Actually I would be VERY surprised if we didn't get more than 20 figures in each line (in fact Captain America's presentation said "20+"). They basically said the same thing about Iron Man 2 last year, and then ended up revealing four or five more waves over the course of the year. They will at least carry Thor and Cap through the DVD release and/or the holiday season, and Hasbro rarely launches ANY line with the intent of it only lasting 6 months (as you're basically proposing here).

They'll likely try to get all their waves out before the end of calendar year 2011, but I'm betting there'll still be product from all three lines lingering on shelves by the time the Avengers toys are launched.
