I've cut back on hasbro legends because among other things they don't don't seem to want to go deeper into the Marvel universe other than the staples listed above. A 70's comic wave for example, would be incredible. But maybe for this Guardians wave we'll finally get the original crew, perhaps Ant-Man will yield Yellowjacket. Maybe X-Men will produce at least half of the Starjammers team.

Well, who knows. Whatever they come up with, they need to tighten up the delivery date 'cause this year/2 year out thing is played out.

Looking at the 20th anniversary rumor, I know pretty much everyone is expecting furry Beast again, myself included, but would be rad if they blindsided us with Hank in one of his suits.

No! Only because I've been working on a custom

That makes a lot of sense. They did a pretty good looking all white Vision recently and I've been assuming we'd get the same figure in classic colors at some point in the not too distant future.

No one's a bigger Vision fan than I am, but thus far they've never done him correctly, and the all-white version was no exception. I do hope they'll do him justice one day. In the meantime, Marvel Select has been the only version that's nailed him, so....

Molecule

A-Bomb (seems like that would be a BaF)

Belle has me at aloss. I'm thinking female. Maybe a Scarlett Witch

Wonder Man

Copperhead (seems like a stretch)

Probably an Iron Man

Cyclops seems logicalbut that's X-Men. I'm thinking a Vision

I always enjoy guessing at the possible characters, it always gives me some hope we will get C & D listers as well as some new villains as well.

Molecule - sure hope it is Molecule Man, I've wanted Owen Reece for decades now. He may be a Fantastic Four Villian, but at this point the Avengers and everyone else has fought him.

Bomb - If this was ten years ago, I would say A-Bomb was it. But Rick hasn't been that character in a long time. I like the thinking that it could be Nitro. One of the two great villains Starlin gave us during his short but amazing run on Captain Marvel.

Belle - well, if this is in fact an X-men wave, I would say Belladonna, Gambits ex-wife. Otherwise, I am scratching my head.

Won - Wonder Man seems like the obvious choice, but I am in the much smaller camp of wanting his first appearance outfit, not the safari jacket one... which is what we will probably get.

Cop - Maybe a character that is or was a policeman/woman. I'll have to think about this one some more. Although they have slowly been feeding us Serpent Society members for a number of years now, so I wouldn't rule Copperhead out completely.

Antonio - Could be a Stark IM suit. But I'm going to go a little further afield and say maybe it's a character from San Antonio, one of The Rangers, Texas Twister perhaps?

Optics - I'm also going out there on this one too. A character that is optically enhanced would be my guess and I'll say Basilisk. Yeah, very obscure, but that's the sort of figs I keep hoping for. We will see.

Looking at the 20th anniversary rumor, I know pretty much everyone is expecting furry Beast again, myself included, but would be rad if they blindsided us with Hank in one of his suits.

looks like we will get another sometime this week.

A full out D-Man would be great. When they did him under the "Mercenaries of Mayhem", I didn't even realize it was him. I just thought it was some soldier character.

It was strange they referred to him as D-Man instead of Marvel's Scourge on the packaging since that was the identity he was wearing.

I hold out no hope for such a thing although it would be great. These guys seem fixated on going over old territory instead of branching out. And the X-Men box was a thrown together, cheap shambles of a set. I would love to think they've spent all the time since that release to actually do Angel's wings correctly, but its doubtful. But yeah, they need a re-do, and hasbro needs to get Marinna and Rachel Phoenix done as well.

That Marvel Monsters box set needs to get done too....by Halloween....

Yes, the Marvel Monsters are overdue!
