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

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

  (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

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

(Banner Image Source)   (Following Images Source) Things have been very quiet on the Jujutsu Kaisen front for S.H.Figuarts, but just recently they announced releases for the flashback story arc Gojo and Geto seen above, as well as a rerelease of their Yuji. These have me hoping that new figures in the line will be coming before too long despite the long hiatus of figure reveals, with lots of characters still needing to be made! 5. Mahito One of the most principal villains of the series is Mahito, wielder of extremely powerful cursed techniques that caused problems for the heroes more than a few times. His battle against Yuji in the Shibuya incident turned out to be one of the most destruction instances of Mahito's power yet, with him solidified as one of the stand out antagonists of the series. 4. Inumaki, Maki, Panda This trio hasn't been touched at all so far in the Figuarts line and are ripe for the treatment, especially to go along with the Yuta and JJK 0 Gojo that was put

The S.H.Figuarts Naruto line from Tamashii Nations is absolutely thriving and I love to see it! The offerings in this rebooted line have been splendid and every release has been a banger. The future is looking bright as well, with Pain on the way followed by Shikamaru, and a recent tease for a Tsunade figure! As it stands, we've already gotten variations on characters in the line with multiple Narutos checked off as well as the kid version of Sasuke following the Shippuden depiction. Almost every character in the franchise as an alternate costume or design they go through, and this list will be counting out my most wanted alternate designs for characters we already have in the Figuarts Naruto line! Honorable mention: Naruto (Six Paths) We're already up to our fourth distinct Naruto design in the line, and there's still plenty more to choose from to continue pumping out the main character for the Figuarts display. Another big design and moment for the character would be his
