Some more details i've received from reliable sources:

There's a retro-carded Beast coming in June, presumably the rumored gray Beast. Also, presumably the random X-Men figure available to preorder from EB Games in Canada....

That's not including a possible Eternals wave

Oh yeah I should have stated about that list, it was "what else is coming out" we know (almost) for sure Eternals are getting a wave, I am fairly certain that has been confirmed (or no?)

Hasbro in general has so much stuff at some point with limited retail shelf space out there at what point is Hasbro competing more with themselves than other toy companies. This year for just 6" we have Marvel Legends, Back Series, Lightning Collection, GIJoe, Ghostbusters, maybe Overwatch though I kinda feel Hasbro might be done with that one. Still so many lines.

Hasbro are pretty much their own enemy in the 6 inch figure department now

Pretty sure Overwatch is done.

It'll be one of those things where some waves barely see retail (until perhaps post-Christmas clearances) and others flood pegs, though with no Avengers movie coming the "flood" may be more limited this year (though they seem bound and determined to make this Avengers game a thing so I might eat my words on that).

This would be a huge increase in volume over last year, which was already a record-setting year in terms of releases. This would already mean a full 50% more waves than last year.

If there's no "side assortment" like the MCU 10th/Marvel 80th stuff then it kind of balances out. Still more than last year but not by a HUGE amount. That said, I'd take that list with a bit of a grain of salt. As has been pointed out a 2nd AoA wave seems to be speculation based on a misinterpreted statement.

But I'd be surprised to see more than one "Retro" wave in a year. Maybe some extra Retro-style fan channel exclusives but yeah, the full assortments don't tend to do super-hot.

But they probably would've come with a bit more extras than just two swords, two lightning bolts.

Is it too much to ask for an extra smiling face BLUE head for Grey Beast to go along with the regular release?

(Glass half-full though, most of that Retro wave is under $10 now on Amazon.)

To add insult to injury I had to buy 3 Deadpools to build Sauron (I still can't get myself to pay full price for X-23/Wolverine) and it'll look like I would have to buy 1, 2 maybe even 3 Deadpools to build Strong Guy. Please Hasbro stop giving DP the better BAF selections...

I totally agree on the more extras, I hope marvel legends will do the same, something similar to what they did for the white costume black widow (which has a stand and effects)...this is where Marvel Diamond Select action figures have an edge.

So some new Rumors for this year in regards to whats coming out, that I have learned from a source who was talking with a distributor

we apparently will be getting (and this is rumor)

A Punisher Van! (apparently I noticed this was also talked about by others)

2 More additional X-Men waves (potentially being another Retro and another AOA wave)

5 Deluxe figures in total for this year (we already know Venom, White MCU Widow and GV Hulk) but also said to be Kingpin and an currently unknown

A potential 3rd Vintage wave, and Spidey Vintage wave

another Spider-Man wave with a BAF

Avengers Gamerverse will be getting a 2nd wave, and there will be a 3rd Avengers wave which will not be a gamerverse wave, it may infact be another movie oriented wave like the Endgame 3 wave

That's not including a possible Eternals wave
