It's been two weeks - time for another wish list!

Who are your Top 10 single most wanted characters you'd put in a Thunderbolts wish list?
Any size/format you want (standard/deluxe/maximum/HasLab. Never-been-made before, update to an existing figure - go for it.
All I ask is that it is ONE character per line for #1 thru #10.
Line #11 is for any ONE 2-pack or multi-pack.

It's your list, who do you want?

1) Atlas (Pym HasLab size)

5) Charcoal

11) Multi-pack: Fixer, Beetle, Screaming Mimi, Moonstone, Goliath (large size, but not HasLab size)

There are some modern iterations that are closer to completion than the first classic team. I’d like to see Radioactive Man in his biohazard suit, Penance, Swordsman. Did we ever get an official Agent Venom in red? The Punisher we got in red is on an outdated body. Elektra could also use an update. Red Leader? Then of course I’d want Techno, Atlas.
 
These are the iterations of the team I'm itching to complete:

Classic Thunderbolts

Atlas, Fixer, and Meteorite. Throw Jolt in there too.

Norman Osborn's Thunderbolts

Radioactive Man, Penance, and Swordsman. A more accurate Mac Venom wouldn't hurt.

The Raft / Luke Cage's Thunderbolts

Surprisingly close considering how big this crew is. Centurius and Troll to round them off, though rereleases of the SDCC exclusive figures are necessary at this point.

I'd also happily take more of the Dark Reign/HAMMER version with Headsman, Mister X, etc. But those three are tops.
 
So I know Charcoal is a popular pick and feels important for a Thunderbolts collection, but I'm pretty sure he's off limits. There's an ownership risk with the character because he was fan created and they didn't lock down all the details. The contest was run by Wizard and they didn't do the appropriate legal language to ensure ownership of the Character was Marvel's alone. I remember a discussion...Nicieza discussing why Charcoal got put away ... the fan creator sued for his ownership and so Marvel killed the character and established the rule they wouldn't bring him back as it 'was too much trouble'.
An action figure of the character would never get approved by Marvel, even if Hasbro worked something out with the fan creator.
 
I'm with the folks who think the best bet would be 2 packs of the MoE villain and their Thunderbolts alter ego.

Classic Moonstone and Meteorite (my most wanted)
Fixer and Techno
Screaming Mimi and Songbird.
Jolt and Ogre
Special release (ala Dragon Man) 18 inch Atlas
12 inch Goliath

I wouldnt mind a Plant Man/ Blackheath pack but that would be highly unlikely.

From later iterations I'd also pick up
Penance
Strucker Swordsman
Grizzly
Coachwhip
Persuasion
Fool Killer
Man-Bull
 
For me, the first eight slots could be filled with four 2-packs:

1) Atlas
2) Goliath
3) Meteorite
4) Moonstone (Siege/Classic look)
5) Techno
6) Fixer
7) Screaming Mimi
8) Jolt (original debut costume)

Beyond those, I’d take villains in the last two spots for them to fight:

9) Mad Thinker
10) Crimson Cowl (female)

I really have little desire for any characters beyond these. Original T-bolts. No later incarnations or members.
 
I would like Citizen V on a better body and in PURPLE so I'd accept him re-released in a multi-pack with Meteorite, Fixer, Jolt and Atlas (12" - no need for a HasLab sized figure). With a recreation of the Thunderbolts #1 cover. I would love for Hasbro to just knock this team straight out (after... is it seven or eight years at this point?).

I don't need the villainous alter-egos for my shelves, though the regular Moonstone gets my highest vote.

I always thought a Forge head could be a good Fixer custom starting point, but from these photos I'm thinking maybe Corsair would be better? And the body?
