is it because of the MCU tie in?


.

I assume it has to do with the Thor wave having a unique code/UPC/whatever, whereas the 2017 X-Wave has the same code/UPC/whatever as the 2016 X-Wave, meaning that, if there's still 2016 stock on the pegs, it counts as X-Men, and thus keeps 2017 stock from being added.

Same reason that, at least around here, the second GOTG Vol. 2 wave (the Mantis wave) has only been trickling out - the pegs are still loaded with the first Vol. 2 wave (Titus), or in the case of Target, the overpriced re-releases of the first film's Groot wave (god I am so tired of Space Iron Man)
