In regards to the next retro/vintage X-Men wave (if there is one), I'd love to see green-and-yellow suit Banshee, first appearance Storm, classic Avalanche, classic Pyro, red-and-white suit Angel and a Beast re-release with alternate heads (calm, angry, smiling and wearing glasses, whatever) and a removable lab coat. Classic Toad, Black Tom Cassidy, Cyber, 80s suit Rogue, X-Factor suit Beast and Erik the Red would all be cool too. And though it's unlikely, I'd still love to see a re-release of the Jim Lee/Blue Team figures for Rogue and Cyclops. I know we have the bomber jacket re-release coming in December, but I'd love to get the non-jacket version with the X-Factor Cyclops' red optic blast accessory. Why did they release two Scott Summers heads but not include an optic blast accessory for Cyclops?

For the Amazing Bag Man, they could always put him in a three-pack with Mr. Fantastic and Johnny Storm in their blue-and-white Fantastic Four uniforms. That way, we get a new or re-release Mr. Fantastic, a new new Johnny Storm with "Flame On" fiery head and hands, and a "Kick Me" sign on Bag-Man's back, just like in the comics.

My biggest concern right now is with the Spider-Man figures. It seems we're only getting two waves this year, the lackluster Kingpin wave and the recent Molten Man wave. Unless we get surprised with Fall 2019 reveals, I think that's all the Spidey we're getting for the year -- and that really, really stinks.

Since we're getting six figures and a Build-A-Figure character for the Spring 2020 wave, does that mean we're only getting two Spider-Man waves next year too? If so, then we've seen half of it, but not the Build-A-Figure. If they do have only two Spider-Man assortments next year, they'd better release a bunch of updated A-listers to get me interested. White Rabbit and Vulture are cool and all, but the rest of that new wave is just so "meh" to me. And since Doctor Octopus is my favorite villain, the Superior Spider-Man and Octopus status quos he's had over the past five or so years just makes me cringe.

For 2020, I'd prefer to see Hasbro make a new classic red-and-blue uniform Spider-Man, as well as the much-requested "Amazing Friends" suit for Firestar, any Doctor Octopus (Armani suit, resurrected/Steve Skroce suit, classic suit re-release with brighter suit colors, etc.) with his own bendy wire tentacles (which the 2018 figure should've had in the first place), classic or green-and-yellow Sandman, classic Electro, Molten Man, classic Boomerang, the Looter, classic or armored Rhino, classic Shocker, classic Tarantula, the Rose, Jack O'Lantern, Demogoblin, Shriek, classic Kaine, Stunner, any of the Slinger identities, Overdrive, Mr. Negative... the list goes on and on.

And let's not forget the possibilities of alternate head characters in their classic suits they could re-release with new/repainted brighter suit colors, like Mysterio (with Quentin Beck and Daniel Berkhart heads), the Green Goblin (with Norman Osborn, Harry Osborn and Bart Hamilton heads) and the Hobgoblin (with Ned Leeds, Jason Macendale and Roderick Kingsley heads) -- and to give Hobgoblin a bigger, better Goblin glider next time.

I'd also love to see a classic red suit Daredevil re-release, since I missed him the first time, and for a "Marvel Legends" wave for The Fantastic Four, The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man. It's been a few years since they got an assortment of their own and those heroes, their allies and their enemies all need new figures A.S.A.P.
