TMNT wave 8 Speculation?

 After the recent dud that was wave 7... we should look into the future and pretend to build Wave 8... we'll use wave7 as a template:
But I will go with 3 sets:
-What I would like to see
-What I'd expect from Super7:
-Murphy's Law wave:

5 Figures: 1 non turtle variant, 1 turtle variant, 3 "new releases".

What I'd like to see:
Pizzaface
Rat King
Super Shredder
Raph the Green Beret 
Irma

This wave was made with gigures I wanted. The odd choice is Raph the Green Beret, because it's an odd variant that I could see myself buying... no reason at all... Irma also might seem like a weak choice, but I NEED Her!!

What I'd expect from Super7:
-Robotic Rocksteady
-Hotspot
-Scumbug
-Raph the Magnificent
-General Traag

My methodology here was: we got Robotic Bebop, so Robotic Rocksteady should be next.
Hotspot was chosen because of obscurity, since he's almost as bad to find as Scratch. Also we have a cat villain, so we need a dog hero.
For Scumbug it was, who looks freaky enough and NECA has already made.
For Raph the Magnificent, I picked a Raph variant randomly... luckily we didn't hit the Egg hatching version..
Traag was out of necessity to justify an overpriced figure.

Murphy's Law Wave:
-Sumo Raphael
-Supermutant Rocksteady
-Shogun Shoate
-Walker
-Robotic Foot Soldier

Here I picked the 3 crappiest figures I could think of, 1 lazy repaint, and a kinda bad Turtle variant. But we'll see in 4-6 months?
I did not pick characters from Non-toy sources, becaise I'm not sure WHICH other sources are available. I believe that Mirage and Archie comics are a source, also the TMNT Magazine... the latter being the source for Guerrilla Gorilla.
