Missing Characters
For us clue fans, we know that there are some characters missing from this game. That being said, its cool to see Peach, Rose, Gray, Brunette, Azure, Rusty, and Meadow-Brook (despite most of them not having many costumes). But like I said, to the Clue fans, there's more I'm sure we'd like to see, the characters I include will be unique colors or a different variant of a preexisting color, they are Mme Mystique (salmon), Mr Slate-Gray (taupe), Lady Lavender (lavender), Miss Grey (light grey), Mrs Silver (blueish silver), Mr Gold (amber), Dr Black (black, isn't likely due to him being the victim outside of the US), Lady Oakwood (tan) and, Dr Prussian (navy blue). The characters I didnt mention are all other variants of the Grays and Browns, however I kept Miss Grey and Slate-Gray because Miss Grey can use light grey and has the special distinction of being the original 10, Slate-Gray is unique enough and if can just be called slate to lower confusion, and Mrs Silver can use a blue gray to help distinguish herself from other grays. Sir Peach coming from the same version as Oakwood and Prussian, kinda doesn't need to exist anymore and only keeping his name would add confusion, however, there are ways to include him, 1 way is to give him that birch color that Sherlock uses (and give him a different name if need be) and the other way is to give Peach a male costume.

Those characters were all from previous versions of the game, however, there are other characters. Many characters I hear suggested are Wadsworth and Yvette, and while I love those characters, they would be hard to implement without colors. Other characters come from the book series and these include Monsieur Rouge, Sir Taupe, Mr Ecru, Mr Beige, Mme Chartreuse, Constable Mauve, and Mme Puce. These characters are less likely to ever get acknowledged again, they would certainly add some nice variations, like Chartreuse.

I dont expect the book or movie characters to make an appearance, however, the different characters from the board games would be amazing to see. If a new pack could come out and introduced only new characters and no costumes. While it would be cool to see a playable Dr Black over a Sir Peach, there's 2 things that go against that being possible, 1) Mrs White uses the color black on the note taking pad and 2) he's still the victim in every version of Clue outside the US . I would like to see (in descending order of priority) Miss Grey, Mrs Silver, Mr Gold, Lady Lavender, Lady Oakwood, Dr Prussian, Mme Mystique, Mr Slate(gray), and Sir Peach (male Peach costume). Of Course, this is if we get a 9 character pack.
