line was pipeline revealed and shown to be including a new version of classic Flint! I've been waiting for this one. I wasn't a huge fan of how limited his abdominal articulation became with the big vest piece of the original release, so I'm hoping this will be my chance to get a classic inspired Flint whose articulation is better handled. G.I. Joe Classified Series Blowtorch (Images Source) Keeping with G.I. Joe, they finally revealed a Joe that I've been waiting for for a while! While not as characteristically prominent in the original show as other characters, Blowtorch was still an easily recognizable member of the Joe ranks with his brightly colored jumpsuit and the flame spewing equipment he hauled around. The figure looks to include all the great reds and yellows that will make the figure stand out on

Top 5 wanted S.H.Figuarts One Piece Water 7 and Enies Lobby saga figures

Image
  (Images Source) Out of all the early arcs in One Piece, Water 7 and Enies Lobby combined make for some of the best storytelling in the entire series! It was well written with true exploration into the characters, expansive world building, and each member of the Straw Hats saw themselves pushed physically and emotionally like never before. We were introduced to several new characters, learned so much about characters already present, and overall I finished the saga out with my jaw dropped at how much transpired. This is a saga I hope Tamashii Nations delves into fast and hard in their S.H.Figuarts line, with these upcoming slots my most wanted of the long arc! 5. Aokiji Introduced early on in the Water 7 saga (prior to the crew's actual arrival in Water 7) is Aokiji, a ruthless marine with powerful Devil Fruit abilities and ties to Robin's past that we learn more about later. His collision with the crew sparks Luffy's drive to become even stronger with how fast Aokiji neut

Top 5 favorite NYCC 2024 reveals

Image
NYCC 2024 has come and gone with numerous reveals from multiple companies making for another great showing of figures still to come for 2024 and beyond in 2025. Here I will count down some of my favorite reveals from the show, starting off with an honorable mention! (Images Source) Honorable mention: GI Joe Classified There were not any particular characters revealed for the GI Joe classified line that really wowed me this time around for reveals, but what was shown off was still very cool. The Retro release of Dr. Mindbender is a release I'm really looking forward to to get the character into my collection, and then the line delving into First Responders is very cool and the Firefighter is such a great release from the real world, especially with my best friend being a firefighter! The Hunt for the Mass Device's first reveal turned out to be a new Snake Eyes with a freaking Polar Bear which looks so cool! So while none of my most wanted were revealed or teased, what was shown
