Stranger Things has been massive in poopularity ever since it released, and McFarlane took on the task of making the action figures for the show! We've gotten a decent about of figures from them; however, it mostly boils down to the main four boys, Eleven, Hopper, the demogorgon, and surprisingly Barb. As can be seen, several MAJOR characters are missing from the toyline and while things have been a bit quiet this year I'm hoping that McFarlane's plans for the line will continue with the five characters I'm about to talk about below!

5. Demodog
First up will be the Demodog from season 2 of the show. Back at the start of 2018 McFarlane showed off a two pack of Dustin and Dart that still hasn't seen release, and I'm hoping that it eventually will! The demogorgon figure from season 1 is absolutely beautiful and massive, making it an intimidating presence not only in the Stranger Things display but any display where a gruesome monster is welcome. The demodog would be a welcome addition from its species, giving us also a monster with army building potential.

4. Joyce
Joyce is one of the most integral characters to the show and one of the most beloved. Her fixation on the Christmas lights in season 1 was a hallmark for the show and I think she is very deserving of a figure in the line. She's easily one of the most recognizable characters from the show, and her figure would go well with the Hopper and Will figures we already have.

3. Jonathan
Speaking of the Byers family, we're also missing another major member of the cast in Will's older brother, Jonathan. He's been present for all three seasons, constantly loyal to those around him and helping the heroes to overcome whatever evil presents itself.

2. Nancy
Nancy has gotten her own fair share of adventures in the show, what with being trapped in the Upside down for a short period during season 1, then having her own dedicated arc in season 2 with the goal of uncovering everything the secret government organization stood for. Getting a figure of her out there in her red jacket with the handgun from season 1 would be the perfect look for her, and also demand several other unmade figures to be made as well to pair with her.

1. Steve
I can't find where I saw this, but I swear that on the back of one of the figures' boxes in store I saw that a "coming soon" portion of the box art featured a picture of Steve in his season 2 attire. Not a picture of a figure, just a portrait of Steve, but I haven't been able to find that again. I really hope we're getting a Steve one day in the line, he's a fun character whose relationships have evolved over the course of the show to the point that he is best friends with Dustin and I love that. Give him the spiked bat, the bandana and voluminous hair and I'll never ask anything of McFarlane Stranger Things again.
