Less Sets For Licensed Characters

Hi, I've been playing the game for a while and a little thing that's been bugging me for a bit is that a lot of the cosmetics for licensed characters are sets. some i understand with hard to translate parts, but it really hit me with the Chucky update. The whole point of a doll is to dress them up and mix and match clothes and style hair. i understand wanting to keep the iconic look, and I assume it's a licensing thing which is maybe in the contract they sign for cosmetics, but that really stood out for me.

Another survivor i didn't understand was Leon and i guess the whole RE gang. i always thought it would be fun to have his shorter hair with his leather jacket, or the suit with his re4 hair. But unfortunately they are all sets. some i get, like rabecca's cowboy outfit or ada's undercover set, but i dont see why you cant keep the bottom and torso a set and let the head be interchangeable. I get why Wesker's and Nemesis' are all sets however. (some different sunglasses for Wesker would be some fun tho)

Like i said, it might like a contract thing, or something to do with the agreement, or these big name companies don't want their characters looking silly, which i would get, but Konami green-lit the princess heart skin for Cheryl and all of her cosmetics are locked too. which is crazy because 2 of her cosmetics are recolors that can only be equipped as sets.

i get if your hands are tied if this is a contract thing, or if it's a lot of effort separating cosmetics, but a push for less sets would be nice. I'd love to see an Onryo with a skull head and bloodied clothes, a Ripley in her alien 2 outfit with her original hair or a pyramid head with a searing knife, while wrapped in barbed wire and chains. it would be cool is all I'm saying.
