Defender Wishlists 2022: The Original Trilogy

[P-Siddy]

After a 10-year hiatus and the return of The Vintage Collection, we're bringing back the Defender Wishlists!   
What are your 20 most wanted figures you'd like to see in The Vintage Collection from The Original Trilogy?

The rules are simple: post your wishlist for the 20 3-3/4" figures or send them to me.  At the end of the month, I’ll tally up the votes and we’ll move on to the next theme.

Most importantly, have fun!
