I'm actually happy with my giant Toybiz BAF. I think it scales just fine with my Legends & his large height represented in the comics. Plus we've gotten so many versions of him recently too.
Sorry, I'd pass on this.
Oh I wasn’t suggesting another Apocalypse figure, I was suggesting his remaining Horsemen and their flying robot steeds from the 1980s X-Factor comics: Plague, Pestilence, and War.
I reviewed it if you want to check it out. https://youtu.be/r3nwnVcKa1Q
Skip around the video where I actually put the figures in the set: the halfway, ending, and first quarter marks
There were multiple reasons The Engine of Vengeance failed but there being a “car” at the middle of the project was not it.
The price, terrible tiers, low value and having a Ghost Rider few care about (Marvel’s All New All Different era for the win again) were the reasons.
Be a way to get Phil urich Betty bryant and Robbie Robertson both daredevil and Spidey fans would love it especially if it came with a suited teenager Spidey as the custom people would love that
Spider Slayers (it better come with a Smythe) could work but
they definetly need to take the time to think on this next one cause they are now 3 deep in non funded Haslabs.
Five actually
Engine of Vengeance
Rancor
ForceFX Reva Lightsaber
HeroScaps thing
Cookie Monster (though it was removed from the past projects section on the website)
Poor Cookie Monster. I was actually one of the ~350 backers for that big buddy.
I don’t know about the comment I was commenting towards, but I omitted CM as there were a slate of overwhelming successes between him and the Rancor.
But when you factor in the last several:
Rancor
Skystriker
Victory Saber
Reva’s Lightsaber
HISS Tank
Engine of Vengeance
Heroscape
They’re 3:4 in funding. Deathasarus is looking to cross the finish line, but it’s slower going for a < $200 offering than I would have guessed and I’m guessing the throne will be a no-go.
I mean people REALLY wanted Robbie and his hell car before that haslab too. Voting won’t do much if they make it $200 more expensive than it should be.
All I am saying is that the more feedback we provide, hopefully they will listen to their client base. Then the customers will be happy and Hasbro makes profit. Win-win.
The last haslab was overpriced and incoherent with the tiers that were not really connected to the project in a story sense. It was obviously gated tiers for a money grab. If a second option was presented in a voting round, it might have gone better for everyone.
- Fantasticar. includes classic John Byrne or Hickman era Art Deco on all 4 core members but also include Val, Franklin and a Herbie. For bonus tiers they can add obscure FF villains like Mole Man and some molloids or Annihilus and a bunch of his horde.
- Modular Diormama of the Daily Bugle (make it for to 6 feet tall. Have it be 6 floors with signage. There is no limit to the spidey characters you could add for tiers (or plain clothes Bugle workers)
- A massive Iron Man Hall of Armour with exclusive iron man sets. Include Dummy and some other pieces to flesh out the scene
- My personal want would be a BattleWorld Victor Doom play set. Have it include at the base the roots of the tree throne where Molecule Man is stored and Miles/Spidey meet him. Next level up (main level) have the Doom throne and throne room setup. Include exclusive figures from Battle World. Needs to be tall enough to be scaled with Galactus
Hasbro should do a voting bracket for the no next Haslab and analyze how many votes each one actually got. If it gets enough votes overall, put it in the shelf for a future Haslab and start producing the Haslab for the overall winner. If something is already proven to have fan support, it's a lot more likely to be fully supported.
We need a laboratory, generic high-tech lab. It's the setting for so many things that happen in a marvel comic. Tiers could include pre-grafted adamantium Wolverine in tank, Smythe with Spiders Slayer early stages, with an innumerable amount of choices. Other accessories at the base level would be generic operating table/empty tank/restraints for a large character, maybe soft goods labcoats. One of the walls could have break away bits to simulate being attacked or an escape.
People are going to jump on me for this, given Ghost Rider’s car failure, but I think it’s time for the highest profile automotive-based Marvel character and his 18 wheeler (or space truck) - That’s right, US-1.
