The Wrecking Crew body will certainly be shelved now, given that the only reason they were released on that body in the first place was their creation in 2013 but delayed release (same with Odin wave Iron Fist). Ghost Rider, Ghost, and ASM2 Electro bodies aren't exactly templates, due to Hasbro's limitations to what they can do with them, having only been used for two (?) characters each (A.I.M. mook and Ghost Rider, Ghost and Jack O' Lantern, and Electro and Scourge, respectively).

Edit: I forgot to mention the Ultron body, which resides in the same category as those mentioned above (it's only been used on comic Ultron and Ultimate Beetle - I can't see it being used anywhere else at the moment)..

When I say template, I mean the bases that Hasbro utilise for many characters, but in that regard I agree that the Coulson/suited body is now a template. So, even though Mockingbird has some unique tooling, she's still on the slender female template, whereas someone like Taskmaster is on a completely unique body, and there's no evidence that it's a new template as of yet. However the new "slim-muscular" mold as seen with Sunfire and Kris Anka's Spider-Man 2099, and the "medium-muscular" mold as seen on Spider UK will most definitely be templates for many more figures to come.

This does not mean that Hasbro will have to redo all their previous figures (I've not seen any evidence to show that these new bodies will be taller than the current ones), merely that characters will have more variety in the future. It's really as simple as that.
they will need to be remade if you want them to scale right with the new molds, look at iceman for example he's overly tall (and i think its due to his head needing to be push on lower) then he should be, and as i said before the females do have different heights but the bulkiness is almost the same but this uk mold looks so much more bulky then the bucky cap mold, and thats my problem once again i am not talking about height i am talking about bulk
