Another year and another Marvel Legends Wishlist. It totally has nothing to do with my ability to preorder a Rhino from BBTS...
May Parker: The Amazing Spider-Girl:
We got one with the Phil Urich Hobgoblin BAF, but she was underwhelming. I'm suggesting redemption for young MayDay...
Improved crotch articulation so she can do Spidey poses, double joint elbows, extra hands, new MayDay Parker head, and if possible, already existing web effects. (Hasbro's choice)
Ben Reilly:
A Repaint of the Peter Parker figure. Maybe toss in some extra hands for wall crawling.
Ezekiel:
The Suit Body with the Parker Shirt and Weapon X feet, extra wall crawling hands, extra gripping hands, knife.
Kaine (90s):
Mandatory request from The House of Rants. Preferably 100% new sculpt would be needed.
Spider-Man: Beyond
The new Retro Spider-Man body repainted in the Beyond Outfit.
The Spot:
The main reason he's here is for cost-cutting purposes, since he'd be a kitbash of existing parts.
Prodigy: Slingers set
Using the Moon Knight body with a new head, belt, boots and cape would make it easy for Hasbro.
Dusk: Slingers set
Female body with a Spidey head and cloth cape... another bidget saving figure.
Ricochet: Slingers set
The Cyclops body with a new head and arms, and a jacket would make easy work out of Ricochet.
Hornet: Slingers set
This one would require a lot of new tooling, hence the cost saving kitbashes on the other slingers.
Carrion:
We pretty much have all the pieces sans head. Main reason is to complete Team Maximum Carnage.
Anna May Parker: The Spiderling (kid)
The idea is to have a Kid buck that could be used for Katie Power, Valeria Richards, and Gabby Kinney. We know that teen Annie May Parker can be made with the existing Teen buck and a new head. This AMP could be put in a 3 pack with Spinneret (which would be a female body with double jointed elbows and a new head. Tossing in a second MJ head from retro Gwen) The third figure would be Spidey as a "cost saving but added value item" for the pack.
Spinneret:
I literally mentioned her in AMP, but since I want her as a character, I don't want her to not count on the list. The separate spot is for counting purposes only.
Carolyn Trainer: Lady Ock:
I want her in her 90s look, of course. I don't like the Syndicate look. No matter how we slice it she needs close to 100% new tooling.
Shathra:
This one is super easy:
Wasp body with Scream Hands, New Feet, and new head in glossy black.
Doctor Curt Connors:
Reusing the new Mr. Fantastic and Suit body with a new head and new right arm (stump) we have a Curt Connors before becoming Lizard. Tossing in a Classic Lizard head for the existing Lizard BaF is a nice incentive.
Bombastic Bagman:
Another Cost saving Figure who is literally a New Head.
Man-Spider:
He would be the one of the Final 2 Original Proto-Marvel Legends figure to be updated by Hasbro. The other is Battle Damaged Spidey, but let's save him for a box set or something.
Sadly, Hasbro would reuse the inferior six-arm/doppelganger body with new feet, new hands and head.
Black Cat: The Evil That Men Do
ToyBiz screwed up badly... we need a Hasbro Redemption asap. Retro Black Cat body with new forearms, legs, fur collar, and head.
Darkdevil:
I kinda want a way to sneak in the MC-2 universe into Legends, so adding Reilly Tyne would be a nice way to cement the idea of more Earth-982 in ML. He would be mostly a reuse of the Pizza Spidey body with new head and upper torso for the Darkdevil elements.
Honorable mentions:
Goblin 2099:
While the Goblin ended up being a woman, the character's body read as masculine. (Because it was supposed to be Gabriel O'Hara) I'd expect the figure to reflect that.
Venom: The Madness:
You have to admit that it looks badass and it's an iconic version of Venom.
Riot:
We're 2 Symbiotes short of the Life Foundation 4... Basing him on the Movie Venom would be a nice start
Agony:
Again, see Riot for reasons. Only difference is that She's a scream repaint with a new head.
Man-Wolf:
We need an updated Man-Wolf. (And maybe a John Jameson fogure down the line) He's most likely to be a 100% newly tooled character.
Sin-Eater:
He's kinda Kitbashable, which would allow for other characters to be made. For a guy with a Shotgun he seems to have a weird popularity that goes beyond The Death of Jean DeWolff.
Tarantula:
I will keep bringing up this Hasbro Blunder until he gets fixed in a redemption figure.
Alistair Smythe: Ultimate Spider Slayer:
I often try to sneak him in because of the Gameboy game and The Animated series. I would prefer to have him in a 100% newly sculpted body, but if we can get him through creative parts reuse and remain accurate, so be it.
Molten Man:
Classic villain who is literally a new head on a basic body. Here some of the pour lines could help the melting nature of the character.
Namorita:
The New Warriors are Spidey Adjacent in a way. Some of them have appeared in Spider-Man waves, as others have appeared in Avengers waves.
I'll probably make another list for X-Men and another for Avengers, and a final lost for everything else.
