General Marvel Legends

Honestly leaving out Gargoyle feels like a hate crime. He's like currently 5th on my want list.

Also Beast needs to be there... the Perez Beast we need for Avengers would do nicely. Hank joined the team well before the 'New Defenders' era.

But both Gargoyle and Beast were members of tje team WAY longer than Yellow Jacket, Luke Cage and Moon Knight....
Yeah, I really want a Gargoyle too. He'd have to be an all-new sculpt which seems highly unlikely, but then again, we have Crystarr and Warbow.
 
To me, the Defenders are Dr. Strange, Hulk, Sub-Mariner, Silver Surfer, Clea, Valkyrie, Hawkeye, Nighthawk, Power Man (Luke Cage), Son of Satan, Yellowjacket, Daredevil, Red Guardian (Tania Belinskaya), Hellcat, Moon Knight, Devil-Slayer and the Wasp. I get all those and I'm happy.

I can't believe I almost forgot the Duck.

I once asked Steve Gerber "Why a Duck?" "Why not?" he casually replied.

Why not indeed.

Yeah, but the Gerber/Buscema era of Defenders was a better book.* It was just brilliant. It had a talking duck and an elf with a gun. Why an elf with a gun? I imagine for the same reason there was a talking duck: Why not? I really wish Steve and Sal had stayed with the title for several more years, but it wasn't meant to be. Still, I'm grateful for what we got.

And yes, I would buy Gargoyle and a Perez style beast. Without a second's hesitation. They are high on my want list too.

*Just my opinion. Please don't send me hate mail even though people will anyway.

Yeah, I really want a Gargoyle too. He'd have to be an all-new sculpt which seems highly unlikely, but then again, we have Crystarr and Warbow.

The hate is radiating at me in waves!

Oh, absolutely. In my mind the classic pre-disassembled Avengers aren't finished yet. I still want Mantis, Swordsman, Two-Gun Kid, Red Wolf, the Whizzer, Rick Jones, Jarvis and others I'm forgetting at the moment. We're getting there, but we still have a little ways to go.
Dr. Druid, Gilgamesh, Stingray, D-Man, Silverclaw, Triathlon, Jack of Hearts, Lionheart, and the full GOTG 3000 team.

I won't be happy that we have the full pre-Disassembled lineup until we get the West Coasters as well: Firebird, Human Torch, Living Lightning.

Some of the figures we have aren't exactly the right looks for their time as Avengers (Justice and Firestar, for example) but this would at least get every character made!
 
Two Defender For A Day BAF Waves would be absolutely epic. Mix and match the Heroes and Villains:

1) Jack of Hearts
2) White Tiger
3) Captain Ultra
4) Stingray
5) Tagak the Leopard Lord
6) Polaris - classic costume
7) Torpedo
BAF Black Goliath

1) Melter
2) Looter
3) Plant-Man
4) Beetle - classic with suction cup fingers
5) Leap-Frog
6) Libra
7) Sagittarius
BAF Porcupine (classic)

Or put Porcupine as a carded figure, remove either Libra or Sagittarius and build a taller Black Goliath between the 2 waves.
Or remove Libra and Sagittarius completely and add in 1970s Hercules and Havok.
