They really just messed up badly on this one and it's a rarity for them with this line the last few years.

It's especially baffling because he's entirely new tooling, at least from what I can see. They could have easily used more recycled parts and just done some joint retooling to give him swappable parts, and it probably would have cost about the same, and there wouldn't be the complaints from the consumer base (or at least, not the same complaints, because we're just an unpleasable lot )
