I read over at the BSG forum here that there are TRU exclusive BSG figures,I am really stumped why we haven't seen some Stargate exclusives there. I was thinking about easy repaints and headswaps that would work, and this is what I came up with,

Black Ops Sam - repaint
Black Ops Mitchell - repaint
Apophis - could use the Jaffa body with gold paint which would be bigger than it should be
Pigtail Vala - just need a new head
Teal'c in garrison uniform - repaint or black ops figure with a possible headswap for a early seasons T
Sam in garrison - repaint of desert figure

That's all I can think of right now.

Ohhhh, what great ideas. I would love to see more SG figures, but I hope they wait until I have some money do to anything ... if they do anything.

There is actually quite an insane amount that they could do with pre-existing bodies.

Serpent Guard (could be a different ethnicity)
Teal'c (Black ops - Full gear)
Teal'c (Black ops - Full gear - Haired)
Teal'c (Woodland)
Teal'c (Desert - Haired)
Teal'c (Jaffa armor - Haired)
O'Neill (Woodland)
O'Neill (Desert - Full gear)
Jackson (Black ops - Full gear)
Jackson (Woodland)
Carter (Black ops)
Carter (Desert)
Carter (Woodland)
Mitchell (Desert)
Mitchell (Black ops - Full gear)
Jonas (Desert)
Jonas (Black ops - Full gear)
Vala (Black ops - Full gear)
Vala (SG-1 - Normal)
Vala (Desert)

Of course, Apophis could be nearly a repaint, he would just need a retooled head and a hand with the handdevice. There are also a load of t-shirt and garrison variations they could do, but not sure how well those would do at actual retail. Even without those, though, there are a TON of options for them. 2-packs following a 1 repaint / 1 retool theme could bring a ton of great stuff easy. They just can't be as cheesy as the Prior Daniel / BO Teal'c 2-pack.

You know what I'd really love to see released as Toys R Us exclusives? Black ops Atlantis figures. Maybe released like this?

Black ops Sheppard / Kolya
Black ops Teyla / Michael
Black ops McKay / Todd the Wraith
