Don't know Grotesk or Ravager, which again is a pleasant surprise since they are from just before my heavy reading time, but right in my older brothers reading time.  So I should have come across both of them before now. 

Anyway, I would be a maybe on both, depending on how they looked in figure form.

The Burglar is a surprising oversight in my mind. How can we not have a figure of the man who started Spidey down the path we all know and love?  As Thor-el said, throw him in a two pack with Uncle Ben and I'm sold.

Ravager looks very cool. 

Great Society has a lot of cool looks. Are they an alternate version of the Squadron Supreme? 

 

Not exactly.  Like the Squadron, the Great Society is an analogue of DC’s Justice League, so the source material is the same, but near as I can tell, The Great Society is not otherwise associated with any form of the Squadron.

Really, it could be a simple figure for Hasbro.  A new head sculpt of the Hood body, and a little repaint, and he could be done.  I wouldn’t expect a brand new sculpt for him, but package him with Ben, or for a more general release, in a pack with a premiere Spider-man, and it would be a nice addition to Spidey rogues.

Thanks for keeping this thread going! It really makes me happy. @detectivehoag - you are AWESOME! Your choices are absolutely perfect! And oddly enough - none of them so far are in the shoebox 😉
Really, not even the Joseph Wade Scarlet Spider? 😮 😆

@detectivehoag And considering they just released the "Track Suit Mafia" figure they clearly aren't above a general looking "thug" character.  Hell go that route even.  Make The Burglar, but give him alternate heads/accessories to make him useful for other displays besides Spiderman's origin.

Hey, Hey, Hey. it’s…. well, it’s me, with today’s offerings. 
first up, a trip in the Way Back Machine, to visit 

 

the golden age Sun Girl (Mary Mitchell)

..and since we’re in the golden ages, we can visit The Terror

Don’t worry, he’s one of the good guys.  jumping back in the Way Back Machine, we’ll pause on our return trip, to take a peek at

 

Piranha Jones

Now, everyone hop back into the Way Back Machine, and we’ll return to the present.  Hope you enjoyed your trip.

Golden Age Sun Girl would be a "Yes" from me, but the other two are passes.

I would probably pass on Sun Girl.

The Terror would be a maybe, but I think there are better/updated pics out there to show him off more closely looking like what we would get today.

Piranha Jones!?!?  No idea who this is, but man he works on all kinds of levels for me.  Power Man foe, 70s Blaxploitation aesthetic, and just a zany concept?  Yep sign me up.

Today we have an eclectic mix, so we’ll just get right to it.  First up:

 

Zawadi, the Monster Huntress:

next, we have the villain that crippled Charles Xavier,

Lucifer:

and lastly we have, from the great white north, 

Ranark, the Ravager:

so, it’s the Monster Huntress and the Monsters, I guess.
