We just had a 13 inch flaming horned demon and a completely naked woman Marvel legends toy. I think the idea of we can't have demonic/occult or characters in revealing outfits figures is pretty much dead. Still a Pryor figure would be welcome.

I mean, yeah, you'd think. But Surtur was done in context to the movie and he was more of a Diety or Demi-God rather than a demon. There seems to be some divide as to what they allow in movies vs. what they allow in toys. Maybe it's just because a lot of the mystical corner of the MU is still tied up at Hulu and they haven't been able to work them in other than the good doctor, but to me at least, the mystical/occult part of the MU has really been stepped over to this point. Sure there's a few Ghost Riders and a book of Vishanti set, and a Doctor Strange wave but that's about it. That's just what I'm reading into it.

Throw my vote in there as well. As an X-Men villain she's a must. The costume will be an issue I suppose, but we can also count on Hasbro "tidy it up", even if they decide to do it through Fan Channel or Etail exclusive. My guess is they would do the Scarlet Witch method in which they would just paint the parts that are supposed to be skin a another tone to simulate a leotard. Whatever, just do it. Maybe throw a few little toady demons in there cuz it'll most likely be $25. Of course, doing a related wave with S'ym as the BAF would be awesome, but I still firmly believe in Disney's ban (on toys, anyway) on demonic and occultic characters for its evil connotations (well isn't that the kettle calling the pot black?), no matter how much ML team tries to deny it.

I really want a Madelyne Pryor Legends figure. I've been using that old early Hasbro Black Queen Jean Grey as the stand-in for her for far too long....

This is the best X-series but I guess all good things must end or something like that.

Peach Momoko's cover art are always amazing. Her interpretation of the characters are mind blowing.

I do agree and done right. But to be honest I also wantN'astirh & S'ym. Maybe BAF (because it would be different and who would not want to some demons for their heroes to fight or a 3-pack, of a Inferno wave with demonic/tattered uniforms X-Men of that lineup

I have no interest in purchasing such a figure unless they do it accurately. I'm still wincing everytime I look at Storm from the Storm/Tbird 2 pack. Just no excuse for what they did to her.

During one of the last live-streams they mentioned they were doing a new female body starting with Shriek. This, along with the re-release of Rogue a while back and now Lady Loki, is a step in the right direction for adding some long overdue diversity to the female figures they're making. I was gratified that they put Tigra in her bikini for her upcoming figure (but for some reason the box art has her in a sports bra top), because accurate costumes go along with accurate figures. Also, there's nothing stopping them from using Pulse to really go all-out with the characters.

Here's to hoping that if they do Goblin Queen, she'll be done correctly!!

Goblin Queens costume drove me wild as an early teen when she debuted in XMen.. plus Marc Silvestres art.. sha-boom..
