Part of the hold up on Storm could be her cape. Boog Nice interviewed Dwight Stahl last night and asked him about using soft goods on the figures. Dwight stated that he hated soft goods and that they were more expensive to make. Hasbro could be experimenting with new materials and designs for Storm's cape since the cape tips usually connect to her wrists.

But they have done it before, with the first X-Men wave, so it's not impossible, I just sadly dont' think it's likely.

I'm also extremely worried that we saw nothing beyond Hercules of the Avengers waves, assuming he is in that. Mainly because I know they tend to hold stuff back on the movie themed waves because of reveals, but if they were going to give us Ebony Maw/Corvus Glaive, they wouldn't be spoiling anything as they already showed up in A: IW. I really do hope they're coming but with them being no shows so far I'm definitely concerned.

Firestar could always be put into next year's vintage wave. She'd be a better fit for a VW anyways.

As for the Avengers wave, I think there is plenty of room for Ebony Maw and Corvus Glaive. For Infinity War, Hasbro didn't reissue any of the GOTG or Spiderman since they had all been given figures last year. I would expect them to do the same thing for any characters wearing the same costume in Avengers 4. Based on the concept art for Avengers 4, six of the remaining heroes are shown wearing new costumes. One of them is Captain Marvel and she'll get a figure(s) in her own wave and Hulk is large enough that they'll probably make him a BAF again. That leaves four Avengers who would need a slot in an Avengers wave. If Hasbro makes two Avengers waves with six figures per wave, that's four slots out of twelve taken up by MCU Avengers. That leaves eight out of twelve slots available for Ebony Maw and Corvus Glaive.
