Top Marvel items that would keep me interested in Legends

 My interest in Marvel Legends has been steadily decreasing. Out of the newer reveals 2 figures only caught my eye... ok Maybe  7 and that's counting the Smythe v. Parker 2 pack. The other 3 are Gambit, Rogue, and Bishop from the X-Men 97 wave... Normally,  I'd  make multiple rants and separating the items in various waves and multipacks by using a single theme, like a Spider-Man rant, and X-Men rant, etc. I'm not too keen on tackling multi-parters... I haven't forgotten the action figure accessory multi-part rant. I'm pacing myself.

Multipacks:
Spidey VHS packs:
Morbius vs Felicia Hardy
Tombstone vs Joe Robertson
Chameleon vs JJJ

Sadly, these would be Pulse exclusive, which means I get raped by shipping.

Etailer exclusive Multipacks:
As the name states these are available online only at Pulse and select online only etailers like Amazon, EE or BBTS.

Power Pack 4 pack: 
I've done this ad nauseum, so I won't repeat myself. Katie needs a new body and Julie could use the old teen buck with new arms.

Spider-girl 3 pack:
-Spider-girl (new double joint elbows and alt MayDay head)
-Darkdevil
-Kaine
(Bonus Old Peter head to use on the pizza spidey body)

Rogue vs Ms. Marvel 2 pack:
Same Ms. Marvel as in the (cap and radioactive man 3 pack) with a new agonizing pain head
Rogue based on her first appearance.

(Pulse exclusive) Blackheart vs Mephisto 2 pack:
Using the canceled Mephisto from the engines of vengeance and a new Blackheart (similar in size and appearance as in Marvel Superheroes). Made then pulse exclusives because that way little Timmy can't get figures of the devil.

(Pulse Exclusive) The Punisher vs The Russian 2 pack:
The first version of the Russian (striped shirt) in order to minimize controversy. They'd be Pulse exclusives in order to reduce controversy.

Single "Deluxe Figures":
Shuma Gorath:
I've mentioned before how he could be done. This can be rereleased in a MSH Purple Redeco.

Smart Hulk:
Basically the 80th anniversary hulk with a new head, torso, and feet with bunny slippers. Skintone should match the 80th anniversary Hulk. Add the guns and an extra head and hands to properly hold the guns.

Deluxe Spider-Man:
Using the renew your vows Spidey body add:
All the available web effects, Peter Parker head, half Pete half Spidey head, Pizza Spidey masked partially pulled up head, pizza slice. All the appropriate hands (fist, thwip, and wallcrawling)
New parts 2 prescuplted web shooting hands with some web fluid being flung out (similar to some Iron Man Repulsor hands not having the wrist hinge in order to have the pluggable repulsor blast) webbed up Camera (same camera as retro Peter Parker) but with sculpted webbing. Hot Dog.

This opens up the door for a deluxe Symbiote Spidey getting the same stuff but with hands shooting the webs from the top like the symbiote suit does and a half pete half Symbiote head covering his face.

It also opens the door for a Deluxe Ben Reilly figure: same as Peter but with the Ben forearms, add the Symbiote Spidey firing fists for the web stingers and normal spidey's for the webs. Remove the camera and snacks for a Spider- Carnage head and hands.

I'm not saying that all these have to be done at once. I'm simply pointing out how the deluxe Spidey can be "repurposed" and "reused".

Venom: The Madness:
Remember the BAF Venom? Adding a new back piece and new Arms, we could recreate Venom when he got doused in chemicals and his Symbiote went out of control.

Characters to use as slot fillers in waves: (standard figure or BAF)
-Doc Samson
-Carrion
-90s Kaine
-Psylocke (using the Danvers Ms. Marvel body with the new double joint elbows)
-"Post Hulk Out" Banner (shirtless and torn pants look)
-Classic Bishop (97 Bishop with classoc long haired head)
-Hydroman (costumed version)
-Sandman (costumed version)
-Kazar
-Shanna
-New X-Men Cyke
-New X-Men Logan
-Classic Banshee
-Trapster
-Lady Ock
-Cable (yellow and blue outfit)
-Classic Comic book based Mandarin
-Hulk Buster Attachment for Mark 13 armor (Modular Hulkbuster Ironman)
-Sentinel model cota94

There would be other items, but I did say the top items I want and I padded out the list for a day or so.
