They probably want to drag this out several years so that we do eventually get them all but they have to space out the big names as well.

They're not going to fill a wave with nothing but A-list, highly demanded X-Men. They've got to save stuff for future waves. Bear in mind we may well get two waves of X-Men next year (and if not, will likely get another wave year after next). Either way, it's not like Nightcrawler or Gambit are never going to get made again. Just be patient.

As far as this rumor goes, if Gladiator is "Black costume Gladiator" (Which he's worn in more recent appearances) and Magneto is good (Classic w/ Removeable helmet would be ideal, but there are other costumes I'd accept), then I'm probably OK with it. Yeah, some folks are going to be annoyed they repacked Gladiator, but not everyone got that SDCC set.

I dunno, I think his most recent costume isn't bad at all:



Kinda reminds me of his X-Men Evolution look a little bit.

Sure, "ideal" would be a classic costume but with a new head with removeable helmet, but I'd accept the above costume. Chances are though it'll be one of the sleeveless costumes (and for whatever reason I don't like the sleeveless costumes on Magneto).

Or given their fondness for upsizing their recent 3.75" offerings to ML scale, it could be Age of Apocalypse Magneto...which I would also find acceptable. Or hell, just put classic and AoA heads in the pack.
