Re: Which MCU female character you most want Hot Toys to make?
I wish the thread wasn't just MCU so it could include the FOX Marvel characters.
Logan is inevitable, X-23 is probably not happening.
I would love to have a figure of her though.
Laura X-23 - the movie and the figure.
Disney abandoning what could have been the possible sequel irks me.
I get it was gobbled up by a studio wanting to restart with a different tone. Yet is there anything creatively that says they can’t do both? (except maybe a lack of vision on their part.)
They’ve absorbed a film with possibly one of the greatest three gen spanning legacy and denouements for two of the best characters Xavier and Logan in the franchise, while simultaneously setting up their legacy Laura X-23, for potential spin-off and expansion.
They had both the
writer and acclaimed
director of the film on-board for more, not only to do a sequel, but already in the process of developing it. And the
actress they want, all game for more!

‘Logan’: Hugh Jackman on Laura Movie ... – The Hollywood Reporter
The film is continuing to defy expectations. While
Logan is the rare superhero project that doesn’t exist to help set up a shared universe or sequels, a spinoff is brewing (“
We’re just working on a script,” Mangold says of a film that would center on Dafne Keen‘s Laura).
All building and expanding on a universe they inherited which already establishes possible separate time lines, that not only allows for, but continually uses possible futures and timelines as it's narrative playground. In fact that is still the tangential world they are developing.
So by design It allows for different visions going forward, and wouldn’t conflict with anything they wanted to reboot, since by design like Logan it could be a separate future timeline anyway.
Based on the success of Logan, everything they need; the premise, the writer, director, and actress Dafne Keen Fernández all there, and still seem worth pursuing...
Disney walked away, yet If Disney won't do it, maybe Hot Toys at least can imagine the sequel, and make a sequel X-23 Laura based on Dafne's likeness as she looks even more like the character.
Sure I've said it before but I would love to see a 1/4 scale Captain Marvel figure announced/made...I wouldn't buy it as I only collect 1/6 scale, I'd just wanna see the Zurdo reaction to it!!
