Property Grid / TypeConverter / StandarValues - popup display empty text for all items

i have a class with property of type Object, with has a limited options of possible values (not my values so i can't have them all inherit from a common class).

I've created a type converter for that property since each different value type can and should be displayed differently (standard values, properties, simple text, etc).

Either way, when the object is a specific type (Texture2D if it matters, shouldn't though), i'm generating a collection of items, where the last one of them is null (intentionally);

However, from some reason it seems the property grid is either ignoring/removing or something with the values (not including the last);
When the combobox list popup, it shows 2 items (in the case of one item + null) with 2 empty lines, where the first one shouldn't be an empty line;

i have tried debugging through all the type converter, and even looking at the reflector, i can't see any reason why would that happen.
Also note that when i debugged the type converter methods, i've noticed that the ConvertTo method is being called with the actual first value that should be displayed in the combobox, and i am returning it as a string, which make even less sense why the combobox won't display the first item text ..
