It makes sense to have two heads for Cobra Commander when one is the helmet and one is the hood.
Super7, however, feels the need to have no hooded version, but to include two complete helmet heads; with and without a stripe. It would be too hard to just change out the top part of the helmet.

And then, instead of making the shaft of the scepter wide enough to fit in the grip hands, they make the shaft thin and engineer a hand that can only hold the scepter.

And, I guess each one had an appearance in the cartoon, but it kills me that there are three pistols that each just look like a "Ray Gun".
To be fair, Brian Flynn did mention in an interview that they weren't allowed to make a hooded CC. So I can see a scenario where maybe they were moving forward with a hooded head and had to change it last minute.
But, maybe i'm giving them too much credit cause it feels like I could go through just about all of my Ultimates and find instances of questionable design & accessory choices.
