Maybe, but I think the approach is more casual to just take popular characters and make them a figure first and go from there. They'll have more after Gandalf, I'm pretty sure Legolas and Gimli got announced, but after that they can finish making the Fellowship or call it quits and be fine with it.

And anyway, these could have been say an inch taller, but it probably would have cost them some of their accessories to maintain the same price point and in the end they still wouldn't right on your shelf next your Marvel or Black Series figures.
