I'd prefer Superior Venom if we're going to wishlist for Spidey/Doc Ock mashups...

Assuming they have rights to the whole of Marvel, this would be my wishlist:

Iron Man
Captain America
Thor
Hulk
Ghost Rider
Deadpool
Wolverine
Spiderman

And for the baddies

Dr Doom
Thanos
Kang
Ultron
Loki
Green Goblin
Venom

Stuff like SHIELD/HYDRA/AIM agents would also be cool for some backup on either side. Maybe even Kree/Skrulls/Shi'ar down the line. The possibilities for this one are practically endless.

A Sinister Six Box set would be sweet.

I'd kill for MYSTERIO to make an appearance!

I really hope that there's some level of organisation with the Marvel release. As nice as they are, the Arkham releases have been quite slapdash (Look at all this Arkham City stuff... except now here's Bane and Batman from TDKR... and some more Arkham City, and now some random Arkham Asylum models... and more Arkham City... but now Arkham Origins!). To put it another way, they need to do sets.

1. Avengers (Cap, Iron Man, Thor, Hulk, Widow, Hawkeye, Ant-Man, Wasp).
2. X-Men (Cyclops, Jean Grey, Wolverine, Beast, Colossus, Angel, Ice Man, Shadow Cat, Rogue, Gambit, Nightcrawler, Professor X, Storm).
3. AIM/Hydra packs (generic soldiers).
4. Sinister Six (including Mr. Fishbowl-Head).
5. Brotherhood of Evil Mutants (Magneto, Blob, Toad, Mystique, Sabertooth, Pyro).

... and make it an organised game, rather than a bunch of fancy miniature releases with no solid brand and rules as an afterthought.

Considering how the release of the Batman minis went, I'm afraid we'll see some (awesome) miniatures based on the Marvel Marvel movies and some less interesting ones based on the Fox/Sony Marvel movies, like Electro in a hoodie.

That sounds like a great idea to me!

Yeah. I just have this feeling that the realse will be:

Comics Iron-Man, Wolverine, part of the Fantastic Four and... oh Cap 2's out? Ok, here's MCU Captain America and Widow and Winter Soldier and... sugar rush ended... back to comic book Thor, and Doctor Doom, the rest of the Fantastic Four and... oh! Days of Future Past! Here's movie Wolverine, and Magneto, and Jennifer Lawrence Mystique... and sugar rush over... and... here's comic Mystique and Magneto, and some random AIM guys... and OH! Guardians of the Galaxy just came out...

And so on.

One cannot design a release schedule whilst suffering crippling ADHD.

I would totally buy all the GotG minis though and try to sneak them into my 40k games.

I just hope they make models of two of the next wave Marvel movie characters; the Vision and Doctor Strange. They've always been favorites of mine.

And Beta Ray Bill. But that may be asking too much.

Why is it always Wolverine's blue and yellow costume? Never the Clan Yoshida colors.

Because the Blue and Yellow one is the one most comic fans will recognise immediately. Looking at the Batman range, we'll certainly be getting multiple versions, so I wouldn't panic.

Blue and yellow is fine, although I'd definitely prefer the yellow and brown. Feels more iconic- the B&Y feels more fanboy colored. I don't have any reason to back that up, just how it feels to me.

My top choices: Deadpool, Cyclops, Nightcrawler, Captain America and Hawkeye. After that, I don't feel the need to be greedy.

That Wolverine sculpt looks pretty ace to me...

Agreed.
I'd even go so far as to say that, out of all the Wolverine models I've seen, that he's the best there is.

Also the guys at my Wargames society were stating that they were planning on making an x-Men skirmish game? Is there any actual evidence for that? Or was it just wish listing?

Also also, is it bad that the only model I really want (and therefore want rules for) is legion? A guy who for all intents and purposes looks like a skinny white dude in orange hammer pants, with a huge column of hair?

an Xmen skirmish game is wish listing

a more general 'superheroe's' game looks a reasonable bet

Blue and Yellow is also 'First Appearance' Wolverine - though thankfully they didn't also go the short ears and whiskers route - so if anything, the Yellow and Brown if the more "Fanboy Colored" choice.

Though, as previously mentioned, the way KM works, we'll be getting them all eventually - including white tank top Movie Wolverine, I'm sure!

personally I'm waiting for mr 1996

Would love them to do a doomsday model as my son loves Marvel whilst I prefer DC and we can have a Doomsday Vs Hulk show down!

I'd really want Whirlwind, Ms Marvel, Ultron and the Russian Dynamo.

I predict that you'll eventually be 50% satisfied!

Very very interesting

Well I am looking hard at the Iron Man and Wolverine minis - as they would be cool - although I have Heroclix ones............

Also def want (but less likely to get )

White Queen, Magik.......

OK, if we're going to wishlist, sure - I'll take this version of Magik, please:

If I don't get a Squirrel Girl mini I am going to be severely disappointed.

I'm more concerned that we might not get her arch-rival, Dr. Doom!

Hmm, she's taken on Doom, Thanos, Abomination and most of AIM single handed, going by the comics... I think she might be a little OP to throw into a skirmish game. Maybe if it were a mass battle system

Actually, the whole of the Great Lakes Avengers would make some hilarious minis.

Onto Marvel and still not had Swamp Thing yet :(

Actually...they might all be a bit OP. I mean, a unit that can't die? Another that can let his team go through any terrain (with a possible upgrade to being Death)? Yeah, these guys might just be TOO GOOD to fit in well with all these other 2-bit heroes.

Not to mention a guy that can only be seen head-on, a woman that becomes an immovable object, and the world-record holder for the shortest membership on any team. (ok, maybe not the last one, but it's just stuck me how powerful the GLA could be if they weren't so incompetent.)
