starting to feel that way huh?

[Duncan Young]

I didn't think we'd get killer moth so I'm not yet sure who is off limits now

[benderisgreat]

I'm going to state the obvious: more x-men and F4. Marvel isn't interested in promoting these characters anymore.

[Marvelous Spidey]

I don't think it's fair to say that Marvel isn't interested in promoting F4 and X-Men when Deadpool gets a lot of attention, Secret Wars was largely a F4 story, there are at least 5 books in their lineup that feature X-Men and they have the Apocalypse War event going on. Obviously they're going to promote characters they make more money off MORE but they haven't just abandoned the characters like everyone seems to suggest. I imagine we will see X-Men characters in LEGO form again, but we will probably never see a them as prevalently as a lot of people would like.

Reed Richards

Susan Storm

Johnny Storm

The Thing

Daisy Johnson/Quake

Fitz

Simmons

Mack

Lincoln Campbell

Lance Hunter

Lash

Grant Ward/Hive

As much as I like the above characters, there's a very slim chance they'd make them into minifigures.

bone claws wolverine

All they would have to do it make the claw piece in tan or dark tan?!

Hugo Strange

Any Fantastic Four character until a good film comes out

(So when Marvel has the rights again)

[ToaDraco]

Marvel: Mephisto, Blackheart, Lilith, Morbius, Death, Daimon Hellstrom, Hive

DC: Swamp Thing, Spectre, Trigon, Etrigan, Constantine

[Venkefedo]

Gwen Stacy

I think we might see a Spider-Gwen minifig in the next few years. Hopefully she'd have masked & unmasked heads (ala Captain Marvel), a hairpiece, and her hood!

Her hood should be the mold used for Wyldstyle (both up and down) for the LEGO Movie

[barneynedward]

I'm sure someday we'll get Squirrel Girl someday.

[Actor Builder]

I'm thinking we may never actually get a Batman Minifigure...

[pittpenguin123]

Another deadpool. At least we got bootlegs

[BaneShake]

I doubt obscurity or goofiness would stop a figure from appearing, so long as it's fun. My guess is on particularly dark themes or less toyetically interesting designs being the factors that would keep one being made. John Constantine seems unlikely, what with his chain-smoking, "normal guy" appearance, and particularly mature stories. Doctor Light, being a psychotic rapist, is also out. Victor Zsasz, being a realistic serial killer. Jessica Jones's Purple Man, obviously. Jonah Hex is probably too violent, sadly. KGBeast, due to his association with the KGB. Snowflame, the greatest cocaine-powered supervillain of all time, clearly wouldn't cut it.

[jamie75]

With Marvel putting X-Men and F4 on the back burner. I would be surprised to see another set with them in it.

Dr. Doom is main F4 villain and was in a Spider-Man set in 2013. Unless Fox gives up the rights to them. We may not see another set along those lines.

With X-Men, we only got 2 sets with them in it, and those were in 2012 and 2014. It's a shame too with alot of characters to be had.

But, I would love a Galactus figure along the lines of Giant-Man, with a Fantasticar and BigFig Thing, Mr. Fantastic with long legs and arms, Human Torch, and Sue Storm. While having those to transparent won't happen, I'd take solid figures of them.

Doctor Light, being a psychotic rapist, is also out.

Is he really? In the Teen Titans show, he's a robber whose plan always fails and is beaten easily. In the Flash show, she's a robber who works for Zoom. Those are probably the versions kids would know. Unless I'm talking about the wrong Doctor Light

Technically the same one. Titans's was the common depiction, but the comic writers wanted to make him more of a threat, so he suddenly became all about rape (not exactly their finest moment in character work). The Flash was a sort of conglomerate character; a (non-rapist) villain like the earlier one, but a female character like the later one (she's a hero in the comics). We could get a hero lady Dr. Light by Lego's presumed policies, but the male villain would probably be too controversial.

[Vindicare]

Me too. I guess backgrounds & characters actions don't play a part in who we get. Never thought we'd see Deadpool, Deathstroke, Red Hood and the like. I was most surprised to see Carnage so far. Nothing like a murdering psychopath.

As for FF & X-Men, fairly surprised they didn't piggyback on Apocalypse coming out & release at least one X-Men set, to our knowledge, in the second half release schedule.

[NXS7]

Guys, just remember that LEGO has made the Joker, and by his source material, he makes Dr Light look like a charity worker

[8BrickMario]

Yeah, but the Joker's been in plenty of child-friendly media which doesn't make him quite as dark. It depends on the depiction, really, not the character.

[Gomek]

I don't think we will ever see Punisher from Marvel, unless they tone down the violence of the character a bit. I would also say that Ghost Rider is very unlikely, especially after the disastrous films with Nicholas Cage. I'm not so sure about DC, but I have a feeling we wouldn't get that Victor Szasz (is that how you spell it?) because of the extreme violence associated with the character.

You realize there is a Ghost Rider set coming out soon right?

[NXS7]

You realize there is a Ghost Rider set coming out soon right?

I don't think he knew all the way back in 2014
