Nathan, I think it’s more likely that AFOLs simply asked Ben for these after seeing the great work he did on the train wheels. I know I asked him for other things - I wish I’d thought of these too :) And it is likely that tooling up to produce these took several months, so I think no, there is unlikely to be a connection.
