I'd agree with the SDCC speculation. The reason it wasn't shown in silhouette at 12 days could be that the sculpt either wasn't complete or hadn't been approved by either Sideshow or Marvel, possibly both.
When a company has a license all the pieces need multiple approvals; Concept, Design, Sculpt, Paint etc. before being shown.
That being said I don't think Sideshow would announce anything that wasn't in the sculpt approval phase. I'd speculate they're probably 2-4 months out from full approvals, depending upon if there are any changes so July makes the most sense for a full reveal and it also gives them a large stage to do it on.
Again all speculation but from what I know of how process works both from my own experience and people I know that'd be my guess.
