I'm hoping for news of a MS gladiator Hulk from Thor Ragnorok, but it's probably too early in the year for news from that movie.

No mention of Pulp Fiction. Bummer. Hoping we see more Marvel Gallery reveals. Such a great price point for a statue piece. And can we please get some 7" Marty and Doc figures. Also, really tired of seeing mini and vini- mates.

I wouldn't hold out too much hope for 7" Back to the Future figures. The license doesn't include the actors' likeness rights (as per multiple answers by NECA, who answer that on a near daily basis). They would have to negotiate separately for each actor they wanted to do, as Hot Toys did. It's easier to hide those duel licensing fees in a $250 - $300 release than it is in a $25 release.