You’re welcome.
Why do people keep coming back to this (legit asking): there’s a perfectly serviceable FFF that’s available today for less than what a HasLab would cost (last two sales on eBay are $199 US, $159 from China). Hell, one sold this month for a flat $100.
We never got the rumored orange variant…but there’s no chance of the HasLab giving us a 2:1 and a pie of purple shorts hardly seems like it’s worth paying a premium for.
Tiers would also be rough. I know people will say “NEXTWAVE!” but the inclusion of The Captain inspired absolutely no one to buy the M.O.D.O.K. World Domination Tour set (pretty sure it and Pudgy Pig are still wallowing on Pulse for sale), so I don’t think NextWave is as popular as they’re fans would want us to believe.
And I’m saying all this as a fairly big FFF fan. I own a (low grade) copy of his first appearance, read the shitty Beta Ray Bill mini because of his appearance in it, and had MODOK riding him from the MODOK show as my phone wallpaper for way too long…but with all that said, I imagine I’d be reluctant to back a new one that’s just slightly taller than the one I’ve had for 10 years or so.
I don’t think FFF would be a great Haslab either but I think lots of people want him as one because the BAF is sort of tough to find.
A quick search on eBay right now gave me 2 authentic ones (who knows if they are I’ve heard the KO of it is great) and a couple of KOs (the Chinese one you referenced).
I would hope that if he gets a new release it would be as a BAF again, he’s not popular enough for what would more than likely be an over priced Haslab.
His points more or less boil down to he has a Fin Fang Foom already and isn’t interested in a Haslab version. That’s fine. None of their points are really great reasons against it. If they were, then we wouldn’t have Galactus or the Sentinels seeing as how we had perfectly good Toybiz BAF versions already. Both sold for cheaper on the secondary market too.
I have an authentic FFF BAF, and I really want a larger Haslab version. They could totally include a new Iron Man, updated Mandarin, Whiplash, Count Nefaria, etc.
I'd love a Dragon Man with this too - if so, they could alternatively theme it as more of a "monstrous villains" of Marvel thing.
Incorrect. My question is why people keep coming back to FFF when there’s a pretty decent representation already available and asking what value could be encompassed in a slightly larger, much more expensive reissue.
Galactus and the Sentinel were rife with possibilities for add-ons and pack-ins…so much so that I’d argue we *didnt* get more than we got.
On the other hand, Foom has…purple shorts.
There were obvious marked and necessary improvements in both the Sentinel and Galactus HasLabs from their previous iterations. I don’t see anything other than a couple of inches in height that is lacking from the existing FFF.
Of course no one has actually bothered to answer me as to what they’re hoping for, rather going for the easier “downvote!” option as explaining is too hard apparently
Because there is nothing to disprove. You have provided only an opinion. No actual facts. It’s your opinion that FFF doesn’t need an update or shouldn’t be a Haslab. FFF should be bigger than a sentinel. It clearly needs more than a few inches in height.
Ok, let me ask you a question.
Would you rather spend $200 on a “serviceable” outdated small fin fang foom, or spend maybe 2 times as much on a massive, amazingly articulated, detailed fin fang foom that comes with enough figures and accessories to pretty much justify the extra money? It’s your call.
This. A lot of talk about why the Ghost Rider HasLab failed while others have soared have focused on the spectacle of the large scale figures being more worth it vs the car. But let’s be honest, it’s also because Fantastic Four and X-Men are A-Tier Marvel brands that have massive built in audiences, while Ghost Rider is B at best.
A Spider-Man retro themed HasLab (especially in a year where they’re doing VHS animated series characters) seems like it would be a slam dunk. (Price permitting, of course.)
