I got Ondata from a fig festival last year so I will be fertilizing the hell out of it for vigorous growth.
Nice, the bud on one of my Ondatas has grown so aggressively it cracked the bark/leaf scar right below it. They might have been my best rooters this year as well.
I added quite a bit this year and they are all equally anticipated by me 
For something that I already have and really excited to try more mature fruits, I would say it’s Pissalutto Bianco and Pastiliere. PB is a stubborn fig. I have had ripe figs since the first year I planted it, but they weren’t very good. Last year a few really surprised me and I read from Eisen’s publication that is really highly valued back then.
Pastiliere needs no introduction. I strongly believe that it’s one of the best dark figs one can grow. Gustav Eisen himself said that if he had to grow only one blue fig, it’s Pastiliere.

I have only ever tasted my Chicago hardy fresh! So I am excited for ALL of the new figs.
A local guy gifted me a little I-258 cutting that currently has a single leaf (and roots). I think that is probably the one I am most excited to try if it fruits.

Out of the newest batch of cuttings. Capri A. But out of the last two batches of cuttings. Not sure. Added around 50 varieties over winter. The addiction is real.

I haven't started any cuttings yet and I have many good ones but I'm probably most excited for Mehdi's Famous Fig. My best buddies family is from Iran and I'm looking forward to sharing with him. I gave him an air layer of Iranian Candy last year.

I’m keen to see how Porto Palermo grows for you as I missed out on securing a cutting this year.
