The character selection was almost flawless. Even if they did not release 3-4 MCU versions of the Black Panther and his supporting cast, they could have done comic versions and personally I would've been okay with that.

Same here. I don't really have an urge to collect many MCU figures, though I do see the importance of having them. I feel it's kind of a necessary thing that has to be done now. Me, I'd be thrilled to get the Black Panther movie characters done in their comic versions.

Imagine this: some kid goes and watched the Black Panther movie...they go toy shopping for Killmonger and the Dora Milaje, and find Namor, Black Bolt, Iron Man...while they recognize Iron Man for sure, they already have a bunch of him, they're not going to necessarily buy him again. Based on just watching the movie they have no idea who Namor or Black Bolt are either, so it's not really like they would have a desire to pick them up. It's poor marketing tie in either way.

Marvel is doing a tremendous job wtih Black Panther from what I've seen so far, Hasbro is dropping the ball all over the place. The more I analyze this wave the less logical it becomes.
