Especially when these are the same molds used previously. The word "limited" here is really being pushed to the edge of it's definition.

Well, the paint on these makes them look less disgusting than the originals?
So people did buy the originals, I ... I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

They should just paint TF characters on bricks and sell them for $1000. Then they can break some of the painted bricks in half and sell them as "busts" for twice the price.
