Here's my updated list:
1.
General Tagge - Finally given to us in the Death Star Briefing set.
Uncle Owen resculpt. Time to give this man his due.
2.
Colonel Yularen - Done.
Dr. Evazan resculpt. The previous version was terrible (and even worse when retooled with it's awkward bending knees. Either resculpt it Hasbro or don't waste our freakin' time).
3.
CZ-3 - CZ-4 will do just fine for my Tatooine display.
Ponda Baba resculpt. Hasbro, the 2006 version of Momaw Nadon (Hammerhead) was nice with it's improved sculpt and paint, but let's so you do even better with Walrusman by improving his incredibly limited articulation as well.
4. Tonnika Sisters - The cantina is still one of my favourite scenes of all time, so I'd love to see these "essential" background characters.
5. Bom Vimdin - Same as above.
6. Red Leader - Just use the Gold Leader (Dutch Vander) body since they're both quite tall and give him a new head and I'm happy.
7. SA Rebel Trooper - SA. Nothing less.
8.
SA Death Star Gunner - 2006.
Wioslea - more background goodness for the Cantina.
9.
SA Luke Stormtrooper - I guess the Comic Packs will do.
Silver Death Star Droid.
10.
SA Han Stormtrooper - I guess the Comic Packs will do.
Saurin - either one is fine.
-edited to include characters only from ANH.
