Consider this: a mold was used until it was worn out and destroyed. Since there weren't any upcoming figures that required that particular accessory, the destroyed mold was never replaced by Mattel. Therefore when Mattel and Super 7 signed their agreement, there was no mold for Mattel to give to Super 7. And this doesn't even take into consideration that molds could have been left behind when production moved to a different factory or even stolen by an employee. Mattel, and most other toy companies, doesn't actually oversee the factories that manufacture their figures. Whatever agreement Mattel and Super 7 signed only required Mattel to hand over what they currently had, which is why in the video the guy says that some of the molds they received are worn out.
