DC Direct has done an incredible job in my opinion. The detail is great and the articulation has improved over the years. They have released figures of almost everyone I have wanted; from Lobo to Firestorm, to Guy Gardner and Kilowog (upcoming), Parallax to Doomsday.
However, there are a few figures I would still like to see released in new or updated plastic forms:
The Ray: He was a major player in Young Justice and is an awesome character with great light powers comparable to Green Lantern. I want a figure of him in the black and yellow "power on" look.
Azrael: I am surprised this major player in the Batman universe has never been made. I want a figure of his original hooded look from "The Sword of Azrael." Complete with flaming sword.
Knightquest Batman: I would like a figure of Azrael's interpretation of the Batman costume. He needs a removable cape and the bladed gauntlets. (the version released by in 1999 was great, though)
Ragman: This is a personal favorite of mine. I would love him released in his rag attire with a cloth patchwork cape.
Mongul: The intergalactic baddie responsible for destroying Coast City really deserves a figure.
Massacre: Another badass intergalactic baddie. He got an older figure from Kenner, but he really deserves a new scale more articulated version.
Guy Gardner (with Sinestro's ring): I thought it was so badass that the anti-hero GL got the anti-GL ring. Since his first figure was so hard to find, he should get another in the black and yellow attire he had while bearing Sinestro's ring.
Darkseid: He had a crappy figure that came in the box set with Orion, but the biggest evil in the DC universe deserves a new figure with better articulation and a more menacing expression.
Bane: Since the 4 Horsemen Mattel version may be MIA, DC Direct should release a box set version of Bane (like Solomon Grundy and Gorilla Grodd) so he can be huge.
Neuron: I still think the main badguy from the Underworld Unleashed storyline should have gotten a figure.
