Looks like a pretty solid list to me. I'd probably move Drax up to a regular figure though since I'm not sure he'd be big enough to warrant a BAF. For a variant you could do the modern look. In addition to the ones you have I'd add...
Archangel (he's been in the X-men lines but I'd like a Legends fig. of him)
1602 Thor
Kurse
Thunderstrike
Terrax or Morg
Nimrod
Ronin the Accuser
Quasar (if he hasn't already had one)
AoA Colossus
Holocaust
Can't think of any others at the moment, although I would like to throw Eternity out there as a BAF

Forgot about Kurse and don't know how Nimrod got left off the list. Holocaust was one of my friend's picks but I wasn't sure if he would be worthy (big enough character) to warrant a figure. Although I think he would be a cool looking one. Terrax and Morg give me an idea for another box set. I'll put that in my main post. Wasn't sure if Thunderstrike was corny or not. I don't have an opinion either way. I like the AoA Colossus choice. You could make a whole line or a couple of box sets from AoA.

Fin Fang Foom as a build-a-figure is a FANTASTIC idea! I would love that.
As for the regular figures, two of my favorites, Vision and X-23, have already been done, but I still hold out slim hope for a Domino.
Also, I would really love if Legends would make a Mysterio. That skinny one from the Spider-Man line leaves something to be desired.

Iron Man Arctic Armor
Iron Man Space Armor
Iron Man Undersea Armor
Super Skrull with quick change limbs to show different powers.

Great list, Wolvie...
I especially like the idea of an Alpha Flight boxed set. I'd buy it in a minute.
Adding to the regular list, I'd like to see
• Photon (Monica R. Captain Marvel)
• Tigra
• The Swordsman
• Mantis
• Hyperion
• Doctor Spectrum
• Nighthawk
To the Build-a-Figure list, I'd add...
• Clint Barton GOLIATH II

• TERMINUS (yeah, I know, he's a Galactus rip-off, but he's a GREAT Galactus rip-off)

Boxed sets are always fun to think about. Here are a few more...
• Lady Avengers (with *new*, better-sculpted bods than ToyBiz used):
Tigra, Photon, Moondragon, Mantis, and maybe another Scarlet Witch, so we can all throw away that anorexic monstrosity that ToyBiz produced.
• Captain America's second-tier rivals / enemies: USAgent, the Swordsman, Batroc, and Supreme Hydra
• Squadron Supreme - Hyperion, Doctor Spectrum, Nighthawk (classic style) and Power Princess or (better) Skylark
• The Defenders: Valkyrie, Nighthawk, Namor in classic green
speedos, and Hellcat
• 90s Avengers: D-Man, Justice, Firestar, Triathlon, Silverclaw (aww, c'mon... you know you'd buy the set just to use them for target practice!)

I like the idea of Tigra and Photon. I forgot to add a BAF I would really like, even though he is dead, Bill Foster Giant-man (Goliath, Black Goliath or whatevery name he is using that day). Was never a big Nighthawk fan, always hoped the Hulk would squash him "accidently."

We need Ryche to chime in here - he has some GREAT ideas along these lines
here is some stuff but I think he has more ideas:
My favorite imaginative series would be called "The Aragorn Series" and it would have the Black Knight II Dane Whitman (Variant Black Knight I ~ Master of Evil), Valkyrie, Nova (Richard Rider), Tigra (variant Hellcat), Medieval Iron Man (since their needs to be an Iron Man in every other wave), and The Wrecker...all containing horse pieces that can be used to build Aragorn for either the Black Knight, or Valkyrie to ride!

This is the best idea I've heard in weeks.
Personally, I can't stand the Wrecking Crew (I know which piece of the horse the Wrecker can have.)
But we need a villain or two in the set, and like them or not, those salvage-yard clowns have been at it for decades.
My vote for the villain in this set would be the Swordsman (a villain AND an Avenger in one character)...

...or the Grim Reaper, but I know that some people hold them in the same esteem I reserve for the Wrecker.

The pieces that I would like to see are:
1.) Gladiator (Shi Ar)
2.) Odin, The Warriors Three, a better Beta Ray Bill, Balder & Loki with a build a figure Destroyer (not a cheap Iron Man warmed over look alike:thumbsdow)
3.) The Eternals (Ikaris, Makkari, Thena, Sersi, Zuras, & Forgotten One with a build a Uni Mind or a Celestial)
4.) A better Juggernaut
5.) Galactus and his heralds (Silver Surfer, Gabriel The Air Walker, Fire Lord, Terrax, maybe Stardust and Nova for a build a figure Galactus.)
6.) A better Thanos(new uniform), Ronan, Super Skrull and Nova (Annihilation series).:buttrock:

The boxed set I would like to see is the New Mutants. It'd be a monster, for sure, with nine figures. But it would include:
Cannonball
Sunspot
Mirage
Karma
Wolfsbane
Magma
Magik
Cypher
Warlock
Or, conversely, they could do them as a complete wave, with Warlock as the build-a-figure.

i'll start off by saying i agree with #1, the world needs a good Gladiator. but after that we disagree, first off the Bill in 15 is a great figure, in what possible way could they make it any better? same with Destroyer, granted i don't know too much about it, but i think the variant came out great. as far as Juggy is concerened, i really see no way they can improve on the series 6 one, truly the first great figure the line produced, same goes for the MS Thanos, i really can see no way a ML version could come close to touching how great the select one came out

Saw the Hasbros in the store today and they looked awful. Banshee's face was nearly the same yellow as his hair and costume. Hulk looked like something made in the 70s. Don't know what everyone else thinks, but I would pass on all of them

Let start off by saying, I have not seen any of the Hasbro line as of yet and I can't say for sure whether or not Toy Biz's line was better or worst. With that said I would like to see someone else's take on the the figures already produced by Toy Biz, Thus a new Beta Ray, Thanos, and Juggernaut should be attempted. Maybe a Thanos variant with the Annihilation Series uniform.
As for the Destroyer, let me say this. I've been a fan of The Destroyer for over 30 years and I would rather it be done right or not at all, IMO. I hate Toy Biz's version of The Destroyer because its just a warmed over Iron Man variant. The Destroyer that I know and love is big, mean and nasty and NOT a copy of Iron Man's Thor Buster armor but rather the other way around. To be honest with you I am sick of Iron Man with all the armor variations. The Destroyer should have been the "Build A Figure" instead of Modok IMO.

well we can all agree on being sick of Iron Man, like i said i know nothing about Destroyer, my main reason for wanting him was so i could get a figure that wasn't another Iron Man :p

I hear ya, but don't get me wrong, I appreciate that someone decided to make the Destroyer, who has been long over due, but I just wish it was done right and not copied after Iron Man's Thor Buster armor. :banghead:

The Thor Buster armor was copied after the Destroyer.
Still he should be bigger. He would have made a most excellend BAF!