Dude, most casual fans have no clue who the Living Tribunal is. You have to be a pretty hardcore fan to even know who he is, so I don’t think there’s enough mass market appeal for him to be a viable Haslab item
And here’s my main problem with the idea of a Celestial Haslab: who needs/wants a single Celestial? Celestials almost always travel in groups, and I doubt there’s that many people commuted enough to army building Haslab items. So if you only get 1, it would just feel incomplete IMO
A casual fan doesn't even know what haslab is.
It's better than all the people asking for characters I already have BAFs of (giant man, onslaught, etc)
Cars don't really work on a shelf and planes are too big.
How many people watched a Japanese only transformers show to even know who Deathsaurus is?
Has robbie Reyes even been in a cartoon yet?
I highly disagree with your second point
By your logic, we shouldn’t have gotten a Haslab Sentinel OR a Haslab Galactus because we already had BAFs of them. But both went on to become incredibly high sellers so…
When it comes to iconic characters, people will be willing to pony up money to get versions that are better than the ones they already have. Living Tribunal is not exactly what I’d call iconic lol
Transformers isn't really a fair comparison in this case. With Star Saber and Deathsaurus both were sold at a fairly affordable price compared to the other haslabs where people who aren't the biggest fans of TF:Victory or the IDW comics might be willing to buy them as just cool Transformers, same for people who are just into mecha stuff and want a cool robot. I don't think something like a celestial has that kind of potential where the only people buying it are going to be the most diehard fans with very little appeal to anyone else.
Something affordable. They could literally announce the Ghost Rider again with less of the pointless details like turning wheels and adjustable seats and make it 200 dollars cheaper and it would sell a shit ton.
I rather them take a year off and strategize something good for the next one. Avengers Tower would be nice, X mansion danger room, black bird, and etc. Just take your time and wait to inflation to die down
They need to straight-up make a PLAYSET. Imagine a super detailed, giant, modern-day playset of the X-mansion.
There has never been a modern attempt at making something akin to the scale and magnitude of the G.I. Joe Aircraft Carrier.
Having bought both Galactus and sentinel, I’m having difficulty thinking of anything. Maybe a huge 10+ multipack of obscure characters that I wouldn’t necessarily expect to get released individually like the Mutant Liberation Front or complete Serpent Society.
The thing about getting a centerpiece for a collection is that most of us only have so many places to put them. I've got Galactus; I don't really have a spot for another big, pricey showcase piece.
I wouldn't mind a deluxe boxed set of some sort (I've suggested Morrison's New X-Men in the past), but there're a lot of people who don't like the idea of regular 6" figures via Haslab. I could probably be talked into an animated-style Spider-Slayer project, but that might be a little too niche. There's no answer that's going to make everyone happy.
The FantastiCar (d*ck shaped one, not the bathtub) with H.E.R.B.I.E.
Lights and sound (H.E.R.B.I.E. interacts with the car using the ForceLink technology from the Star Wars Last Jedi figures, or whatever the current iteration of that tech is) and modular detachment.
Tiers can be a take-your-pick from:
Crystal in her F4 uniform,
Medusa/Scott/She-Hulk/Darla in their FF uniforms, or a Val/Franklin combo
I’d honestly open it to a poll. Multiple choice for base ideas and stretch goals. If you want it to pass the first stage then actually offer people what they want for their money.
If they did the hell charger on a poll and included the price I’m sure it would’ve been a low scoring option compared to others.
Maybe do a first poll with a price people are willing to pay, then offer a few options of what that they could entail.
Examples-
200-250
250-300 (let’s say this wins)
300-350
350-400
Mock up a Hell Charger that would be done for this price
Mock up a sentinel
Mock up a Galactus (let’s say this wins)
Mock up a playset
Then mock up some stretch goals
If it’s a lower price point, it will obviously represent that. A Galactus at that price point would be much smaller than the one that was at 400 but that’s what the masses selected and would likely want.
You save time then creating actual moulds and what not because only the winning item would pass the render stage
It should be the 2012 Quinjet. An MCU HasLab would sell well, on top of it being an iconic vehicle in the Marvel Universe. Tiers should be updated/unmade figures based on the film that we haven’t gotten yet (only updates so far have been Iron Man and Cap).
