Not a chance. It is VERY expensive to cast a hollow shell that, essentially, doesn't really do anything. It was an awful business idea in the 80/90s and awful now, economically speaking. Trying to do so pretty much sunk Fansproject. Look no further than Coronation Starscream or Deathsaurus as examples. In those cases, it is a chair, but same idea and it added significant cost and significant retail markup. Why? Because hollow molds like that are large and take up a butt ton of room on a metal mold plate. As a fan, it would be great, as a realistic business person, it doesn't make economic sense, unfortunately.
