    70s Ghost Rider and Spider-Woman.
    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 kind of like the idea pmwasson suggested - release 'em hero+villain, hero+villain, and one more hero+villain pairing, too (six figures per wave - my fantasy, my rules!). Were it up to me I'd break it down like this:

      Wave 1
      Spider-Man, Green Goblin, Captain America, Red Skull, Hulk, Abomination

      Wave 2
      Wolverine, Sabretooth, Iron Man, Mandarin, Thor, Loki

      Wave 3
      X-Men gift pack (Cyclops, Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus) with Magneto and Professor X

      Wave 4 (of course!)
      Fantastic Four gift pack with Dr. Doom and Silver Surfer
      "It's sad that governments are chiefed by the double tongues. There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, and so there is iron in your words of life. No signed paper can hold the iron. It must come from men. The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death. It is good that warriors such as we meet in the struggle of life... or death. It shall be life."

              It would probably cost too much in tooling, but an updated Thing that has the same Kirby head of the vintage, but a real “Thing” rocky body instead of that suit he wears.

                  If Marvel were done the same as RA, I'd want to see a ton of Spidey villians: Mysterio, Kingpin, Rhino, Electro, Sandman, etc, etc....

                      Captain America

                      I didn't realize how crummy Cap's villains are after you get past Red Skull and Zemo.
                      Crummy?! What about Baron Blood? Batroc? And don't forget that awesome floating head...M.O.D.O.K.!!

                        I'd agree with Kingdom on some of these nominees..:

                        Vision and Scarlett Witch
                        Doom
                        Rhino
                        Quicksilver
                        Antman/Goliath/YellowJacket
                        Wasp
                        Swordsman
                        A corrected Captain America

                        AND..: HAWKEYE..!!
                        Peace.. Through Superior Firepower.

                          Exactly. On a list of Marvel villains, those guys wouldn't even make the top 100.
                          Expectation is the death of discovery.

                            Well, according to the official list of top 100 Marvel villains, M.O.D.O.K. is #97, followed by Arnim Zola at #87, and Batroc at #84.

                            So there.

                              Diamond's Marvel license

                              We spoke to Diamond in the past about their Marvel license - it is
                              very specific in format. Hasbro is the only company that can make
                              8 inch cloth costume action figures of Marvel characters - and we
                              have tried several avenues there.

                              What Round 2/Capt. Action is doing is costumes with the figure
                              sold separately. I am interested to see how that plays in the
                              market. While the hardcore fans - like us - will support the line,
                              I don't think they will sell enough units to justify the high cost
                              of the license.

                              Considering that Disney is now Marvel's overlords - things may
                              change in the next few years - and the right opportunity may
                              emerge. Patience is a virtue.
