I still wonder if they'll try to give it the purple glowing effects shown in the trailer... I kinda doubt it.
They mention “figures” in their post. Awesome.

The purple is everything, imho. Regardless of whatever justification the movie offers for it, at the very least, it's a nice visual proxy for the channeling of T'challa's ancestral abilities from the Necropolis.

That would be awesome, but I honestly won't be upset if it doesn't because I have no idea how they can make it work. My guess is much of the effect even in the film is CG. But hey, more power to them if they come up with a way. As for me, I just want a classic representation of the character with an unmasked option and more Black Panther themed accessories. I passed on the Civil War version betting on a more improved and robust version with his solo movie; so I can't wait to see what they put out. Glad to see the figure being teased.
Neat as it would be to see others, I predict the plural figureS just means the updated Panther suit, plus Killmonger’s gold recolor of the Civil War one. The all-star line-up wording is referring to IW, not Panther, so it would be surprising if they went much deeper than 1 or 2.

I am not really a fan of the look for the new suit… especially the helmet.
Think I will be sticking with the Civil War Black Panther.
Yeah, I'm gonna wait and see. I'd rather watch the movie first - like one thing, IMO the original BP - like other HTs w. tight clothes - IMO needed some kind of joint smoothing. A slim under-suit or whatever.
But IMO with added OSK sculpt CW Panther is pretty awesome. I like the CW look and he's held up great - no rips or degrading material so far.
The new suit is even closer to the body. No armoring to break it up. I'm wary that HT will get cheap about it w. really thin fabric. And for me, no Dora Milaje to go with would be a problem. Even if they include a sculpt - they "made me" buy one already $$$$$ (which is a pretty stellar sculpt). And I'd like to see some more clawed hands this time.
Maybe they can make the base with purple led shooting straight up at the figure, if the leds are strong enough BP will get a purple underglow from the base lights.
I hope they'll eventually do Killmonger, and with a Michael B. Jordan headsculpt.
