The pre-order 'Blights' came with a selection of 3 heads including the Cyclops Heads, but shortly after the miniatures were released the Cyclops Heads were moved to the Spare Heads range which sprang out of nowhere. I think it's safe to assume some one at GW gave Heresy a phone call or letter and Heresy thus made this move to work around the IP issues.
While the basic concept of Genestealers (in so far as aliens that create human hybrids to reproduce) is not an original idea on the part of GW – they
do own IP over the Genestealer imagery
