Well, they did say they were working on Magneto as well did they not?

I don't think Magneto was specificaly mentioned. It was said they were doing 2 figures from XFC.

 

[moose]

if the can't get fasbender, easiest one to make consider its the same suit , then we might not get him for prometheus either but they never confimed what their range of figures would be, shame considering that you can flex this suit on multiple figures with little variation

I hope not...

 

[Star Puffs]

Honestly and seriously... Putting hopes aside as thinking rationally. How many people are really thinking we will see anything else other than Xavier made.

Um...everyone that watched the film and saw Magento?

How many people were utterly convinced just a few weeks ago that this line would never get ANY figures? Same with Angelica from POTC.

Give Hot toys a little credit. Magneto and Xavier are the main characters, with Magento clearly being more popular with most people.

The only reason we will not get Magneto would be likeness rights and I highly doubt Marvel would have allowed Fassbender to take the role if he refused that.

I will get whatever they'll release from this line including the Wolverine from X3. I'm also hoping they'll do Cyclops and the original Xavier and Magneto as well..

How fantastic would it be to have a miniature version of Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen?!!?

He is THE most obvious choice, to not make him would be beyonf stupid, others may not happen but if they can do that Coldson guy and Noland then a third or fourth from XFC is demanded, it's not as if there isn't classic beloved and cool looking characters to choose from

Don't give them ideas.

if they make him it's a

You people are talking about the company who made figures from the Watchmen, Started with Silk Specter, THEN did Comedian and did not do Rorschach at all.

I was shocked to see Xavier... i honestly thought I would not see anything from this line.That being said Magneto is the clear anchor of this film and the most popular, the fact that they are not leading off with him is worrisome to me that we'll even get him.

His sales are the most obvious income generator, then for those that have him Xavier is a shoe in as a second release. I feel if people don't know Magneto is coming then they night not buy Xavier thus tanking sales of this line and hence, no Magneto and it's Watchmen all over again!

[EVILFACE]

They are making this guy.

 

[RIDDICK]

but this is the only figure besides Erik I'd buy.

 

[Raymond F.]

Even if they make Shaw i might be able to live with making a Magneto out of Shaw's helmet, Xavier's uniform and either the DID or possible Promethus Fassbender.

Just watched the movie again last night! Really great, especially the final sequence with the submarine rising out of the ocean.

Having said that, Magneto's uniform is slightly different. He has a blue collar and blue fabric on either side under the arms.

Other than Xavier and Magneto though the only character that stood out as a great possibility for an action figure was beast.

I also wouldn't mind a Moira figure from the final sequence but I'm sure I'm way in the minority there.

 

[greygoose]

Who's buying Charles regardless of no confirmation of Magneto on the way?
