I have a feeling that much like the trend this will be another instance for Disney/Hasbro to understand that the "older" IPs would sell better than the more modern. Just shows the lack of confidence mixing both movie versions into one set for Professor and Magneto, you know they would have gladly made 4 figures instead of this a 2 pack with different heads.

Definitely skewed more Romijn than Lawrence, and just like someone else said, digging the new? female body sculpt (could be wrong just some detail changes), would like to see more of this on future ML female figures.
I don't think it's a lack of confidence, I think it's a lack of time and window to get figures released. These are this years version of the 80th Marvel Anniversary figures from last year or the Marvel Studios 10th Anniversary figures from the year before, so like those series' while they're going to put out a nice selection of figures from the X-Men films (or at least DoFP and Deadpool 2), these are not planned on continuing on and having say 3 or 4 waves of figures. So instead of trying to find space to put out a Stewart here and a McAvoy there, they are just going to knock it all out with one simple two pack.
