That's true except here at Chez OTR, where a certain 5 year old is very obsessed with Sam and articulated engines in general. I know that, realistically, I'll end up having to build one by kitbashing a couple other engines. It would be nice if I didn't have to but that's how the market works nowadays. Sadly, this isn't the the era of 5-10 years ago where either or both companies would release just about every character they could.
