Why do that? Well, keep in mind that Jason does make a few appearances as an hallucination in the film. That way people have a choice if they want to display him as Roy or the "real" Jason. Plus, you might sell a few extra figures to people who want to display both versions and others who want to customize it to make a Michael Meyers.

Hell, if Neca ever gets the rights to Halloween back, they'll have a body ready to use.

Good idea...the only issue with it is that when the hallucinations of Jason appear, it's Jason as he was in Final Chapter...with green shirt and khakis. Roy wears a blue mechanic's jumpsuit not unlike Michael Myers throughout the entire film.

I c ouls see Roy becoming some kind of exclusive in the future, similar to the way Pamela and child Jason was.

Funny how Neca will cite poor sales why not to make something. Seems like a cop out at times that they say to make people stop asking. Were sales so strong for the Leatherface figures (many which I saw languishing on shelves for quite a bit) that they started giving us side characters from the series nobody asked for nor expected? Did we need (or even ask...) for figures from National Lampoon's, A Christmas Story, or Silent Night Deadly Night? I'd be curious to know what the sales or even the interest was to justify those being made.
