Ooo...I want Yellowjacket too! But not nearly as much as I'd like a 616 Giant Man. I still have that bg ol gap in my Avengers display because all of my other characters are either classic or modern designs, and I refuse to add Ultimate Giant Man to the mix.
Although, I'm holding out hope that they realize a lot of people really like the classic costumes...616 Fury's inclusion in series 10 helps solidfy that for me a bit.

We've got the upcoming Avengers cartoon. So it's always possible.

I think one must be missing. It's 7 packs listed, that seems odd. In fact it is odd. |

Nice list, and getting Deathlock is amazing.
Bullseye, Tigra, Thorbuster Iron Man and Nova are also most welcome!

According to Discogod on Fwoosh.. The Spider-Man that comes with Bullseye is a new sculpt. Scarlet Spider-Man. In his Red Suit with the Blue Sweater. In a jumping/webslinging pose. So it's yet another version of Spidey we need. Glad to hear it's a new one.  |

Bullseye + Scarlet Spider  In my book at least, this could be one of the best two packs ever. |

As per the Toy Fair thread this is confirmed as I have seen it with my own 2 peepers. He looks super cool! The pose was strange though and it was hard to tell if it was a crawling pose, slinging pose, or web shooting pose.
Worth noting the package isn't labelled as Scarlet Spider though, but rather as Ben Reilly Spider-man.

That makes sense. Which do you think will sell better with the kids - SPIDER-MAN in a cool new costume OR some weird guy they've never seen before that as far as they know may not have anything at all to do with Spider-man. Also, with the news of this Scarlet Spider figure - Hasbro seems to be going out of their way to at least do different costume variations on the characters they have to do to death to keep sales up (look at all the different Spider-man, Iron Man, Hulk, and Wolverine costume variations). The Scarlet Spider costume is pretty much the last Spider-man costume left for them to do with one noteworthy exception that I'm thinking (and hoping) they're going to have to do somewhere down the line - Spider-man 2099. I bet you a dollar we have it by this time next year.  |

Spider-man 2099 would rule, doubt we'll get an Amazing Bag Man anytime soon, although that would be cool.
Other SM variations i'd liove to see are the Slingers, but that is perhaps too obscure even for SHS. I can but hope. Spider-Carnage would be nice too. I'd like some more of Spideys main rogues gallery first though.

Yeah, I guess there are still a number of possibilities for spidey that I didn't take into consideration.
Now that I think about it I personally want Doppleganger if at all possible.
Spidey 2099 still seems like a no-brainer though...

I'm personally glad we're getting some Spidey variations that aren't merely costume variants, but totally different characters. Personally, even with a cool costume variant like the Spidey armor and Iron Spider-man, have no use for them because they're still Parker and I only want one verson of each character in my display. Ben Reilly and Scarlet Spider, however, are technically different characters so I have no issue buying them...in fact I'd love to see more of this sort of treatment! This shows Hasbro DOES care to some degree about the collectors/fan having to buy a million different spider-men |

I understand the need to have core figures packed in there, and if we can get more variations which make sens thewn i'm happy. More Iron Men (for the hall of armour) and more Spider-man costumes are fone for me. No more Caps and Wolverines though please!  |
