Almost certain Ed Mcguinness is one of them.
Also Fin Fang Foom isn't cancelled. He was going to be the con exclusive but they changed it really late to make something specifically Avengers themed. They saw this as the summer of Avengers and wanted to ride that wave.
They are looking for a home for Foom and they will likely have some more info in New York.
I need to try to get back to NYCC. I had a blast there last year.

You heard it here first folks. Further conversation led me to believe the MU team MAY be Alpha Flight (but that is just speculation).

Also the distribution question was finally answered. We heard two different answers though. The one I was told at the panel was that they shipped too much Early Series 4 stuff before the Avengers movie and the movie toys and Legends had MU peg warming as many collectors went to those other lines.
In the future they want to make sure ML and movie lines don't consume MU lines by not shipping it in a huge hurry right before the summer (see Thor/Iron Fist wave).
But Pete was told something else...
This is from the other thread about the future of MU, but it's worth pointing out here since others may not have seen it.
Count me excited and appreciative of hasbro. Bring on NYCC!
