I'd like (1) classic Strange, (2) blue mask Strange and (3) astro Strange over another guy in scrubs. I really find the Secret Identity worthless for marvel character who are not Spider-Man.
I hear you---and, I'll assume you're saying that because "S.I." figures aren't visually interesting---and, I have to wonder what really sells better---what's the audience here???
It's either a camp closer to your feelings----or a camp that, like myself, wants to revel in the nostalgia of the Mego-era as much as possible---
S.I.s seem so "Megoy" to me---and seeing S.I.s like Blake and Rogers resurrects the child in me that was fascinated with the idea that Kent, Wayne, and Grayson figures were an option for playtime. The question is: Is this specific brand of nostalgia worth certain S.I.s being made? I'd like to think so.
Especially a Tony Stark S.I. Mego---come on!
"No. No no no no no no. You done got me talkin' politics. I didn't wanna'. Like I said y'all, I'm just happy to be alive. I think I'll scoot over here right by this winda', let this beautiful carriage rock me to sleep, and dream about how lucky I am." - Chris Mannix

I can see where you are coming from, but when I was a kid I didn't even know about SI Bruce Wayne or RC Batman. Maybe that's why I don't have the same interest in the new SIs, with the exception of Logan.

Would love to see some focus switch to villains. How about a Green Goblin Norman and Harry combo? Lizard '67 version, Doc Connors, and Modern Lizard? Mysterio vintage and current along with Quentin Beck? Werewolf by Night, vintage and modern, along with Jack Russell?
Sam, have you seen the Dr. Strange art where he's wearing the cloak, but a sort of Nehru jacket with emblem and black trousers/dress shoes? It looks great, too.
WANTED: Dick Grayson SI trousers; gray AJ Mustang horse; vintage RC Batman (Bruce Wayne) head; minty Wolfman tights; mint Black Knight sword; minty Launcelot boots; Lion Rock (pale) Dracula & Mummy heads; Lion Rock Franky squared boots; Wayne Foundation blue furniture; Flash Gordon/Ming (10") unbroken holsters; CHiPs gloved arms; POTA T2 tan body; CTVT/vintage Friar Tuck robes, BBP TZ Burgess Meredith glasses.
After Daredevil I don't know how DST will get 2 more sets out in 2016 (Punisher and Spidey 2099?), but I hope they are shown at SDCC and next 4 sets for 2017 announced.
