Lures you would like to see in production again

Lots of time on my hands these days-

Any baits/lures you guys would like to see being made again?  

I grew up throwing Shannon Spinners for just about anything, but no longer being made- Hildebrandt made the Nugget which was a good substitute with a little modification.

Woodchoppers had a specific "slurshing" sound on a stop-go retrieve that smallies seemed to find irresistible- the Ace in the Hole was close, but neither are made anymore.

Blue Fox made a 2-bladed vibrax in 5-6 sizes that killed pike and bass- it was essentially a small cowgirl with bucktail- they still make them but only up to a size 3

Rapala DT Fat 0 was a great top water twitch/wake bait, but there are some decent substitutes.

All these aren't in production anymore, but I really wish they were- you guys got anything you'd like to see being made again?

Surfing old threads on a Sunday morning and I find this interesting one...
I even asked/showed Brad Ruh at the Milwaukee Muskie Show about this one. Yes, they are out of production.

Its actually one of my fishing partners looking for these because he's had such good luck with them...To the point that is getting hard to repair them!

Musky Innovations Real Fish series.  Sucker, in WHITE.

That black 4” plastic worm with the metal lip. It had 2 or 3 hooks and was dynamite for walleyes.    Made by LAZY IKE I believe.
