My predictions:
Toy Fairs:
1. Iron Man 3 - Blue Steel
2. Star Wars - Han & Luke Stormtrooper Disguise 2 pack
3. Batman - Bruce & Ras League of Shadow 2 pack
Summer Exclusive (Like Midas):
Either one of these:
Battle Damaged Mark III
Iron Man 3 - Gamma (Striker green repaint)
Mark 42 w/ Helmeted Pepper HS
Avengers AOU Tony Stark featuring a down-sized HS of the 1/4 scale release.
Though I just don't see them not just releasing another basic Mark for the Summer Release.
I searched Facebook for "Hot Toys Summer Fair Exclusive" and it looks like they usually announce them the first week of July. So we're only barely over a month away.
2014 - Bank Robber Joker, Python Iron Man and Predator.
2013 - Star Spangled Cap, Superman and Joe Colton
2012 - Rescue Cap, SWAT Gordon and Angelica
What do you think they'll do for 2015?
Drax and Ripley
Did GotG really sell that badly? The StarLord ex sold out and the regular is on waitlist. Rocket and Groot are only being released now, so we don't really know how well it has sold. Gamora is really the only one that might be around awhile, but it seems many people didn't want that character anyway, even if they were getting the others.
How about the Winter Soldier figures? SSC are heavily discounting Cap and Bucky right now, with Falcon likely to join that list sometime in the near future. The Batman set and RoboCop are collecting dust on the shelves and the only way to move them is with heavy discounts.
I honestly don't see many regular HT releases selling out during preorders anymore. Either they make too many, or people are just waiting around for a discount rather than having to pay full price.

HT are increasing prices with every new series, and collectors are getting pissed off. So they wait. Plus, HT are very predictable now. Every Marvel Studios film gets figures, with the odd summer release peppered in between. DX's are dead, even the Star Wars line, while cool, has no real surprise element to it.
