There were 13 in comics, probably more though as I'm not sure if it was clear that it was all of them.

What we do know for fact is it's not the kree and not the skrulls.
That only leaves the Disir which do serve under Loki(and fit the inbetween realms remarks), the Badoon, the sons of muspell, Ultimate Thanos(dimensional alien, which fits the criteria), or undead mutated Korbinites. Thanos or the badoon are possible but likely to have been pushed back to a different movie so they can use the GOTG movie to push it forward first. Looking at the toy roster, Thanos isn't in this one at all or we'd get a figure of him. The TBD figures we've been told are troop builders of the alien armada. A movie-verse version of the Disir makes the most sense, and this movie would decimate their ranks enough to knock them down to around 11 or so remaining for future usages. The infinity gauntlet was just an easter egg. It might be used later, but probably not something for the avengers. Though Ultimate Thanos and his cosmic cube do also fit the movie-verse story. The Disir just fits the appearance and the story alterations fit the same alterations made to thor's realm. This makes them aliens, have technology, and be larger in number thanks to the thor story changes.

New Nova has just warmed up on me. He kind of annoyed me in his first appearance, but now I gotta admit they hit a soft spot for me when Marvel started suggesting he's from St Louis. I just can't dislike a superhero that's obsessed with the cardinals.

I definitely want a figure of him now to go with the Richard Ryder nova coming later.

Honestly, my money is on the Badoon.
