Minifigures - general discussion

The question asked here is: "What character do you think will be or would like to see in a future Minifigure Series?" If you are not sure what all has been done then this thread should help. First off, I have noticed whenever Lego designs a male character in one series, they usually create a female counterpart in another, and vice versa. (Caveman / Cave Woman, Spaceman / Intergalactic Girl, Maraca Man / Flamenco Dancer, etcetera.) Judging from this pattern, here are ones that could get a male/female equal. The first name is the official minifigure while the following one is the idea. Tribal Hunter / Tribal Huntress Bandit / Lady Bandito Magician / Magic Helper, Sorceress Ninja / Ninja Princess, Kunoichi Zombie / Living Dead Girl Witch / Warlock Vampire / Vampire Bride Elf / Elven Queen The Monster / Bride of the Monster Gangster / Swingin' Dame Bride / Groom Ocean King / Mermaid, Nereid, Naiad, Sea Nymph, Undine -SERIES 9- Hippie / Flower Child Santa / Mrs. Claus Pirate Captain / Pirate Girl, Buccaneer Lederhosen Guy / Dutch Girl -SERIES 11- Another pattern that I have noticed from time to time are redesigns or recolors. (Robot (light grey)/Evil Robot (black/dark grey), Cheerleader (blue)/Red Cheerleader) Here are some that I believe will make some good ones (or maybe even inevitable). Football Player / Red Football Player Super Wrestler / Pro Wrestler Not official but Lord Business' Evil Lair has a red Luchador type character. Evil Dwarf / Heroic Dwarf Evil Knight / Heroic Knight -SERIES 9- Ninja / Ninja Master, Shinobi Samurai Warrior / Shogun, Ronin Boxer / Blue Boxer Team GB probably has the closest we'll ever see to this. Also, any of the music and space themed characters have a decent chance of getting recolored or slightly redesigned down the road from the looks of a couple of the accessory packs from Shop-at-Home. To finish off, here are a few original ideas that we haven't seen yet but I would like to toss out there. Royal King Orc Lord, Orc Warrior, Orc King ;) Basketball Player Egyptian Guard SWAT, Riot Cop Medusa, Lamia -SERIES 10- Crusader, Templar G-Man Biker Cyborg Train Conductor, Train Engineer Musician -SERIES 11- Bard, Minstrel Mutant Private Eye Miner Ranger, Rogue Superhero, Super Villian Bounty Hunter, Tracker Martian Crook, Thief, Criminal, Brigand Cruiseship Captain, Sea Captain -SERIES 10- Dancer Scholar, Teacher, Tutor, Professor Warrior -SERIES 11- First Mate, Ship Mate Judge, Magistrate -SERIES 9- Wizard, Mage, Sorcerer, Conjuror Harpy Headless Horseman Mr. Hyde -SERIES 9- The Invisble Man Imp, Gremlin, Goblin Dullahan, Headless (Cursed) Knight Grim Reaper Deputy Marshall, Sheriff Cavalry Soldier, Cavalry Captain Alien Bug, Galactic Bug Undercover Cop, Secret Agent Garbage Collector City Worker Beast Warrior Tengu Note: I posted all these ideas before the release of Series 9 meaning a few of them have now been done officially by Lego. I simply crossed those entries out and added which series it was released in while leaving them here for posterior of the topic in the future. Anyway, I can add in anybody else's ideas to the list here at the bottom for easy viewing.
