We might have to wait until Toy Fair to see what's going to happen. There might be a chance of them rebranding it all somehow and that's why everything's being shifted over. No point in using old packaging if retailers won't order the old. Retailers always want new.

We could also get lucky though, and they'll use some of these like Valkyrie, Enchantress, Skurge, and others in a wave of the Avengers Assemble line. The same could happen to the X-Men figures really too. Especially if the toon does an AvX episode down the line.

I'm just really keeping my fingers crossed that the X-Men figures make it into an impromptu quick X-Men: Days of Future Past line. They could toss in a a quick comic only wave for retailers that use molds like:

Emma Frost - Unreleased
New Astonishing Cyclops - Unreleased
Juggernaut Colossus - Unreleased
X-23 Unmasked - Re-released/repaint
Unmasked Astonishing Wolverine - Re-released
Dazzler - Retool from Dagger (wishful thinking)
And any other X-men/Alpha flight prototypes they didn't quite get to.
Mix it in with some quick movie figures like Logan with the brown jacket from XMO:W + one with grey temples and they should fly off the shelves pretty fast. Though personally if they do this, I'd hope we'd see Ultimate Nimrod and Bastion too.

The X-Men figures would be the hardest to find slots for anywhere right now with the Avengers heavy product labeling coming. Avengers heavy does give us a shot at Spider-man(Black Cat, Superior, Carnage, Flash Thompson Venom), cosmic marvel, inhumans, fantastic 4, Thor family, Captain America, etc though. Even the few Mutants that could fit under Avengers have mostly Avengers-centric costumes(Sunspot, Cannonball, X-23, etc).
