The fan's choice was a poll back during one of the cons that carried over to websites.

As for other figure choices, I think that's been covered before, but not sure how much the answers have since changed.

Lookie! Marvel Legends made one for their Hawkeye:

OAFE - ML7: Hawkeye review
My big questions:
-Will we see additional "army builders" figures? Kree, Dire Wraiths, female Hydra, SHIELD and AIM figures etc.?
-Are there plans to make 3.75" figures for the upcomng X-Men First Class movie?
-Will you show us additional "teaser silouettes" of upcoming figures? I really like the last round (and many are still not out!)

2. They've already said no, with the two packs being the nod to the movie instead. Though then again that could have since changed, but considering the production cycle, not likely.

3. The teaser silhouettes were from CTR, not hasbro directly.

That has more to do with retailers that hasbro has no control over except for when rebranded lines launch. Even then not all stores follow street dates.
