Which Lantern Corps would you most like to see done as boxed sets?
Stemming from my other poll. Assuming you do want to see them made into boxed sets, though I will include an option for those that don't, which one would you like most to see made? Pick multiples if you want, and post your preferred *order*. Mine would be:
Red
Orange
Black
Blue

In order;
Orange: So that we can get Larfleeze as a nice big 4-square base with lots of constructs on it floating around him, and a dial that can accurately portray a character who has an entire color all to himself.
Yellow: Even though we've already got lots, there are still so many interesting, creative characters to be made. Bedovian, Kryb, Slushh, Karu Sil, Tekik, Enkafos, and of course a new Mongul that people have been asking for. Bonus points if they leverage their horrorclix property license to allow the Xenomorph (Alien) and Yuatja (Predator) lanterns to be made.
Red: Probably the next most developed after the Sinestro corps, we need more than just Mera and Atrocitus. Dex-starr would ensure that this set gets snapped up, and Bleez and Vice could be interesting too. A Red Lantern Laira could have people buying a second copy of the set so they can repaint her as a Green Lantern.
Black: I'd rather see these characters appear in a collector's set than spread out in regular sets. I didn't pull any of the chases, so I can just ignore this collector's box and let the luckier players build their zombie swarms.
Violet: Miri and a redone Carol Farris would be nice. I wouldn't object to a Sapphire Fatality. Would be kind of short on members though, so they would probably need to include a Zamaron and the Predator to fill out the set a bit.
Blue: Saint Walker, Warth, and the space nun, whatever her name is. Too small of a group, and their dials would be awfully similar. Better to be released in regular sets.
Indigo: I would be surprised if we ever seen any members beyond Indigo-1 and maybe Munk turned into clix. again, better for release in regular sets.
Green: We already had a Green Lantern set, and we get at least one more in every DC set. There are still lots of characters to be made (Salakk!) but we'll see them eventually, sooner or later, and in the meantime we've already got plenty to build our teams with.
I voted Orange because I'd see it being made like the Alien Queen from Horrorclix. We'd have a large base Agent Orange with 6 other orange lantern avatars that would each have different power sets but share a common white power with Larfleeze.
Plus, a box set is the only way I'd imagine us getting ANY orange lantern avatars unless they did one as a generic common in a future set.

Cyborg Superman and Parallax is what we need for the Sinestro Corps.
Definitely need cyborg superman.

I completely agree with this. I just cannot see how he would have just a regular 12 click dial. he HAS to be done on a big base. I remember someone made a dial that was pretty perfect for him in the dreams an desires a while back.
I would love all of them and would probably buy all of them, although Orange may not necessarily be needed. Some of the other corps don't have a lot of identified members, so combining a few (like violet and blue) might be a good idea as well. A collectors set could be a good idea as well rather than have them in boosters since a common complaint is that the dials would be very similar. Those that don't want them wouldn't have to worry about getting them in boosters while those who do could quickly and more easily build their corps.

I could also see him having a special token type power like Spectre and have a set of 6-12 tokens come with him.

I voted blue because it would be a small collector set and we wouldn't need to spend any space in another set for them.
Though what I really want is a collector set of the 7 avatars of the lantern corps (even if most of them aren't very well developed)
I voted all but donkey. You cannot have too many clix. More clix mean more options.

Honestly, most of the characters for each core are rather limited, especially for those colors who are new. So for most of them I don't see a set for just one color as viable. I would rather see a collector's set with one of each, perferable with secondary/tertiary characters (Kilowag, Rage Kitten, Yellow baby stealer, Blue elephant dude, etc). Maybe one primary character (like Larfleze, Indigo-1, or Saint Walker) to tide people over.

Yellow - Need a new Cyborg Superman, Mongul, Slushh, Bedovian, and a score of others.
Red - Definitely need Dex-Starr and Atrocitus, and it would be nice to have a few more so that we can actually build Red Lantern theme teams.
Green - Yes we got a Collector's Set for them already, and yes we get new ones in most sets, but we don't truly get much VARIETY in the GLs included in the sets. We need more of the aliens represented, a new Kilowog, and a new John Stewart.
Violet (actually forgot to vote for this one, darn it!) - We need more of the Star Sapphires in Heroclix, only getting one so far (and her only recently) is criminal.
Black - There are lots of characters here that I'd like to get remakes of (Terra, Hawk, Dove, Ralph) and if a zombie version is the only one I'm getting, I'll take it. Plus it'd be nice to be able to actually play a Black Lantern team without having to shell out half a grand, since they're, y'know, pretty important to the DC universe of the past year or so.
I don't care about the rest.

i voted yellow, simply because i'm a sucker for the sinestro corps. but in all reality, we already have a fine selection of sinestro coprs members to make many different teams out of.
in all seriousness, i think th black lanterns are the only ones that warrent a collector set of their own. despite how much we love the other corps, (and the green lanterns already got one) they wouldn't sell well on their own. black lanterns appeal to almost all DC fans and then some (is that a zombie batman? do want!) if a common comic/heroclix fan saw a set of red people they've barely ever heard of, or one orange guy on a big base (however awesome that may be (imma go make one actually)) they more than likely would pass. look at how "successful" the invincible set was. years later and it's still on the shelf. a great set, just not a big enough fan base.

None.
It's kind of dumb that every character in the DC universe has a colored ring.
My wife bugs me about every week for a Dex-Starr.
"Did they make the angry cat, yet?"
She has about half a dozen clix on her desk at work: Booster, Blue Beetle, Ambush Bug, Deadpool, Rocket Raccoon... I think that's all right now, but she wants more.

Black Lanterns I'd like to see as a collector set. The rest (especially more Green Lanterns) I'd like to see integrated into the next couple of normal DC sets.
None.

Despite the fact that I am more of a Marvel guy, I like the idea of the different Lantern Corps.