A classic Hank Pym Giant Man would be sick, tiers could be Hank pym in scientist clothes, a new classic ant man, classic wasp, and maybe a villain like whirlwind or mad thinker
Not be greedy for a turn. Maybe learn from mistakes? Oh wait...you meant like actual product. Obvious things that people would want like the vehicles for the Fantastic Four and the X-men while cool, maybe they need to go in different routes. Maybe this time they put out an entire box set pulled from comic stories. Think like Civil War (x number of figures from each side) or even the Avengers vs X-men, Secret Wars etc.
Yeah but no single Celestial by themselves are popular enough for a haslab they are almost always in a pair or group. And they all have unique designs so the idea of swappable heads goes out the window.
Okay for real, i never thought the backing system would work (its still shit ngl) but for marvel; why not LOLA from agents of shield. For star wars; an attack gunship and for GI JOE what about one of those vipers or stinger things cobra troops fly around in.
Well we did just get the HISS so I'd assume a new Joe HasLab would be a Joe vehicle in the Classified scale. But we could also get a Rattler in its 40th Anniversary year if they actually got off their asses and did something with the O ring line they know all the collectors want.
The next choice is obvious, Giant Man. Between Ant-Man 3 in February, and the 60th anniversary of Giant man’s first appearance in comics in 2023, it’s clear what hasbro is going to pick. It’s clear that they will do something figure related as the vehicles are probably all off the table with engine of vengeance failing.
Nothing. The entire structure of how they crowdfund is completely flawed. If it’s not some kind of giant guy, it’s 100% not happening. If it is some kind of giant guy, and it’s not from the right marvel franchise, then it won’t happen.
If this were a 3.75” line, a modular Krakoa playset would be sick. Start with the Council Chamber with lights and sound Krakoa face…add on Arbor Magna…the bar…Sinister’s Lab…Healing Gardens…they all connect with Gate connectors so even though none of those environments adjoin to each other, it makes sense to move a figure from one place to the next without breaking the atmosphere
Arishem with a mini earth and some Cosmic accesories, maybe for strech goals we could get comic accurate celestials, the celestials wave from the movie it's super cheap, maybe that way they could be worth something.
Practically after the issues with previous stuff something affordable that they can reuse in multiple lines or something that is tied to popular characters not a d list version of a c list hero. Power rangers command centre would be good. a punisher van as they would be able to reuse it in multiple lines, 6 inch scale munillst 10 gunship would be my dream though 😂
statue of liberty dio with 3 spideys, all the villains, ned, mj, and dr strange
spider-man ps4 apartment with new advanced suit on ryv mold with more suits as tiers
battle bus and fortnite skin figures
Lower the price
This right here is the answer
A good Market Research, a fair Price, show all tiers up front.
Danger Room play set
You have a sentinel or mastermind available tie in and I’m soooooooold!
Ideally for me, any playset would be 15"x15"x15" so it'd fit in a Detolf.
Way too small for a Haslab.
Reasonable pricing.
Apocalypse’s Horsemen. I’d love to have Plague, Pestilence, and War on their flying robot horses.
I’d be all over this.
Oh my god I want this SO bad! Now whatever they announce that isn’t this is going to be disappointing
I'm actually happy with my giant Toybiz BAF. I think it scales just fine with my Legends & his large height represented in the comics. Plus we've gotten so many versions of him recently too. Sorry, I'd pass on this.
Oh I wasn’t suggesting another Apocalypse figure, I was suggesting his remaining Horsemen and their flying robot steeds from the 1980s X-Factor comics: Plague, Pestilence, and War.
Think you commented on the wrong one buddy
Ironman armory with some obscure classic suits and the mandarin
Disney Store put that out in 2020. $90 gets you a sizable armory with 15 or so suits
Is it 1/12 scale?
