NECA was going to but there wasn't enough support or feedback from buyers/retailers. Claptrap stole way too much attention so demand for vault hunters fizzled. For comparison, when Gremlins weren't selling the retailers basically axed the line but because the Mogwai did sell they could continue those.

I love Moxxi's character design, but I'd feel like such a perv owning that.

^Hell yes this. Between releasing Claptrap and no Vault Hunters, and releasing L4D Boomer and Smoker figures but none of the survivors, there are some seriously glaring omissions going on when companies get their hands on popular game licenses. Makes no sense.

Valve was actually part of the reason we got no L4D humans, just like they're currently stalling the TF2 figures. Retailers have also expressed that they don't want toys of normal people who aren't title characters or recognizable otherwise. The L4D survivors are way too normal looking. It all makes sense, just the cruel real-world sense. You go into business to earn a profit, not to satisfy every single customer. If a company like NECA gave in to every demand/request they'd go belly up pretty quickly.
