Speaking as someone who's not the biggest fan of the TB Marvel Legends, I'd say that, while they might be a couple waves off, waiting will likely pay off. Both of the blue boys are popular, and in regular books right now, so the odds of them seeing new figures soon are pretty decent. That said, if you've got a good deal on them, I don't see why you shouldn't grab them - you can always flip them later. Kurt's only real drawback, IMO, is the headsculpt, same as you (needs more jovial!Kurt), and Hank just has that over-sculpting and over-paint wash thing I personally don't like with TB Marvel Legends.

And the X-Men Classics Kurt is the Ultimate version anyway, so he's just a creepy creeperson.
