I hope they reach more into the comic lore in later waves, and use armored cap like the minimates did, and some other compatriots like falcon, Sharon carter, or Agent Moralez, or even bad guys like crossbones, the red skull, red skull's daughter, and so on. I hope they don't go overboard with cap alone like Ironman. And instead learn from the mistakes a bit. I do love the universal back connector points though.

Thor's line has me a lil worried.
So far just those 3. Odin, Thor, and Loki with transformable weapons.
I'm hoping for some more movie asguardians as well as the destroyah armor, but I'd also like some comic waves like beta ray bill, Rogue thor, thor corps and whatever else they can dredge like the rock aliens.

From what I understand about Hasbro's marketing scheme for Marvel in the upcoming year is that they are creating 3 new lines for us. Iron Man Armored Avenger, Captain America First Avenger and Thor I forget the tag line.

Anyway, these three lines will include movie figures but are also designed I believe to transcend the movie and be available for a while before and after.

I could be very wrong about this, but that is what I understand from the SDCC press conference.

Anyway, I share your concerns about the Thor line. It does look gimicky but I have faith that the line will prove to be awesome yet. At least we know we are getting a pretty good version of the Destroyer
