As for making more money, that's debatable. I suspect they may sell more units overall but we would also see a noticeable drop in the quality and articulation of the figures. Forget about interchangeable parts like we have seen lately.
Agreed as well as the 3.75 how much they make off of those since the price for those at retail have gone up lately.

One thing I wanted to point out : The X-Wave will have “about 7 figures” and will be announced at ToyFare in February and hit shelves around the time of X-Men: Apocalypse but will not feature any cinematic versions of characters."

To me that means we could get versions of Psylocke, Cyclops, Apocalypse, et al, just not based on their cinematic look. That doesn't rule out the BAF not being Apocalypse.

Honestly though I hope we get more never done before figures than revamps (the Rouge was a needed revamp though so I wont' complain about that.) I've listed what I'd like to see several times but I will consider this wave a win to me as long as we get Polaris....even if the entire rest of the wave is revamps. Of course, if we don't get Polaris I will be rather disheartened, but it will be what it will be.

I am so ready for the news on this wave.
Looking forward to it, the reason part of me keeps collecting the legends stuff sigh :P
