Sif.
Namorita.
Comic versions:
Hela
The Wrecking Crew
Loki (He never should have been put on the old Bucky Cap body, it was too bulky for Loki)
Classic 70's Falcon
Blastaar
Every time I see a good custom of it, I feel the need to express my desire for an Agent Venom redo. It would be such a great figure on a better body.
I would have guessed upcoming comic Savage Namor would have an updated torso with butterfly shoulders.
A couple of additional logs for the fire: Beta Ray Thor (does it count as a redraft if they’ve never made a FA version?), an Annihilation Quasar (essentially, his current look) and a properly scaled 616 Abomination. I’d also like an Ultimates Spectrum sans overcoat and different head/hair sculpt in a 3pack with an alternate costume (maybe FA or the Greg Land/Mighty Avengers look) Blue Marvel and their combined construct.

I also really enjoyed the Agent Venom comics and would like that figure updated.
It seems like most of the cast of Secret Avengers could either use a redo (Valkyrie, Moon Knight, Beast, Nova, Agent 13, War Machine, Hawkeye), or have got one recently (Commander Rogers, Black Widow, Antman).
@tsi Yeah, a first appearance Bill should have come immediately following their 80th Anniversary Thor. That said, Bill should be taller than Thor, but I’ll settle for the same buck at this point. I was happy to get any bone thrown my way as a fan when they delivered his modern look on that outdated large body mold, but I need more than that middling effort for a proper FA Beta Ray Thor.
Yamaguchi War Machine, comic based, would be epic. Their Agent Venom looks exactly like he should.
Don't settle for shitty reuse - Beta Ray Bill should be ALL NEW. It's sad what fans are willing to accept with this line, safest, most boring figures possible or close to it.
I’m going to echo all the FA/Classic Beta Ray Bill love being thrown around here. The ToyBiz figure is still one of the very, very, VERY few figures from that era who still lives in my display, and will continue to do so until Hasbro makes an updated version.
If they wanted to revisit the retro card catch-all series, they could really knock off some perfect versions of the big boys:
-Wolverine with the new Animated Series body and comic head
-Spider-Man either on the RYV body or AF one with a head very similar to the PS5 Spider-Man 2 release. Colored to match the original retro release, with a smaller spider logo
-Captain America on the 20th ML Anniversary body and head, darker coloring, shield without peg holes
-Extremis Iron Man with darker reds/different coloring, painted hologram Start Head
-Classic Punisher on any of the more recent pinless bodies with butterfly joints
I know most aren't happy with rereleases of the popular characters, but I guarantee this would sell extremely well.
Also really hoping 2024 sees the release of the rest of Astonishing team, including an appropriately colored Wolverine with a new cowl sculpt.
So - as someone who doesn't care much for re-dos I have to agree that this is a solid line up that would sell well and would be hard to take offense at. The big names have to be recycled, I get that.
I mean Capt America 80th body with bare neck, helmet like mask and rectangular shield is still just sitting there.
Ok I was happy to have them, but most of the Norse sections on my shelves could use a redo.
Odin, Loki, Sif, Valkyrie, Beta Ray Bill, Hela in particular. Not to mention many glaring missing characters that aren’t on topic.
