As you can see, the line was unveiled consistently through the summer like AOU's and then dropped off for months before unveiling Coulson and the BD Mark VII six months later. Banner and the Chitauri came literally a full year and a half after the movie opened in theaters.
If that's not hope for Quicksilver and Ultimate Ultron I don't know what is.
From the hill thread-your statements are incorrect. The banner figure was previewed as early as Mid April 2013. A long time before the date you put in. All that work and it is wrong. Here is one of the preview images. There's lots more released before November. Here s a link to the one of the pages from this forum where it was discussed in April 2013.

So the figure was previewed April 2013.
Movie came out May 2012.
What's your point, guy?
Because here's mine - there hadn't been any new reveals for more A1 figures for over six months. Between November 2012 and April 2013 there was no indication of Banner coming or not coming. And we're in the same exact boat with Quicksilver. He's probably coming later and not having a prototype at SDCC this year doesn't mean he isn't being made.
He's saying the release schedule isn't a good indicator of if/when QS will be released.
As usual, he's wrong.
What happened with Banner between November 2012 and April 2013 is happening right now with Quicksilver. An absence from SDCC (Banner didn't appear at SDCC 2012) is absolutely no indication of Quicksilver's cancellation.
So, Chitauri and Banner were released far after the film, and how were sales for those two figures? Both deeply discounted on the Gift Card list from SSC's site. I wonder what lesson HT learned from that?
Drax ain't happening, and Quicksilver ain't happening. Nothing to see here, folks. Move on, enjoy your Iron Men, and goodnight!
First Class Xavier and Rorschach could also still happen!
There's nothing to suggest they'll come a year and a half later like those figures did.
All that can be surmised from Banner is that he wasn't at SDCC 2012 yet still happened. Quicksilver & Drax missed SDCC 2015 and like Banner - can still happen.
I don't understand why you bring them up when they're not relevant to the discussion at hand.
I guess you've made up your mind about these figures being cancelled despite evidence to suggest otherwise.
He brings them up cause they're exactly where QS and Drax were, teased, never heard from again
So... What the point to highlighting when those figs were released? Could've just mentioned that they came out later
