Perhaps. I share your hope. But I fear hasbo will again throw rancid mud into our faces by putting Fandral on the pizza Spidey buck, and Hogun on the old Hyperion buck, or mess up his moustache, or give him Vindicator's grumpy face, etc. Truly hope none of that happens. 

I'm unclear why you think they haven't been made yet because there wasn't a mold for Volstagg yet.

Just saw this Atlantis, lol, playing weekend catch up! Well, to my mind, as you and I have pointed out, Fandral and Hogun will almost certainly be put on bucks already out there, with certain modifications for aspects of their costumes, hopefully. Volstagg is the only one of the three, that needed a new mold, that they could use on other figures also (cost savings). Could they have used the Kingpin buck, sure, but to be comic accurate he needs to be much more rotund to do him justice. I feel they finally did the Blob mold with other characters like Volstagg in mind.  Now if they would see their way clear to use the Blob buck for a Big Bertha, maybe we can start getting some Great Lakes Avengers.

My guesses for how they will do them would be Fandral on the Spider-UK mold with hip skirt and collar overlays, Hogun on the Thor/Hercules mold with some new overlays and boots, then Volstagg using Blob's torso and otherwise new parts. They don't make a lot of Asgardians but when they do, they're larger, so those molds seem to fit well. I agree that Blob will almost definitely be reused, and Volstagg is a pretty natural first choice for it. Aside from maybe like a casual Kingpin or something.

Hasbro missed big opportunity by not making Hollow's eve and putting her with Chasm or/and Ben in pack. She would have been easy to do with Shriek body mold with just new head and hoodie/cape + accessories. Maybe she's too new but I think she appeared in right  after Chasm.

It's too early for her still. Chasm was revealed around this time last year and Hallow's Eve wasn't until October last year. I want her too, but she probably won't be made until next year or so.

I'd really like to see a side-by-side comparison of this and the earlier 2012 Buck Cap figure---there doesn't look like much difference at all.

you mean beside them being one 2 different builds? The new one used the Vulcan build while the old one used the bucky cap build.
