View Full Version : Would you buy.....
Well we have AIM, and now HYDRA.....so would you buy a 2 pack of the Hellfire Club Goons?? I think these would be awesome...and I would love to see some custom jobs with a "Wolverine attacked variant" from that great issue in the Dark Phoenix run!!
What say you?

I beg to differ....The Hellfire Club/Black Queen saga, with the X-men trying to rescue a mind-controlled Jean Grey and failing.....is Iconic. It just happens to get lost in greater story of the Jean Grey Dark/Phoenix saga
When the Hellfire guards faced off against the X-men, with thier almost "cloned" appearance...I was never sure the X-men would prevail against the (greater numbers of the) Club's private army.
When I think of the Hellfire Club it's The White Queen's evil machinations and the "Faceless" army of Hellfire goons/guards blocking Logan's attempt to free his fallen teamates.
The Hellfire Clubs "Mutant" inner circle may change and Emma Frost is now considered a X-men .... but when I see the Hellfire guards in a story, I know the "Club" is involved.
------
The Hellfire Guards would make a GREAT addition to a X-men display.

Not iconic enough? These guys were part of the one of the greatest runs in all of comics! I would buy a bust of one of these guys in a heartbeat. Nothing beats the Claremont/Cockrum/Bryne Uncanny X-Men run.

Not anymore than Man-ape, AIM, Kurse, Ringmaster, etc. but they got busts. So shall the Hellfire club goon!

what I would have loved to have seen would have been a 3 pack with 1 AIM, 1 Hydra and 1 Hellfire goon. That I would have bought right away, but I don't know that I really need 2 of each.

hell yeah!!!!
I wonder if these guys would be possible this phase?? I would doubt they were on the list...but I would have said the same thing about AIM and HYDRA a few months ago!
