That's my point; considering the very close relationship between Hasbro, Marvel, and Disney, I can't imagine any of those parties thinking half the team is valuable and worthy of keeping from Hasbro. It seems to me like Bug, Mari, and Huntarr are so worthless to Marvel that they should be essentially given to Hasbro as simply a goodwill gesture between friends to maintain the current relationship.
I've heard Ike Perlmutter is a notoriously stingey bastard, and is in control over the Marvel comics and toys licensing after Feige got sick of his "LASER BLAST" and got him booted off of overseeing the movie productions. Maybe he's being the head-up-his-ass stick in the mud.