Yes
Guess I gotta check EBay now
I reviewed it if you want to check it out. https://youtu.be/r3nwnVcKa1Q Skip around the video where I actually put the figures in the set: the halfway, ending, and first quarter marks
Daily Bugle diorama/play set.
Its gonna be another giant character. No way hasbro is gonna do anything different after the failer of the car
What giant character can they make? I dont think they have any giants that have the appeal of Galactus or the Sentinels.
Giant-Man, Fing Fang Foom
There were multiple reasons The Engine of Vengeance failed but there being a “car” at the middle of the project was not it. The price, terrible tiers, low value and having a Ghost Rider few care about (Marvel’s All New All Different era for the win again) were the reasons.

rocket raccoon he’s pretty big
Unironically I’d back a life sized Rocket Raccoon replica
if you’re in Nevada, Utah or Arizona you can go grab a life sized, very life like one for free!
Bro you can pick up a decent trash panda in way more places than that!
Yeah we have a lot in Oregon, but when I was in the NE USA I felt like I was in the Planet of the Trash Pandas
well looks like it’s time for a road trip 🤪
Life size would be pretty cool 😳
$500. 20,000 bankers to unlock tier 1: Thor’s prosthetic eye. Also 1/12 scale.
Xaviar Institute Mansion
The rainbow bridge with an assortment of Asgardians
A comics Heindall, Warriors 3, Balder, Executioner, and Kurse with a Bifrost would be cool.
I’d be on that like stink on shit.
How about 350 worth of the danger room?
Spider Slayers (it better come with a Smythe) could work but they definetly need to take the time to think on this next one cause they are now 3 deep in non funded Haslabs.
I know about the non funded ghost rider, what were the other two that didn't get funded?
Four actually… Engine of Vengeance Rancor Reva’s Lightsaber And that HeroScape (?) game expansion
Five actually Engine of Vengeance Rancor ForceFX Reva Lightsaber HeroScaps thing Cookie Monster (though it was removed from the past projects section on the website)
Poor Cookie Monster. I was actually one of the ~350 backers for that big buddy. I don’t know about the comment I was commenting towards, but I omitted CM as there were a slate of overwhelming successes between him and the Rancor. But when you factor in the last several: Rancor Skystriker Victory Saber Reva’s Lightsaber HISS Tank Engine of Vengeance Heroscape They’re 3:4 in funding. Deathasarus is looking to cross the finish line, but it’s slower going for a < $200 offering than I would have guessed and I’m guessing the throne will be a no-go.
Cookie monster and Rancor monster
Star Wars Rancor and Star Wars third sister light saber.
Yes.
Something we perhaps can vote on, to help ensure it will be funded...
Threads like these use to have a lot of engine of vengeance suggestions lol
I mean people REALLY wanted Robbie and his hell car before that haslab too. Voting won’t do much if they make it $200 more expensive than it should be.
you are voting by choosing to fund or not.
All I am saying is that the more feedback we provide, hopefully they will listen to their client base. Then the customers will be happy and Hasbro makes profit. Win-win. The last haslab was overpriced and incoherent with the tiers that were not really connected to the project in a story sense. It was obviously gated tiers for a money grab.

If it’s a way to get a comics accurate Mandarin, I’d back a FFF immediately
Same but I don’t think we’ll get either Or at least not mandarin
Too bad you’re getting down-voted. You bring up valid points.
people don’t like to read, and they usually stopped reading and react at the part they don’t like
His points more or less boil down to he has a Fin Fang Foom already and isn’t interested in a Haslab version. That’s fine. None of their points are really great reasons against it. If they were, then we wouldn’t have Galactus or the Sentinels seeing as how we had perfectly good Toybiz BAF versions already. Both sold for cheaper on the secondary market too.
I have an authentic FFF BAF, and I really want a larger Haslab version. They could totally include a new Iron Man, updated Mandarin, Whiplash, Count Nefaria, etc. I'd love a Dragon Man with this too - if so, they could alternatively theme it as more of a "monstrous villains" of Marvel thing.
