        Since I am more of a DC fan and not as familiar with the Marvel Universe comic book wise, my Marvel Mego wish list is primarily influenced by what live and animated series that I have watched over the years. I'll start off with all the original Marvel Megos that were made back in the 70's for a 50th Anniversary edition of those figures. But beyond that, here is my wishlist starting with MARVEL ANIMATED CHARACTERS: A classic Prince Namor the SubMariner because he had a cartoon series by GrantRay Lawrence in 1966. I would love to take a pic of the SubMariner with Captain America, the Hulk, Iron Man and Thor. Heck! I would love to make a home video with these figures with those hokey theme songs playing in the background. Another figure on my want list is Spider Woman (Jessica Drew) because I remember watching her Saturday Morning cartoon series by DePatie/Freleng. And from SpiderMan and His Amazing Friends, I would like to get Firestar and Iceman.
        MARVEL MEGO VARIATIONS: starting off with SPIDER MAN: Spidey in a costume with a lighter shade of blue like the animated versions.
        REMOVABLE MASK SPIDER MAN: One of the single most popular Marvel Super Heroes to be seen in costume, but unmasked, especially in the movies. And the mask could be made of cloth.
        SPIDER MAN VILLAINS: Doctor Octopus (I imagine his tentacles would have to be in a separate package or an item to be ordered through the mail.) Also: Electro, the Vulture, The Rhino, Mysterio, Hobgoblin, Scorpion,
        CAPTAIN AMERICA: I would love to get a
        REMOVABLE COWL version of CAPTAIN AMERICA because primarily in the MCU, Steve Rogers has spent lots of time in the costume, but unmasked. Surely Mego could take Batman's removable cowl and resculpt it with the wings on the sides and the A on the forehead. I would definitely pay good money for that version of Cap.
        THE INCREDIBLE HULK: I would like to see an updated version of the Hulk with a bigger height and painted in the color green like that of the 12 inch Hulk figure. That made the 12 inch Hulk more accurate to the comics, the animation, and in live action. The original 8 inch Mego Hulk's green was just not right.
        I also would love to see figures from the Incredible Hulk TV series with Bill Bixby's Dr. David Banner and Lou Ferrigno's version of the Hulk. Speaking of Dr. Banner, if plain clothes version of action figures wouldn't sell as well, then how about a post Hulked out version of Dr, Bruce Banner wearing nothing but the torn pants.
        IRON MAN: Just like Captain America & SpiderMan, I would love to see an unmasked Iron Man with a removable headpiece and the face of Tony Stark. And definitely War Machine,
        FANTASTIC FOUR: In addition to the original four Mego figures, I would never consider a FF action figure collection totally complete without a variant of the Human Torch. In addition to the flamed on version, I would love to get a Mego figure of a flamed off Johnny Storm in the blue FF costume. Also, a more correct height for the Thing. And of course, the most glaring omission from the 70's, the FF's most popular villain, Doctor Doom. And the Mole Man.
        Other than these particular figures, the rest of my Marvel Mego wish list consists of characters made popular by the MCU on the big screen. They are as follows:
        AVENGERS: Black Widow & Hawkeye. Ant Man, the Wasp, Black Panther, Doctor Strange, The Silver Surfer, The Winter Soldier, The Scarlet Witch, Quicksilver, Daredevil, Loki, Ultron, & Thanos. XMEN: Wolverine, Cyclops, The Beast, Jean Grey, Rogue, Jubilee, Gambit, Storm, and Colossus. And Wolverine with a removable cowl. And that's my wish list.

            At Power Con, Brent of Brentz Dollz was selling some cool customs of The Mandarin. I bought one and he looks great alongside the original Mego Avengers. And it was funny bc I told Brent I wanted the figure to go with my Iron-Man and he replied, "I though Mandarin was a Spiderman villain?" Lol.

            But his Mandarin looks 60s/70s comics era, and that's my main want from any new Marvel Megos.

              I would love to get any of the original Marvel Megos. Especially Iron Man, Green Goblin, and Lizard. I never got the last two and my Iron Man was lost long ago.
              However, I would prefer an updated Captain America. They could do a repo for the 50th anniversary line, but I'd prefer the correct costume this time around.

              Heroes:

              Black Panther
              Vision
              Scarlett Witch
              Hawkeye
              Black Widow
              Wolverine
              Storm
              Nightcrawler
              Colossus
              Rogue
              Gambit
              Daredevil
              Silver Surfer
              Sub Mariner

              Villains:

              Doctor Doom
              Mandarin
              Ultron
              Kang
              Super Adaptoid
              Man Ape
              Enchantress
              Rhino
              Hobgoblin
              Vulture
              Electro
              Mysterio
              Kingpin
              Abomination
              Wendigo
              Absorbing Man
              Magneto
              Apocalypse
              Thanos
              Loki

              This announcement is so exciting! I really hope the price point is reasonable and that these are available at multiple retailers/e-tailers.

              If Star Wars is next, it would be the cherry on top of a 70's kid's dreams coming true.

                The short list:

                Nightcrawler
                Mystique
                Black Knight
                Jocasta

                ...and I have an uncontrollable weakness for...The Ringer.

                  If Mego made a Galactus, how tall should he be?

                    He should be made on the 14" body!

                      Sure, why not? I'll make a huge list, too, without throwing a tantrum if they don't make these figures, just because support's important. Also, since this is a wish list, I might let a couple slide that wouldn't work in the anniversary boxes, but not a ton.

