    How about DC's Sgt. Rock, Unknown Soldier, Blackhawk, etc.

    I would personally love to see an 8" DC military/adventure line featuring the likes of Sgt. Rock and Easy Co., Unkown Soldier, Haunted Tank, Blackhawk, GI Robot, Enemy Ace, and others. Lots of potential enemies both character-wise and generic. Something like this would also cater to nonMego collectors as I think the Dreams and Visions sets did fairly well overall. I realize there's a snowballs chance in **** of seeing any of these but it's nice to dream.

      I do realize that there are some good sales to be had with the military/GI Joe looking characters. I personally love the Blackhawk uniforms.

        I'd totally be in for a Rock and an Unknown Soldier. Maybe Mlle. Marie.

              The Creature Commandos would have more crossover appeal. I'd just be happy to see more new characters instead of the same 10 or so rehashed over and over.

                ^ True, that. Creature Commandos could have custom appeal, too--I've wanted a Mego Medusa for many years.

                  As a kid, I absolutely loved Sgt. Rock, GI Combat, Blackhawk, and Jonah Hex. I would love to see some of these non-superhero books made into figures.

                      That would be a fantastic wave to me. WarLord would also be cool.

                        I lucked out and got Rock and Easy Company, Unknown Soldier, and Mademoiselle Marie all reduced at Tuesday Morning a few years back, and I love them. Never saw Enemy Ace or Blackhawk. I'd buy 8" versions of Sgt Rock and Blackhawk, no question.

                        BTW, check out the awesome 1/6 Rock custom Aneses made a while back: http://www.onesixthwarriors.com/foru...-sgt-rock.html

                        Man, I'd be all over Warlord or Arak, Son of Thunder.

                          I dont think the 1/6 did very well.....so I dont think mego scale has a chance. But it would be cool.

                            I would buy a Sgt.Rock/Black Hawk 2 pack but I don't know if there is enough remego collectors for FTC to do waves. I also would like
                            Deadman,Spectre. Dr. Fate and Zatanna magic wave but it's the same problem (sales) versus sticking with DC icons that do sell well

                              Warlord would be very cool! And they could use the same basic head as Green Arrow with different paint! Or at least the same head without the mask. Another call for an Oliver Queen figure!

                              Plus the helmet could be very cool for a Hawkman variant!
