^ they obviously have the sculpts, since most are just repaints with new heads. it is not that hard to cast a few parts and paint them. true that it does take time, but they need to do it anyway to send samples (paint masters) to the licensor (NHL, NHLPA, team, player, equipment manufacturer) and to the factory for production.
it is certainly a lot easier just to photoshop an existing photo, but why? that just looks bad. also, there should already painted samples for NY Toy Fair, which was last month.
