Ideas for two Marvel Legends Waves: Blackheart and Shuma-Gorath

 Since I'll be getting a "Classic Thanos" soon, and eventually a Modular Armor Iron Man, the idea of having a complete Marvel Superheroes Roster is becoming a reality. Only Blackheart and Shuma-Gorath remain.

These larger/strange characters scream BAF. Sure you could make black heart a single card character, but to do him justice, the BAF approach is better. Same thing applies to Shuma-Gorath.

Blackheart Wave:
-Classic Blade (either the tomb of Dracula 70s look, or the 80s-90s pre-Wesley Snipes look)
-Johnny Blaze (Midnight Sons human look with the long ponytail and guns)
-Blackout
-Man-Wolf (I know he's not a Midnight Son, but he kinda fits with the theme)
-Jennifer Kale
-Scarlet Spider (awful new suit) He's a Midnight Sons adjacent character.
-Lilith

Basically this wave is mostly related to the Midnight sons. 


Shuma-Gorath wave: (MSH Purple)
-Classic Doctor Strange
-Baron Mordo
-The Ancient One in Astral form
-Conan
-Nightmare
-Morgan Le Fay
-Wong

This wave leans heavily into Doctor Strange stuff, since Strange is his biggest Modern Era enemy... I also dropped in an enemy from a much older era... to force customers into getting a Pulse Exclusive Hyborian age Shuma-Gorath (in green)
And so collectors won't avoid the double dipping, then let's toss in a character that would force their hand: Mephisto. Originally, I wanted to have Mephisto as a normal figure and the 2 pack being Hyborian Shuma-Gorath vs Conan, but not too sure about releasing Mephisto to the public at retail after the whole Karen vs Breaking Bad toys BS.
