Not sure what is meant by "limited casting situation" since Learning Curve has Old Playing Mantis castings, Old Mint Edition Castings, Old Ertl casting in their inventory of possibilities.
There was a statement on one of the forums that only certain castings had a plastic base available, hence only those castings were being used in the 40th/Forever 64 lines. So while they have tons of castings available, most of them aren't being considered at the moment. Which is a pity because a little more variety would do wonders for their product range at the moment.
So we get to see the same castings repetitively.

Cheers. Cobra

Pardon my French, but that has to be one of the LAMEst excuses for being LAZY as I have ever heard from any company that makes anything. That's like saying that Red and Green paint/dyes/fabric costs too much this year and we don't have any back stock left, so everything Christmas related is going to be manufactured with the purple and yellow paint/dyes/fabric left over from the Halloween parade in NYC.
