Yeah, they're doing this on purpose. A good mix of popular figures and obscure. Otherwise, the line would run out of steam too fast. For every person saying "But they're missing X", there's a person who's completing team Y. They're missing Avengers? I have the entire 1970-ish lineup after Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver quit. (And soon we'll have them) Soon we'll have the West Coast Avengers. We also have most of the New Avengers.

X-men? I have the entire Giant Size X-men team minus Banshee, and a good chunk of the Jim Lee team going. The modern X-force is nearly completed.

And on top of all that, I'm getting my Spider-man fix on like there's no tomorrow. (Sorry, shameless fan here)

There has been a problem with women in the line, obviously, but I think that much like how the Simpsons line had to fight before they were allowed to make characters other than Bart and Homer, the Marvel Universe line has started to prove that female characters will sell. Just look at the upcoming waves. Scarlet Witch and She-hulk in one wave, Storm and Psylocke in another? It's clear that the "boys don't want female figures" line Hasbro always drags out has finally been overturned for the MU line.