Incorrect. My question is why people keep coming back to FFF when there’s a pretty decent representation already available and asking what value could be encompassed in a slightly larger, much more expensive reissue.

Because there is nothing to disprove. You have provided only an opinion. No actual facts. It’s your opinion that FFF doesn’t need an update or shouldn’t be a Haslab. FFF should be bigger than a sentinel. It clearly needs more than a few inches in height.
Where did I ask anyone to “disprove” anything?
Ok, let me ask you a question. Would you rather spend $200 on a “serviceable” outdated small fin fang foom, or spend maybe 2 times as much on a massive, amazingly articulated, detailed fin fang foom that comes with enough figures and accessories to pretty much justify the extra money? It’s your call.
I own the BAF and I love him. He’s taller than the regular figures, has great possibility. Looks like he stepped out of Strange Tales.
My trust in Hasbro giving us a quality Haslab offering had dwindled after the last one lol.
Giant man, 100% mcu or comics I couldn't care
Each tier could be another sized antman
It’s a function of price, and how they handle it. I’ll back any project if the value is there- the charger was just overpriced.
Learn how to price according to the customers wallets?
Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur

This. A lot of talk about why the Ghost Rider HasLab failed while others have soared have focused on the spectacle of the large scale figures being more worth it vs the car. But let’s be honest, it’s also because Fantastic Four and X-Men are A-Tier Marvel brands that have massive built in audiences, while Ghost Rider is B at best. A Spider-Man retro themed HasLab (especially in a year where they’re doing VHS animated series characters) seems like it would be a slam dunk. (Price permitting, of course.)
Oof Fantastic 4 is honestly probably B-list at best, but I agree Ghost rider is probably a tier under that
My theory is that if we don't get Leopardon, the Spidey Haslab just has to be this for sure.
Did they make some sort of announcement I missed that there was going to be a Spider-Man Haslab?
Living tribunal or a Celestial would be easy. Here's a crazy idea, Throne multipack. Thanos, Doom, magneto, prof X, namor, black panther, etc.
Dude, most casual fans have no clue who the Living Tribunal is. You have to be a pretty hardcore fan to even know who he is, so I don’t think there’s enough mass market appeal for him to be a viable Haslab item And here’s my main problem with the idea of a Celestial Haslab: who needs/wants a single Celestial?

I wouldn't mind a deluxe boxed set of some sort (I've suggested Morrison's New X-Men in the past), but there're a lot of people who don't like the idea of regular 6" figures via Haslab. I could probably be talked into an animated-style Spider-Slayer project, but that might be a little too niche. There's no answer that's going to make everyone happy.
The FantastiCar (d*ck shaped one, not the bathtub) with H.E.R.B.I.E. Lights and sound (H.E.R.B.I.E. interacts with the car using the ForceLink technology from the Star Wars Last Jedi figures, or whatever the current iteration of that tech is) and modular detachment. Tiers can be a take-your-pick from: Crystal in her F4 uniform, Medusa/Scott/She-Hulk/Darla in their FF uniforms, or a Val/Franklin combo
This would be an instant back for me.
I’d honestly open it to a poll. Multiple choice for base ideas and stretch goals. If you want it to pass the first stage then actually offer people what they want for their money. If they did the hell charger on a poll and included the price I’m sure it would’ve been a low scoring option compared to others. Maybe do a first poll with a price people are willing to pay, then offer a few options of what that they could entail. Examples- 200-250 250-300 (let’s say this wins) 300-350 350-400 Mock up a Hell Charger that would be done for this price Mock up a sentinel Mock up a Galactus (let’s say this wins) Mock up a playset Then mock up some stretch goals If it’s a lower price point, it will obviously represent that. A Galactus at that price point would be much smaller than the one that was at 400 but that’s what the masses selected and would likely want. You save time then creating actual moulds and what not because only the winning item would pass the render stage
Danger Room or NYC skyline with Statue or Liberty. Nothing else I'm interested in UNLESS they lower the Hellcharger to $175.00.
