From what I've gathered through the Q&A's that have been posted, Mighty Muggs are pretty much in the same boat as Universe: besides the current years' offerings, they are otherwise on hold until 2010 at the earliest.

Although depending on how you interpret the following excerpt, you might say that we could see ROTF Mighty Muggs later this year:

Quote:
Allspark.com - What are your plans for the Legends and Robot Heroes sublines? Will we see additional lower-tier/obscure characters, old favorites, etc in the future? Also, will Mighty Muggs be back after the TF2 movie line?

Hasbro: In 2009, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen product we be featuring the core movie characters as well as some ancillary characters throughout all of the assortments, including Legends and Robot Heroes.
MM's are basically redeco heaven, since there are only a few standard body types and accessories used. For characters that have unique accessories or variations on the body style, only minor remolds are needed. So it is a fairly cheap line to produce, especially when you consider that the Star Wars versions (which were first and are on their 7th and 8th waves now) have pretty much paid for the initial mold castings and probably a good chunk of the remold costs.

Whether this translates to more Transformers Mighty Muggs remains to be seen, especially since the movie designs might be harder to reproduce on the Mugg body than G1 or other TF eras.
