            Ouch, I forgot Rio Blast has already been announced. I removed him from the list. Thanks.

            I guess my list would look something like this.

            Gwildor
            Tung Lashor
            Saurod
            Sssqueeze
            Flying-Fist He-Man
            Terror Claws Skeletor
            Laser Powered He-Man
            Laser Light Skeletor
            ------------------------
            Buzz-Saw Hordak
            ------------------------
            Ninjor
            Dragstor
            Multi-bot
            Blast-Attak
            Rotar
            Twistoid

            To be honest, I'm not terribly concerned about most of the remaining vintage characters. I guess part of it is that aside from Flying Fists He-Man, I didn't have any of the remaining figures as a kid in the 80s. Though nostalgia is by no means the only factor in determining what I'd like to see in the line. For instance, I was excited to get figures like The Faceless One and the 200X based Count Marzo when they came out.

            I just kind of feel that many of these characters, especially those at the bottom, were released late in the line when it seemed that things really "fell off the rails," so to speak. It just felt almost like they were making what conceptually was a very different toyline that just happened to vaguely resemble MOTU.

            Everything above the first dotted line falls under the "it would be nice/okay to get these" category. It would be nice to finish off the Snakemen and movie characters from the original line. I put Gwildor on top because while I don't "love" the character, I don't hate him as much as I once did, and I've kind of warmed up to him over the years. Plus since we already received the Cosmic Key, I'd like to get the character that goes with it. Saurod is just on there to wrap that up as well.

            Tung Lashor and Sssqueeze would be nice again just to finish the Snakemen. As a kid the only Snakemen that I had was King Hsss and Rattlor (and Kobra Kahn, who is a gray area since he wasn't technically conceived as one of the Snakemen). Though I did get all of the 200X figures/stactions.

            After that, the He-Man and Skeletor variants are next. I actually debated putting Flying Fists He-Man higher on the list, since I did have and like that variant as a kid. But we already have a lot of variants of the main two in the line, so I ranked the remaining non-variant characters from the vintage line that I am okay with higher.

            Buzz-Saw Hordak is placed where he is because really, I almost feel that it's an unnecessary release. Unless they can find a clever way to give him the action feature or at least visually represent it properly (which to me would giving him a newly tooled, hollow out Torso... they can still reuse the same arms, legs, head, etc.), I just don't see the point in releasing him since he otherwise looks just like 'standard' Hordak. If it's just a matter of giving him the Buzz Saw accessory, they could just pack that in with another figure.

            But that said, he still ranks higher than the rest because frankly the remaining characters just never "fit in" with MOTU in my opinion, and by comparison I'd rather buy a Hordak that is very similar to the one we already have. I'm subscribed for 2014 and will again for 2015, so I know these will be made regardless, and I'm not 'complaining' about that. I'm just giving my opinion of them, no offense to anyone who likes or loves them.

            And I didn't even bother listing the meteorbs. If I were to include them, they would rank below everything else.
