You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...
I made a custom Lou Ferrigno Hulk and a custom Bill Bixby Banner. They're pretty cool (except Banner is 12 inch scale because that is the only size of head sculpt I could find). I still wish there were some sort of official releases, though. And, as the OP said, figures of Frye's Creature, Jack McGee and TV Thor would also be welcomed. It was the best show of its time and is indeed very influential to the same generation of kids who would have been buying/playing with/collecting classic Mego figures.

There aren't any truly obvious holes in the Marvel Megos as they are for DC (like Flash and Green Lantern). Dr. Doom is probably the closest. As for heroes, they made most of the major characters, and a few then-next-level-down ones, like Falcon.
Mego could have easily have made a Hawkeye with the Green Arrow/Robin Hood accessories they had.
I'm down with figures for Iceman and Firestar. Had Mego not been entering their last days, maybe they would have looked at the line and rejuvenated it with characters like that with TV appeal.
The popularity of the X-Men would have probably gotten us figures of Cyclops and Wolverine if nothing else. Maybe a Magneto. Heck, a few years later Secret Wars came out of the gate with two X-characters.
