  • For Marvel Legends Series XIII, ToyBiz planned an all-villain assortment called "Bring on the Bad Guys." As a special gimmick, each figure was planned to come packaged with a special henchman figure, such as a Hand ninja, an A.I.M. soldier, a HYDRA agent, a Brood drone, a Hellfire Club guard and a Skrull warrior. For the Crimson Dynamo figure in the wave, ToyBiz planned to include a Latverian Servo-Guard, and a prototype was even created. Unfortunately, financial concerns led to Crimson Dynamo being cancelled and all of the henchmen characters being dropped from the line, and the wave instead having an Onslaught Build-a-Figure piece being packaged with each villain. While the Skrull and Brood toys were later recycled for the Marvel Select line from Diamond Collectibles, the Servo-Guard toy was never released.
  • A Servo-Guard (though referred to as a Doombot) appears in a Minimates two-pack with the Thing from Marvel Select.
  • A Servo-Guard (once again referred to as a Doombot) is featured as a character in the HeroClix figure game.
