Don't mess with perfection!!

And where are the figures?

Would you want b&w figures? Maybe the only good thing with colorizing the show is that if we do get figures we get them in color. Hasbro does like its repaints so maybe they could release both?

Agree w/ everyone here, just leave it as is. No need to colorize it.

WBN was a bit of a let down for me, still, colorizing it is just dragging it into the drain

Colorizing it also robs the viewer of the Bloodstone being the only thing in color for a really cool effect. And the film changing to color at the end? That's just not a thing now. I especially hope they don't Replace the B and W with color. Keep it an option. I am assuming this is for those people I heard online complaining that they hate black and white and won't even give it a chance. Younger generations that didn't grow up on old horror movies don't get the homage.

Black and White, as a cinematic riff in WBN is as much an artistic decision as something like Raging Bull. Or the styling of the animated Spider-verse or Scott Pilgrim movies. There's a reason for it.Colourizing it is like asking a cover of Stairway to Heaven being played on an accordion.

Wasn't the point of it being in Black and White was to give the feel of a classic monster movie from the 30's, so making it in colour defends the purpose

Agreed here, and it was excellent the way it was in Black & White, it was a great movie, I enjoyed it throughly, that alone would make me watch it again in Color, but I don't think it needed to be colorized it does defeat the purpose really.

But like everyone is saying, where are the figures Hasbro? I've been yelling about a new WBN for years, still waiting, and I really need a re-release of Man-Thing. (unless someone still has some parts for sale...I'm soooo close)

The fact that this one one ofnthe best received, least maligned, inclusions in the MCU and pretty much the most liked in phase 4 should make it a lock to be made. I don't see people loosing interest in a werewolf figure in any event. They definitely didn't have faith in it enough or we would have had a figure with the MK/Hawkeye/SheHulk set. I feel like I'll be watching this every Halloween personally, so chance to right the wrong comes up every year.

well the second Disney + wave released 6 (Zombie Cap, Captain Carter (and her Stealth Variant), Nebula, Dr. Strange Supreme, Spider-man with the cape, T'Challa StarLord + the BAF Watcher + Hydra Stomper + the Amazon Killmonger.

The Third had Infinity Ultron BAF

The fourth wave ( the Khonshu wave) had Howard the Duck (and the Zombie verse Ant-man head), Zombie Iron man, Scarlet Witch, Red Skull

The fifth had Gamora, Goliath And Hydra Stomper 2.0 BAF

So 18 (or 18.5 if you count the Ant-man head).

I don't want to hijack the thread and go all day about what figures got made and which didn't but the What If...? is a series that has multi-episodes and is going on season three. WBN is a special presentation and unless things change. It will be a one-shot only. But here is too hoping for the figures people want.

Educate me since I only collect certain Marvel figures. The figures that were released for What If...? Were these figures ever released before or released as a very limited type run? Also, how many What If...? figures were released?
