Why no new 1/6th model kits for bashing?

Wouldn't it have been awesome if any of these new Knight Models kits were 1/6 scale? Would have been super sweet for bashes. Too bad, esp. that Gambit.

Damn, at 3" these are $70

1/6 would cost as much as PF.

Don't think too many of those would've been that useful anyways since Gambit for example is a bit hunched which would make his chest armor useless. Would have to probably try to heat it and warp it.

Yeah, but that's because they're solid resin. Cheapo hollow vinyl would have not only made them affordable but also easier to cut. And Gambit's boots, hands, head, staff and possibly chest armor would have been useable. Eh, I'm just saying. Was excited when I saw "model kits" for new pre-orders only to find out neither those, nor the Spiderman ones were 1/6th scale. Would have made some pretty nice bashes.