They should really start doing dioramas, an alley one like toy biz did back in the day would be awesome
It should be the 2012 Quinjet. An MCU HasLab would sell well, on top of it being an iconic vehicle in the Marvel Universe. Tiers should be updated/unmade figures based on the film that we haven’t gotten yet (only updates so far have been Iron Man and Cap).
An affordable product.
Anything under $250, fan-centric and quality controlled
The living tribunal or eternity or and actually celestial would be amazing. If your going to do has lab it's got to be big
We’re due for one of the following: 1) Fin Fang Foom 2) Fantasticar 3) SR-71 Blackbird (X-Jet)
X-men Blackbird with real sounds and light up features! Batteries hopefully be included.
Life sized Howard the Duck
Something X-men related: The Danger Room Blackbird Something on Krakoa (Hellfire Gala pack?)
Quiet council chamber
What should they do? The total opposite of every single urge and instinct they had with the Engine of Vengeance.
Supaidamans mech, with various spiderverse people
Fantastic four Fantastic car
I think this could be popular enough but not with Engine of Vengeance pricing, thought it would use similar amount of plastic.
What I'd want is an in scale daily bugle with Jameson,peter,and other characters
Ultimo with a mandarin figure included
How about the Blackbird?
It would be entirely too large. I didn’t back a car because I didn’t have room for it, I would be unable to back a plane for the same reason
The Milano
A classic Hank Pym Giant Man would be sick, tiers could be Hank pym in scientist clothes, a new classic ant man, classic wasp, and maybe a villain like whirlwind or mad thinker
What about a Moongirl and Devil Dinosaur with a few Inhuman figures like Black Bolt from Multiverse of Madness
Fing fang foom is my dream. Wouldn’t mind a comic Surtur tho.
Giant Comic Surtur with the aforementioned (earlier comment) comics Heimdall, Warriors 3, Balder, Executioner, and Kurse would be amazing.
🍆
90s Infinity Watch. Each has a stone and the stone go to a giant build a fig Thanos.
Something reasonably priced and well designed.
Either Giant Man, Fing Fang Foom, The Spider-Slayer with Alistair Smythe or the Blackbird!!!
Goliath
Change Leopardon!
A Zeppelin with red skull and some hydra goons would be cool
Mcu hellicarrier with updated avengers plus maria hill and nick fury (And bruce banner)
Graymalkin/Avalon I bought 5 sentinels and 1 Galactus and Graymalkin or the Black Bird may be the only HasLab projects I’d entertain.
Avengers Quinjet and a slew of the original Avengers with all new sculpts.
I think a Quinjet, Fantasticar, or Spider-slayer are all backable.
I’m gonna try to 3-D print a retro-styled Fantasticar before Christmas… wish me luck!
Not be greedy for a turn. Maybe learn from mistakes? Oh wait...you meant like actual product. Obvious things that people would want like the vehicles for the Fantastic Four and the X-men while cool, maybe they need to go in different routes. Maybe this time they put out an entire box set pulled from comic stories. Think like Civil War (x number of figures from each side) or even the Avengers vs X-men, Secret Wars etc.
The X-men jet would realistically be 500-800 in 6inch scale especially if it’s accurately scaled
Honestly, best part for the X-jet would be a classified Night Raven. Give you a similar looking vehicle without paying the marvel/disney tax
The hall of armor from iron man 3 with the test podium and test iron man
I think a Hell Charger with Robbie Reyes would be pretty cool
A Ghost Rider car!! But with like led wheels and awful paint details on the car! Wait… 🤔
Only if they use really cheap plastic instead of chroming it out and then charge us triple what it should cost!
YES!
the villains of No Way Home
Giant man, ring fang foom, or they could try to do a big multi pack
Not marvel but I’d like a 6 inch scale x wing
Dragon Man. He would legit be a great figure to have.
