There's only so many figures they can make in a year, and retailers are going to demand some mainstays in the mix ("core characters" as it were).

In any case, I think we'd see an Apocalypse BAF before Juggernaut. Yes, there are options out there for both, but we haven't seen a ML Apocalypse in nearly 10 years. Saying that a figure is "already done" is kind of moot when it's not been available on the primary market for a decade (Juggy has been available more recently by a few years, not counting the excellent Marvel Select version). Though I suppose they could do a good Marvel Select version instead (in fact I bet that's likely, though maybe more "in addition to" than "instead").

Though with our luck, we'll end up with Colossonaut.
I get what you're saying. they certainly can only make so many characters every year. But when the same characters top various online fan polls annually, for several years, it's pretty clear there's a desire to see these made over someone who ends up way down the list in general. I know they are constrained by molds as well but I would think at some point they have to take into consideration what their fans want to, to some degree. Maybe they are finally listening.
