Hasbro does have an odd logic when it comes to character selection per wave. On the one hand, they want to honour the theme, however they'd also like to sneak in requested characters, or one's they themselves like.

For instance, Bulldozer, Tiger Shark and Grim Reaper should not have been included in the Ant-Man wave, by all rights and purposes. We're still to receive a Hasbro Scott Lang figure (classic or All-New) or Cassie Lang/Stature, which would have better suited the wave, but it was nice to get one requested villain and two delayed villains we'd seen in prototype form.

The same can be said with the Strange wave. Clea or a Mindless One would have been more appropriate, but I understand the inclusion of Nico (a magic user) and Iron Fist (fellow New Avenger).
