The point is that often times characters with new or unique tooling often don't end up with a lot of accessories, Boom-Boom was a solid pink standard body with mostly reused accessories and Nightcrawler who was in the same wave reuses mostly Pizza Spidey with an overlay, Also the BaF for that wave was mostly reused. I haven't talked to any of the Legends team, but if they're like other lines, there's a budget for each wave so all the figures plus the BaF draw from that pool, It's why the AoA wave is lacking in accessories,most of the budget likely went to tooling out Sugar Man. Single release figures like gray Beast and retail exclusives like the Cuckoos most likely have their own budget and the vintage/retro card waves don't have BaFs so Gwen Stacy would have more funding. Target is getting two 2 packs which most likely draw on the same allotment of funds, Rogue and Storm already have a ton of new tooling and and Rogue's second head is confirmed, so to balance that out Thunderbird and Pyro are likely to be a lot of reused parts and probably minimum accessories. I know one of the brand managers at Mattel once said during a Q&A that heads are the most expensive part of a figure to tool. So I would guess Storm is likely to have the standard lightning effects, her video game baton and maybe a second head
