MM Advice for Theme idea please
I'm working on a Ninja/Time.
Very fun, old master concept ripped off of Terry Pratchett's Thief of Time book.
Ninjas are squishy, they keep you on your toes.
I put the oppressive force proc in Geijin, for KD shenannigans
Currently having fun with Beast/Storm. Storm might be good for monologuing; you can create an ominous cloud over your head, make attention-getting thunderclaps, and generally toss people around like rag dolls.

I once made a Bot/FF named Mr. Monologue. Had different monologues bound to keys so I could string them together. Was great fun, though FF bored me so much I deleted him.
The most fun I've ever had with an MM, and the character that remains my main, is my Nin/Time. Very squishy, but if anything can take care of ninjas, its /Time.
However, for megalomaniacal antics I'd recommend bots/traps, bots/time, or demons/anything. Depending on origin and prefered method of world domination.
Well if he is bent on conquering the world, I'd say something professional. So bots, mercs, ninjas or Thugs. Far as secondaries go, you've done most of the main things that go with them.
Or could do a /time so he can memorize his speeches faster.
Hmmm...Bots/Time? Perhaps (steeples fingers...)

I have a fun idea for a new themed MM but few ideas as to what sets to use. I need some help from the audience. Some caveats:
I already have Zom/Dark, Bot/FF, Thug/Trap, Merc/Poison and Demon/Thermal so it can't be one of those.
Has to be FUN. Don't care if I can solo AVs or anything crazy...just want to be fun (as in 'I'm not standing around while the pets do ALL the work' fun)
Can't be OtT expensive to build (I don't mind IOs later on but I want to enjoy it at the DO/SO level)
The theme will be really over the top madman bent on conquering the world blah blah but he's a SERIOUS megalomaniac, monologuing all over the place and waving his fists at people. Then when his plans go wrong (as then often do) he does the typical villain rant and tirade.
Suggestions from the house? Anyone?
