Mastermind or another member of the Imperial Guard I suspect. 

Mastermind in his Hellfire garb would've been great. Although, I honestly might have replaced Corsair with him. If this is truly meant to be based off of the Dark Phoenix issues, Corsair didn't participate in those events. Maybe then give the BAF spot to Moira MacTaggert or Sebastian Shaw. 

Even better, make Lilandra the BAF and pack Shaw in with Cyclops. Give him a shirtless option as well. 
Phoenix / Gladiator, Dark Phoenix / Wyngarde, Cyclops / Shaw, BAF Lilandra

I am very pleased with this series, however. Corsair is a more than welcome addition. I'm just a little too aware of these things :)

As far as I know she’s never been made before in movable plastic so who knows. Minimates have been the first to make characters before.

She might have…. There was a Hasbro Superhero Squad figure of her debuted at a Con, but I’m not sure if she ever got an official release? I ended up finding her loose on eBay.
She’s also had a Heroclix…. But as far as articulated figures go, Minimates would be a first. And I would warmly welcome her (and the rest of the Starjammers) to the collection :)

If they went wit the mix of Animated show nostalgia with Toybiz, it makes sense to have Corsair. Personally I was hoping for a Proteus as when these figures were originally going to happen it would have been around the 40th anniversary of both stories and we did just get a Mastermind with the Brotherhood set. Although side bar a pack in Morph head would have made my day,

you could probably make a passable Hepzibah from Lady Death and Capcom Felica

not that it's the best but with minimal paint to a Squirrel Girl tail, Felicia, and Black Cat bits I did this.

I made all of the Starjammers awhile ago...they are easier than you think. Ch'od is actually really easy, as you just need a Hulk or Abomination figure and a one of the goblins from the Pathfinder series. For Hepzibah there's a skunk tail from one of Peter Pan's Lost Boys. If I remember when I get home I'll snap a pic of them.

Hasbro included an Liliandra head as a pack in with another Marvel Legends figure (Mystique I think?), which was kind of a bizarre choice because there's not really a great body out there to make a custom with it.

They did indeed get here on Wednesday and I’m loving them! A little too much as I went rogue and bought a set at the LCS and have a case coming from Luke…. And figures from eBay…

Phoenix is perfect and I didn’t even want her! https://www.instagram.com/p/CV1ZYECMQnO/?utm_medium=copy_link
 

Lilandra is worth the price of admission:

Corsair is amazing as well! https://www.instagram.com/p/CV3sGWVJLWN/?utm_medium=copy_link
 

Cyclops is better than expect! https://www.instagram.com/p/CV6M0ciNHf8/?utm_medium=copy_link
