I don't have any doubts there will be an updated classic Dr. Strange - either in the wave or a pack or single exclusive of some sort. The characters is fairly congruent with the MCU version, so Marvel would still want Hasbro to use the classic look for figures.

Mandarin on the other hand is getting a complete make over and name change in the MCU. They may consider the classic Mandarin persona to be a bit embarrassing of a sterotype they wish to move away from. And I get that, but the history of the character still remains, and, for our purposes, the existing TB Mandarin is sorely in need of an update - maybe not to what the Deathstrike/Rogue TB versions levels, but pretty damened close.

Unfortunately with no rumors/leaks or anything about a comic Mandarin, and the new look and name change, I do not see it happening. Which will mean, he'll probably be my #1 most wanted figure in a couple of more years.
