I'd like a Sandman using the Hydroman body, but retooled so he can have interchangeable regular arms and sand ones. I don't even care if they want to charge $30 for him. Hell, redo Hydroman with interchangeable arms too. Or just do a Hydroman vs Sandman two pack.

Rhino I'm good on unless they want to give him a non-screaming classic head.

For Fantastic Four, I'd definitely be down for Diablo, Puppet Master, Alicia, Rama Tut, Ronan, Annihilus, and Mad Thinker. Sadly, I don't see them doing Puppet Master and Alicia unless it is in a 3 pack with Thing. Maybe they can give Thing a Jack Kirby head. :-)

A blast effect would be the only thing to get me to buy Cyclops again.

That's why I keep saying bendable wire tentacles for the next Doctor Octopus figure. None of the figures I had for Doc Ock with bendy tentacles were overtly loose and were a lot more fun to play with. You could even have the bendy tentacles stand Doc Ock up in mid-air, which the current "static" tentacles cannot do.

I could see them using the Hydro-Man body for Sandman, but he HAS to have normal/human arms and hands included, which the Hydro-Man sadly lacked. I know a lot of people want the green-armored costume for Sandman, but I'd prefer a classic remake first. I wouldn't mind a deluxe Sandman -- but then again, I wouldn't mind a deluxe Hydro-Man either.

For the Rhino, I definitely want a new head sculpt. That angry screaming head they gave the Build-A-Figure still drives me crazy. After the classic version, I'd also love an 80s armored Rhino to go with the previous Beetle, Hydro-Man and Speed Demon figures. We'd need new figures for classic purple-and-blue Boomerang and classic Jack O'Lantern to finish the Sinister Syndicate, but I'd be all for those too.

I agree with all of your Fantastic Four picks, and yes to a Jack Kirby head for the Thing! They could even do a two-pack of Jack Kirby Thing versus Jack Kirby Hulk if they wanted, since both weren't as tall, wide or strong in the '60s as they are now. It'd be a great way to get a "purple trunks" Hulk figure made.

Hasbro making a new, easy-to-find Cyclops is what would make me buy Cyclops again. Of course, having a good head sculpt and not have unnecessary metallic paint like the disappointing vintage X-Factor Cyclops had would help too. They could do the '70s suit, either version of the X-Factor suit, the '90s Jim Lee suit (fingers crossed, as, obviously, that's my favorite), or Astonishing X-Men suit -- but from now on, every Cyclops NEEDS an optic blast accessory. It makes no sense to make a Cyclops figure without it.
