I've seen plenty of A-list waves pegwarm without civilian characters. The character selection and adding alternate accessories would help make those "normal" figures sell, though. Like you could have the Lizard, but include the head, left hand and feet of Dr. Curt Connors to give it a two-in-one figure effect. Or you could have a two-pack of the civilian alter-ego (Dr. Bruce Banner, General "Thunderbolt" Ross, Betty Ross-Banner, Rick Jones) with a gamma-powered alter-ego (gray or green Hulk, Red Hulk, Harpy or Red She-Hulk, A-bomb). Or you could do a civilian figure with an A-list enemy, like in Spider-Man's case, you could release a two-pack of Aunt May Parker with Doctor Octopus or Joe "Robbie" Robertson with Tombstone.

Also, adding on based on a suggestion, the Hulk is in serious need of Marvel Legends love, including his civilian characters. The Gargoyle, Ringmaster, Tyrannus, Zzzax, orange-and-black suit Leader with the "Jiffy Pop" giant brain head sculpt, classic Abomination, the Rhino, Nightmare, the Absorbing Man -- take your pick. I hope that Ant-Man, the Hulk, Spider-Man and Thor get some Marvel Legends 60th anniversary figures. A Bruce Banner with first appearance Gray Hulk or a first-appearance Spider-Man with the blue back spider emblem with the Burglar would be very much appreciated and welcome to my Marvel Legends collection.
I respect that you are passionate about this. However, just think about it for just a moment. If relatively known heroes/villains ("A-list waves"), with colorful palettes and interesting looks are peg-warming, what do you expect the plight to be for an unrecognizable line of drab civilian/alter-ego figures? A Hasbro line of Archie characters would have a better chance at moving than many of the characters you've mentioned. That said, want whatever tickles your fancy.

Also, I only agreed with another poster. I'm not sure why you are addressing me and not them.
