Iron Doom / Madame Masque
Gambit / Uncanny Avengers Rogue
Prowler / Jackal

All three villains are new. That definitely changes things and makes me even more excited. Especially since two of them are Spidey related.
Some of my guesses:
Hammerhead
Tombstone
Prowler
Jackal
Boomerang
Silvermane

I agree, Heinous. I've refreshed myself on some of Zach's clues.
Gambit / Uncanny Avengers Rogue are still very likely.
Boomerang is a Spidey villain whose costume hasn't changed, had a recent resurgence, and fought Daredevil (a Defender).
I'd say he's possible.
EDIT: At first I suspected Jackal, then realized he's never had a direct confrontation with Daredevil to my knowledge.

Remember, Zach said two villains in this wave have existing figures. Only one is new.
All three heroes have had mates.
Gambit / Uncanny Avengers Rogue and Superior Octopus seem likely.
If the new villain is a Spidey rogue, I guess Boomerang, Prowler, Tombstone, or Jackal.
If the Iron Man villain is new, then I'd guess Ghost, Madame Masque, or Fin Fang Foom.

It doesn't seem fair for me to complain about the mates themselves as these look accurate to the cartoon designs. That said, I have never been a fan of these animated waves and I would've much preferred a comic-based Wasp and Jackal. These won't really work as substitutes either because they lack the more elaborate detail and shading that is put into regular releases.
Hopefully the cartoon fans enjoy this wave and us comic-oriented collectors get a proper Black/Gold Wasp and Jackal soon enough. Those two have been on my wish list for a while.

Great suggestions! Feel free to offer any more alternatives to my choices. I am always open to switching up my collection in favor of superior versions.
The Classic Iron Man from Wave 25 goes well with the Classic Heroic Cap and Wave 23 War Machine
Infinity Box Set Thanos
Wave 36 Mandarin
The ideal Spider-Man is a difficult choice to make.
My favorite face design is the slip-on mask from Wave 30 Spider-Girl. Hopefully the upcoming TRU wave will bring the best Spidey yet.
Champions Box Set Ghost Rider
The Storm and Cable you mentioned are great. I'd prefer that Colossus to the Wave 47 version if he were more shiny.
-
Classic Heroic Age Thor is nice too.
Favorite Fantastic Four:
Marvel Villains Box Set Doom
Silver Surfer
Dark Magneto Most comic accurate Erik face
Best of Wave Green Goblin
Wave 68 Storm
Wave 47 Colossus
Excalibur Nightcrawler
Days of Future Past Box Set Mystique
Curse of the Mutants Box Set Blade

I thought it would be interesting to discuss the definitive Minimate versions of each character, since there have been so many variations over the years for the staple heroes and villains.
Sorry in advance if this has been discussed before.
I have a few to get started:
Wave 28 Deadpool
Marvel vs Capcom Iron Man
Venom UnleashedClassic Heroic Age Captain America
HAIL IVAN
I am especially curious which Spidey mate is the best as I haven't been able to decide.

True, just wishful thinking.
Maybe Prowler / Boomerang?
They both match a few of the clues.
