Madrox would make a great customized Punisher.

I hate people. A lady I just started working for showed up at my
desk to tell me something. She saw my figures, grabbed my (repainted)
Cap and Yellowjacket, asked "Is this what you do all day?", growled and
then knocked the two of them together a few times as if fighting. Yes,
I like comics and superheroes, but do I look like I'm 6 years old? And
don't touch my shit. I don't like nobody touching my stuff. So just
keep your meat-hooks off. If I catch any of you guys in my stuff, I'll
kill you.
----------------
Ryan -- if we meet up at WonderCon this year, remind me to tell you some of the shit I used to catch from my office during my law enforcement days. For instance. Our office had a bomb threat one day. Afterwards we all had to submit "procedure ideas" for building evacuations, etc. My boss published a "tentative" list for all to read with a note that it was submitted by me (it wasn't): Step One - call The Fantastic Four. Step Two - Get Ant-Man to shrink the suspicious package to minimize the size of the explsion, Step Three - Call Superman to use his X-Ray vision on the package --- and on and on and on.... All I ever mentioned about comics was that Wednesday was new comic day --- I can't even imagine what these guys would have done if I had toys around my desk.

Wow, my work mates are fine with my comic / Star Wars habits. We have the odd joke between us that I'm a little autistic due to the amount of stuff I can remember or that I have a spreadsheet of my Star Wars collection but there is no funny stuff goes on at all. In fact, my secret santa bought me a Darth Vader Christmas bobblehead!
Just have a go at them about whatever sport they worship (Bill) or Sex and the City (Ryan) - sexist but hey, they started the stereotypes!

And the selections so far for the 121-140 expansion:
Ant-Man - superherofigurineforum choice (YEA!!)
Black Heart - fans' choice
Chameleon - fans' choice
Grim Reaper - EM choice
Jocasta - superherofigurineforum choice
Jubilee - fans' choice
Nomad - EM choice
Son of Satan - EM choice
Titania - EM choice
Wasp - EM choice (YEA!!)
X-Man - EM choice
Number 12 will be either Toad, Ares, or Jack of Hearts, depending on the voting on www.superherofigurineforum.com
The other eight choices will be by poll on that website as well. The version of Ant-Man to be made is also up for debate there through the end of the year. Scott Lang is in the lead, though hopefully it'll still be the original Pym costume and the selection only impacts the magazine.

I am tempted to buy Ant-Man (if they use the correct costume), Chameleon,Grim Reaper, Jocasta, Jubilee, Nomad (if it's the Steve Rogers version) and Wasp. Toad or JoH are under consideration.

Blackheart and Jubilee were voted for via the EM blog. X-Man was a personal choice by one of the developers.

Jubilee was one of the Silvestri/Lee characters so it seems logical she has a fan-base.
The other two are way beyond me.
