    Do you want Black Adam or Dr Sivana/Mr Mind?

    So facing off against the Big Red Cheese.

    Who do you think is more of an Arch-Foe to the Re-Mego Captain Marvel?

    How do you want to see them portrayed.

    Black Adam: Darker Complexion? Pointy Ears? "Evil" Looking or more the ambiguous character he's been in recent years in JSA and 52?

    Dr Sivana: Teen Titans Body? Munchkin/Our Gang Body? Regular Body? Packaged witha PVC Mr Mind (classic glasses). Green Mumu? White Smock?

    I'm probably in the minority, but I'd rather see a classic Sivana with Mr. Mind accessory.

    Not picky about scale, but I'd like the white-smocked "druggist" version, molded glasses.

      I'd think Black Adam would be the more likely choice...not sure if Mattel would make a figure (Sivana) that is going to require a smaller body unless they have many figures that could make use of that body.
      Think OUTSIDE the Box! For the BEST in Repro & Custom Packaging!

        I've always HATED Captain Marvel...so I'm hoping Mattel doesn't waste time making any of them.

          Tough choice. I think Black Adam might be the easier figure to make given the size of the body, etc. But I think I would prefer Dr. Sivana along with Mr. Mind. That would be a really fun figure to see.

          And with respect to Captain Marvel in general - the character was in the DCUC line and has gotten a lot of play in the comics over the past several years. I would be surprised if Mattel considered him to be a waste of time figure.

                I totally get that. And I wasn't trying to be a jerk. I was just thinking about the character from a marketing perspective. Will this character sell if produced in this scale? Mattel has produced a Shazam figure for the DCUC, Infinite Heroes, and JLU lines. Don't know if there are any other iterations off the top of my head. But I would think Mattel would be able to assess the numbers they made off of these versions and decide whether Shazam warrants a Retro-hero remake. Also, the fact that Shazam hit the original Mego line may cause them to think the fans would want an updated version of this figure. Just some thoughts.

                  Sivana would work on a Titans body. Which could lead to....Titans!!
                  It's not a doll it's an action figure.

                    I'd rather have Sivana/Mr. Mind I think they were bigger then Black Adam in the 70's. I always think of Black Adam being more popular in the Modern Age.

                      Black Adam would be a more logical choice, given body type and a similar suit as Shazam! Plus he'd kick Sivana's behind in a fight.

                        Black Adam w/pointed ears. He looks evil and we need more villains. Although I like the character, Sivana's a possible peg warmer and I don't want any of those messing with the start of the line.

                          One for Captain Marvel and one for CM Jr or Mary to face off against.

                            "Hate" is a strong word, and wasting one's time is relative.

                            Obviously, Mattel should just ignore the whole Marvel mythos, and make Ra's al Ghul instead...

                              I'd like to see them do the whole Marvel family line, but Black Adam is a cool character, especially if they redo Cap into a better looking figure. not interested in a remake of the Mego figure on this one.
