Yes, blanks in tones that match previously releases figures (especially figures with alternate heads) would be nice.
Alternate body types are going to be a must at some point. The HACKS system is already breaking down for me, since not all parts are compatible anyway (bare upper won't stick to a armored lower torso for example). I even have blanks with varying sizes so they aren't compatible with other blanks. To that end, Conan, Conan, Conan. As far as the licensed properties, I have no use for Bucky or Sam & Max, especially at the increased price tags, but would be willingly to overpay for REH inspired Conan and related characters.

Heat the chest and remove the peg to insert into the abdomen socket, then restore the chest onto the peg and let it cool. It should work fine after that. |

I think Bossfight should always stick to the historical end of the spectrum. The proportions of their Blanks are rather on the scrawny side, to allow for best fit of armor and articulation which is great, but their resistance (up to now anyways) to provide alternate body shapes/sizes makes for a lackluster representation of more otherworldy critters.
For example, the orcs to me just fall flat, since they are simply mid-sized green men. Quote:
I don't mind a bit of flair to the historical themes like they've done in the Greek line, since it could be perceived as dry to be too adherent to historical color schemes or whatnot, but I'd abandon the fantasy and space-line unless they can get their critters/aliens to be more than just colored Blanks.

Personally, even before 12th-13th century knights, what I want most to see from Boss Fight above all right now is a plain, medieval/fantasy shirted torso. They seem to be sort of gradually moving in that direction, with the new male elf unveiled at NJCC having a jerkin, but that’s not quite the same thing (albeit it’s very welcome, all the same). |

It would be nice to have a shorter, more squat orc/dwarf body, certainly.
You might want to check out The Unslain: Personally, even before 12th-13th century knights, what I want most to see from Boss Fight above all right now is a plain, medieval/fantasy shirted torso.

Love the new colored blanks though slightly sad that the yellow is that tone rather than a primary/sunshine yellow. Still fantastic for a lot of superhero builds though not perfect.
I commented in the main thread on the new figures, but elf and demon has me stoked Boss Fight keeps pleasantly surprising me.

I'm very much looking forward to the Elf (although I'm kind of curious as to why he's fully dressed in "normal" fantasy clothes while his female compatriots apparently prefer to run around clad only in leafy skivvies) but I still really want to see a generic sort of shirt or tunic torso option:
That said, I'm also REALLY looking forward to the Knight blank. Can hardly wait to kitbash an all-black suit of armour from that and the Knight Character Builder set. |

Another wish - expressive alternate headsculpts:
Also, I wish that Boss Fight would stop using the human knights as little more than punching bags for all of the other factions in their Facebook/Instagram pics... |
