If it's canceled it's because retailers aren't ordering more CPs, which seems odd with the recent price hike and the ones shown.
On the flipside though, they could end up at clearance stores for cheaper.

If anything, Ant-Man (O'grady) may end up in a team pack or single carded later since Hasbro would probably not let that mold go unused.

Odds are it's probably being retooled to update the legs on both, or they are pushing it back to favor some other figures first. They didn't show off thanos/adam warlock, or Quicksilver/wonderman or Daredevil Bullseye or gambit sinister either.

Chances are it's also because it was toy fair which is about generating retailer orders, not pleasing fans. Whereas the cons (SDCC and NYCC) are about generating fan buzz. Retailers may have already ordered those CPs, so there was no reason to push them, and instead opted to push the new ones to keep the orders coming in.

The same is probably true about thundercats. The store orders are coming in fine right now, no need to show much off. Whereas the cons need the fan buzz so showing stuff off there would be the best thing. (Plus too much is probably still in the making a prototype stage like the armor of plundarr or whatever other new stuff might be in the pipeline for christmas/next year.)