                      The stuff they've already made:

                      The Fantastic Four, but especially The Thing
                      Hulk (Yes, I'm 100% up for durable muscle bodies even if a ton of these were made)

                      The stuff they should've made back then, higher priority going by personal preference rather than no-brainer popularity stuff:

                      Dr. Doom (expensive, but v1 managed Thor, Conan and Green Goblin and had some similar parts from the Tin Man)
                      Spider-Woman
                      Nova
                      Moon Knight
                      Dazzler
                      Man-Thing (make it oversized so you can use the GIANT-SIZE MAN-THING logo)
                      Howard the Duck
                      Beverly Switzler
                      Dr. Bong (Hey, I can ask!)
                      Taskmaster (original costume)
                      Boomerang (original costume)
                      Son of Satan (no chance that this happens, asking anyway)
                      Hellcat
                      Nighthawk
                      Capt. Mar-Vell
                      Absorbing Man
                      The Wrecking Crew (all of 'em)
                      Arnim Zola
                      Wasp (Avengers #194 costume)
                      Ms. Marvel (Carol Danvers, either '70s costume, though I wouldn't complain if the right present-day costume happened, either)
                      Wolverine (first costume)
                      Phoenix (game for either variant)
                      Cyclops (even if he's a dick)
                      Beast (furry blue version)
                      MODOK
                      Korvac
                      Lockjaw

                      The stuff they should've made back then, everybody else:

                      Silver Surfer
                      Doctor Strange
                      Ghost Rider (Johnny Blaze)
                      Black Panther
                      Hercules
                      Paladin
                      Daredevil
                      Bullseye
                      Elektra
                      Bucky Barnes (gotta do a Titans/Lion Rock body for this one)
                      Thanos (with Thanos Copter vehicle)
                      Adam Warlock
                      Gamora (Jim Starlin design)
                      Pip the Troll
                      Drax the Destroyer (original)
                      Death-Stalker
                      Ka-Zar
                      Shanna the She-Devil
                      The Cat
                      Tigra
                      Night Nurse
                      Thundra
                      Valkyrie (original version)
                      Dormammu
                      Electro
                      Dr. Octopus

                      Deathlok
                      Ant-Man (first Scott Lang costume, which I think was stylized from however Hank's first costume was)
                      Jocasta
                      Machine Man
                      Nick Fury (S.H.I.E.L.D. circa Steranko)
                      Nightcrawler
                      Colossus
                      Storm
                      Kitty Pryde (in the original X-Men trainee costume or the Shadowcat v1 costume)
                      Iceman
                      Angel
                      I feel like I'm betraying humanity and my Canadian heritage if I don't ask for all of Alpha Flight
                      Tarantula

                      More Recent Characters:

                      Firestar (original/Amazing Friends costume over the New Warriors/Avengers one)

                      Ghost Rider (Danny Ketch)
                      Mockingbird (was in Marvel Team-Up in time to qualify for the above category, but didn't really become prominent until the Hawkeye mini-series)
                      Cloak and Dagger
                      Madcap
                      The Spot
                      Guardians of the Galaxy (Abnett and Lanning-forward versions of everyone; would love to see a Groot done like The Thing and The Human Torch for nostalgia value)
                      Baron Zemo II (just missed the cut on the old stuff)
                      Ms. Marvel (Kamala Khan)
                      Miles Morales (a few costumes to choose from, but the first one from the Saladin Ahmed run would work for me)
                      Squirrel Girl
                      Gwenpool (with Jeff the land shark)

                      Darn, I wish the licensing had ever been lined up for:

                      Red Sonja (classic '70s version)
                      The Micronauts (comics cast)
                      ROM

                        Lots of great suggestions. As a kid I would have loved to have had a Vision, Black Panther, Captain Mar-Vell, and Daredevil. I also agree with some of the previous posts, any of the Invaders would be pretty awesome. Lots of fun to think about. Thank you and great job to all those that made this happen!

                          The "big" ones for me is Daredevil, Dr. Octopus, and Dr. Doom. I know Doc Ock is tough because the metal arms would have to be created.

                          As far as others I'd like to see (just means I'd buy them, not that they'd have any chance of being made). Only including new characters here as I'm sure some reissues are certain.

                          Mysterio
                          Rhino
                          Vulture
                          Kraven
                          Hobgoblin
                          Sandman
                          Kingpin
                          Electro
                          Scarlet Witch
                          Black Panther
                          Wolverine
                          Cyclops
                          Colossus
                          Storm
                          Nightcrawler
                          Marvel Girl
                          Phoenix
                          White Queen
                          Black Widow
                          The Vision
                          Hawkeye
                          Tigra
                          Iron Man (Centurion Armor)
                          Wonder Man
                          The Beast
                          Firestar
                          Iceman

                            We all have wishlists, I just hope people don't get so caught up in their lists that they don't appreciate or support what actually gets released. I suspect the first wave will be small (3 or 4 figures) like the first wave of the DC 50th anniversary was and have to most iconic figures from the vintage line in-likely Spidey, and 2-3 of Hulk/Cap/Thor/Iron Man, with more to follow in waves of 3-4 like the DC model adding not previously done to waves as they go along, so it will be some time before we see some of the characters deep on these lists depth charts. I would expect the characters done for the $80 sets done via Diamond who have tooling done for them to be the first "non-classic" characters added (so Daredevil, Deadpool, Wolverine, etc.) before other characters on wishlists simply out of practicality and keeping production costs down while they see how well the line actually sells at retail to determine how deep into the well they go.

                            I've already posted my want list a while back, but I hope to enjoy whatever Marvel releases happen, and I am trying to keep my expectations in check so I can enjoy what is instead of lamenting not getting what my (likely unrealistic) expectations wanted.

                              You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

                                The tooling for those Marvel sets was at Diamonds factory and was likely destroyed years ago.

                                Expectation is the death of discovery.
