Here is what I have for each archtype already:

Lavafume Invoker

Goblin Tinkerer
Mogg Fanatic

Skywatcher Adept
Coralhelm Commander
Cosi's Trickster
Lullmage Mentor

Manta Riders

Elite Vanguard
Hero of Bladehold
Masako the Humorless
Magus of the Disk

Martyr of Sands
Fiend of Hunter
Blade Splicer

Please keep the suggestions oriented towards filling slots, not replacing what I already have.

Thanks.

thanks for the input. i tried a few other forums and people either did not respond or scrutinize my aim at having tribal decks in cube.

g/b zombie elf
r/w goblin soldier (when soldier was a type not a class)
b/w zombie soldier
etc...

I have a tribal cube, and we overlap on a couple tribes.

To your list I think that I'd add:

Bloodmark Mentor
Goblin Vandal
Mogg War Marshal
Goblin Taskmaster
Sparksmith

Carrion Feeder
Maggot Carrier
Zombie Cannibal
Dregscape Zombie
Shepherd of Rot
Cemetery Reaper
Corpse Harvester
Undead Warchief

If you want to check out my tribal cube listing, it's here:

Have you thought about the better changeling or mistform creatures? They'd fit in any archetype that is tribal.

Proteus Machine (may be too weak)
Changeling Titan
Firebelly Changeling
Skeletal changeling
the 3/1 mistform flyer with morph (seaswift?)
the 2/2 flying changeling for 2W
