The penultimate season of My Hero Academia was a roller coaster of action and emotion as the final battle has been in full force and we've seen so many incredible moments and showdowns already, with the conclusion to the saga coming in the series' 8th and final season. S.H.Figuarts has finally jumped into the My Hero Academia series and so far have unveiled three stellar looking figures all based on the 7th season of the show. Deku, Bakugo, and Todoroki have never looked better in figure form, and if they continue their focus on season 7 these would be the next five figures I hope to see going forward!
SPOILERS going forward!
5. Ingenium
Tenya is a character that we haven't gotten from Kaiyodo yet either in their Revoltech line, so I'm hoping that soon one of these two companies will finally put "Emergency Exit" into plastic form for this higher quality kind of line. The Mcfarlane version has been a great placeholder since its release; however, I'm ready for a new version that will capitalize on articulation and his angular suit design. His season 7 design would be an excellent pair piece with the recently revealed Todoroki given their epic combo scene in the show.
4. All For One
The villains of My Hero Academia are my favorite parts of the series, and All for One is absolutely at the top of the list with his cold, calculating villainy and litany of powers at his disposal. His showdown with All Might at Kamino has been one of my favorite battles from the series, and seeing him in season 7 going up against the likes of Endeavor, Hawks, and ultimately All Might once again has been thrilling. Whether we get his updated suited look or his younger, robed look I am down for either being added into the line, with a must have accessory being an alternate hand when he projected five separate abilities from each finger as a demonstration.
3. Star and Stripe
The arrival of the top American hero at the end of season 6 was a an exciting tease of what was to come, and season 7 wasted absolutely no time in having her go up against Shigaraki in what became one of the most impressive action pieces of the series with an insane ability on Star and Stripe's part. While her time in the series was short, she made a major impact with an emotional battle and powerful showing, making her one of my favorite parts of series 7 and a character I'd love for them to put into figure form.
2. Dabi
While Tenya is a season 7 design that would go well with Todoroki, Dabi is the obvious next choice in the line to go alongside his brother as a back to back release, with two major designs from the season that could be put out. His white robed look was a striking contrast to the usual blacks of his clothing, but I honestly would rather they go for his later look from the season where he took on a more demonic, burned appearance and mastered the same new technique Todoroki had put to use.
1. Armored All Might
Since the conclusion of the Kamino battle I had been wondering if we would one day get a rematch between All Might and All for One, especially once All for One broke out of prison, and season 7 brought us the rematch between these two titans. It still remains to be completed in season 8, but thus far it has been shown that even without his powers All Might has been able to stand up against All for One by use of a cool looking armored robotic suit. Seeing All Might back in action after so long has been exhilarating, and the parallel of his battle with All for One whilst Deku and Shigaraki have their down was the perfect cliffhanger for the season.