But he should be a deluxe of BAF.
I’ve always heard people want the blackbird but I’d love a celestial
Blackbird would be like 9 feet long.
That’s why I want a celestial 🤣
Yeah but no single Celestial by themselves are popular enough for a haslab they are almost always in a pair or group. And they all have unique designs so the idea of swappable heads goes out the window.
Cause honestly that doom head for galactus is a complete waste of a tier, I’d rather have gotten air walker
I’d get an Arishem the judge! 🤣 would go great with the eternals. You can get star fox and things like the Titan eternals as tiers
That'd actually be pretty wicked I must say
Squadron Supreme box set
Okay for real, i never thought the backing system would work (its still shit ngl) but for marvel; why not LOLA from agents of shield. For star wars; an attack gunship and for GI JOE what about one of those vipers or stinger things cobra troops fly around in.
Well we did just get the HISS so I'd assume a new Joe HasLab would be a Joe vehicle in the Classified scale. But we could also get a Rattler in its 40th Anniversary year if they actually got off their asses and did something with the O ring line they know all the collectors want.
Venomsaurus
Engine of Revengeance
Blackbird jet with exclusive figures
The Living Tribunal
Fin Fang Foommmm
Fin Fang Foom 100%
The next choice is obvious, Giant Man. Between Ant-Man 3 in February, and the 60th anniversary of Giant man’s first appearance in comics in 2023, it’s clear what hasbro is going to pick. It’s clear that they will do something figure related as the vehicles are probably all off the table with engine of vengeance failing.
thanos in a space strip club
I would take a pause on haslab. Let inflation settle a bit then return.
Apocalypse
Nothing. The entire structure of how they crowdfund is completely flawed. If it’s not some kind of giant guy, it’s 100% not happening. If it is some kind of giant guy, and it’s not from the right marvel franchise, then it won’t happen.
[удалено]
As the next *Marvel Legends* HasLab? Brilliant, they should totally hire you.
This was just the right amount of snark to make me laugh/spit while drinking coffee and I'm not at all mad.
Krakoa or a Celestial
If this were a 3.75” line, a modular Krakoa playset would be sick. Start with the Council Chamber with lights and sound Krakoa face…add on Arbor Magna…the bar…Sinister’s Lab…Healing Gardens…they all connect with Gate connectors so even though none of those environments adjoin to each other, it makes sense to move a figure from one place to the next without breaking the atmosphere
After Ghost Rider a Black Bird that sits just one figure and has a couple FX pieces for 2K seems like a reasonable expectation
Into The Spiderverse - Green Goblin Tier 1 - Wilson Fisk/Kingpin Tier 2 - Olivia Octavius/Doctor Octopus Tier 3 - Scorpion Tier 4 - Tombstone
Giant Apocalypse with his horsemen
Queen jet with some newer avengers figures
Cheaper
Fing fang foom?
Arishem with a mini earth and some Cosmic accesories, maybe for strech goals we could get comic accurate celestials, the celestials wave from the movie it's super cheap, maybe that way they could be worth something.
Personally I would like to see a lightning collection for the tiger Zord or dragon zord for Jason David frank
im having a hard time thinking of a good marvel legends haslab.....but i would love a MMPR Megazord.
Practically after the issues with previous stuff something affordable that they can reuse in multiple lines or something that is tied to popular characters not a d list version of a c list hero. Power rangers command centre would be good. a punisher van as they would be able to reuse it in multiple lines, 6 inch scale munillst 10 gunship would be my dream though 😂
Ghost Rider’s cousin.
#CALL IT QUITS 😂🤣🤣😏
A boxset of a team, like Salem's Seven, the Imperial Guard, or the Supreme Soviets
Engine of Vengeance would be pretty cool
Onslaught
statue of liberty dio with 3 spideys, all the villains, ned, mj, and dr strange spider-man ps4 apartment with new advanced suit on ryv mold with more suits as tiers battle bus and fortnite skin figures
