Then it's a line wide relaunch of all #1s once that's over. 55-60 of them. Not all the titles of which have been revealed yet.

Personally, I'm hoping this Marvel Infinite stall is because they are biding time to coincide the next waves with the new titles. So hopefully (keeping my fingers crossed at least!) we might see the new wolverine as a figure, falcon cap, female thor, captain marvel, and more finally as figures with hopefully still some other classic throwback figures sparsely scattered in like the post AvX Cyclops among others.

There's a nice timing gap in it this time, that if Hasbro hauls butt on it, they could have waves hit the same time as the new titles do. And the smart thing would be to start with the already prevalent characters like Falcon Cap, Female Thor, Captain Marvel, Kate Bishop Hawkeye(Clint Barton Hawkeye variant which can be a straight up repack of his Assemble figure), new Daredevil, Superior Spider-man, new Ironman(Rescue as a variant) and the new wolverine. Those would cover all the mainstay bases and give them time to see how well received the other titles are that are heavier unknowns. Wave 2, if I were them, I'd rely heavier on the animated characters that have appeared like White Tiger, Kazar, Agent Venom, Sam Nova, with nuMarvel Citizen V and Thunderbolts Luke Cage and Songbird, etc. So this would gain them some footing back into the market heavier while they decided if certain new characters should get figures or not based on their reception.

Citizen V and Songbird in particular allow older Marvel while still being new Marvel at the same time. So those two in particular are the best of both worlds on the figure front.

Plus they've got plenty of other figures still in the backlog that need to reach shelves still or be re-released like Red She-Hulk while they prep for this.

Thanks...wonder what X-Title they'll re release then...and who will be in what teams.
