Basically, it would be too pricey for Hasbro to do, and wouldn't be worth it financially.

There's also the matter of actor likenesses which can be another whole ball of wax. Some actors have contracts stipulating that they have approval of some sort over their likenesses for merchandise.

I'm sure they could make an Incredible Hulk Abomination figure, if they wanted to. However, I think a comic version would do far better. You can still find the movie Abomination figure at some retailers.
Also look at all the movies that are slated to come out within Hasbro's contract of Marvel.

Avengers, Deadpool, Ghost Rider 2, Xmen First Class, Dr Strange, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man 3 I'm sure..., Avengers 2 even (those last two are guesses)

We totally will have a lot of companion movie lines in the years to come
