Anyone else remember what Hasbro was saying about customizing shortly before the 25th figures came out? People were asking if the new design would allow for it and Hasbro said something along the lines if "We're aware of how popular it is among fans to customize characters and we're happy to be able to say that the design of the new figures will lend them to even greater possibilities."

It's like they got all excied about how many more separate parts would make up each figure but ignored the fact that a lot of the would require boil-&-pop or ripping apart glued-together seams.

Those "custom" figures by the Hasbro employees they've showcased come across to me as more of a tease, saying "look what we could do with the line even by reusing a bunch of parts if we get that far, come on, buy our stuff" rather than "look what the customizing possibilities are for everyone."
