Another redo I would absolutely buy if it was on the Vulcan body-Taskmaster. He needs butterfly joints and more accessories like a bow & arrow, a bigger shield like Ultimate Cap got, gun and sword.

I’ve badly been wanting an update of the Face-Off series Punisher.

Wonder if they’ll even be doing anything for his 50th anniversary next year.

I would be surprised if they don't make the new blonde Punisher in the near future. Considering all of the negativity surrounding the classic Punisher logo, I don't see them making a classic Frank Castle Punisher for a while.

REALLY want an updated classic Valkyrie. She's essential to my classic Defender's display.

Also would like to see an updated Warbird. That one is long overdue.

I dig those Alex Ross designs for Carol & Monica...those are really fantastic updates that aren't overly busy, but really capture the essence of both characters.

I'll second that Classic Valkyrie request.

@thegillman As the wait for classic Valkyrie begins to feel interminable (I sold off the 2-pack one long ago, too puny) I've been debating getting a blue wire cape from GPSlot to put on the Hulkbuster wave figure to tide me over. Wouldn't be perfect but it could do for a while.

@h-bird I've thought about doing the same thing. Great minds...! She just doesn't look right without the cape. I'll probably bite the bullet and purchase a cape...and then they'll announce the Classic figure.

Me too, buddy, me too. 1st appearance Punisher is a Marvel relic though and I can still see them making that particular version, regardless of how his present day comics are appeasing to whoever is bringing their life problems into fantasy.

If I could make Hasbro only do one update it would be my boy Alex. He's one of my favorite.

Update him with a full pinless body using the legs with the straps sculpted on from the Training Room 3 packs and fix those damn baby fists too. 

The sculpt is perfect so just give him photo real and the newer effects from the last Havok figure (Bonebreaker wave)

Let's do it at the same time and we can really will the thing into existence! A small price to pay for a way overdue figure.

X-Factor in general / Havok in particular was such a huge want of mine for so long, I'm still somewhat in awe that he actually got made. I wouldn't say no to another with the improvements you named - include a balljoint waist and butterflies while you're at it!

I’m sure it’s been said, but we need a better Nova Prime. I generally don’t ask for redrafts, but it’s time.

Agreed. The original figure was junk. And Annihilation is one of Marvel's best crossover events.

Agreed, Annihilation was a spectacular crossover/event. Loved it. But I loved War of Kings much more, mainly for how much they focused on Gladiator and the Imperial Guard. Plus, Paul Pelletier's art. Lordy, it's pretty. (Not that Andrea DiVito is any slouch either.)

MCU Maria Hill is in dire need of an update.
