More minions for PvE

How about D3 introduce more "minions" for PvE so you can change up the events so it's not the same old "Meet Rocket & Groot" Run #210.

Just introduce 4-8 more "minions" that D3 can swap out in the event.   Thus having a "Meet R&G version A" (with one set of minions) and "Meet R&G version B" (with different ones mixed in).

The new minions don't have to replace Muscle for Muscle, but could switch out one for instance.  Like in Meet R&G,  The Jugger+Muscle+Muscle node, you swap out one of the Muscles to something different.

My idea for different "minions:

Soldiers Group (Hammer/Shield)
APC  (Armored Hull, Purple-Drops a Purple 3-Turn countdown counter, while out it takes 50% damage; Gatling Gun, Green, Deals XXX damage when countdown counter resolves) [replaces Soldier]
Helicopter  (Flying Fast, Purple- Takes 75% less damage from Area affect attacks, Missile Lock-Red- Deals YYY damage when counter resolves).  [Replaces Commander]

Maggia
Ganster Mobile (Stim Tabs-Yellow- Heals team by XXX damage; Open Fire-Blue- Deal YYY damage to the enemy team).  [Replaces Muscle]

Mutants


Ultron Sentries
Ultron Hulk

Mindless
????

It would be something relatively simple (except the art) to do, any would improve the variety of the PvE play.

    The last 3 new Minions we got were

    - Sentries
    - Symbiotes
    - Mindless Ones

    Thanks, I'd rather not have them come up with another terrible kind of enemy.
