Eh... wasn't really a fan of their costumes. I guess gambit looked alright.
I think if HT were smart what they would do is use the post-Deadpool hype to market more iconic and popular versions of these characters where possible. So for example I agree that I wasn't a fan of Blade's look in this film, but, if I was HT I would use the hype to market a Blade 1 or Blade 2 [2.0] figure.
Or say Laura and Wolverine from Logan.
 
I think it would be a ridiculous notion for HT to do so, however... they could consider Artisan Edition. A bad idea, but be ready just in case...

I’ll take whatever they give tbh. Need her to go with Wolverine. Gambit depends on the sculpt and the coat being pleather. Rest I can skip to save money
 
I'll definitely get Elektra, but I'm not sure how far along these are... As Elektra's tease is using a photo from the Elektra movie.

I would have certainly hoped so given your username :lol

I don’t imagine these are very far into the process yet. I saw this more was a shot fired to third party companies that were planning on making these. HT did that with Vulture and we still don’t have a Vulture preorder from them but all those third party figures came and went already.

Why do you think that? They've certainly had enough time to work on prototypes since the movie released - it's been 3-1/2 months.

If they were further along they would have had used images from the figures themselves. Just because the movie came out 3 months ago doesn’t mean anything. They could have decided last week this is something they wanted to do. They likely had a line up for the next year or so and these likely were surprise additions to their plans.
 
I wonder how many of these will be canceled. It wouldn't be the first time they;ve teased then bailed. Two years from now Deadpool will be so 2024 and HT will have moved on to some other hot properties.

You're probably right, but I think they might fast-track at least one of these (my guess is Gambit and/or X-23) while people are still excited for them.
