DnD Minis Look a Lot Like DnD 'Scape

So as I am looking through Augggies I come across new DnD figures that look like DnD 'Scape. Of course because they are. Is this dumb or what? To me it seems like WotC discontinued 'Scape to use the Minis they had ready for HS for DnD. Here are the Minis:

What exactly does this mean? It looks to me like another way WotC just quit HS because they didn't want to branch out of their mains. They even named most of the pieces after their original names. This makes me mad. :evil:

And there are plenty more just look around @ Auggies: DnD (http://www.auggiesgamesonline.com/DD_c_15.html)

Just FYI, those are all old DnD minis that they slightly altered and transferred into 'Scape, not the other way around.

Oh thanks they just looked like they were some of the newer ones that why I thought so. Now I really think WotC is lame because about 95% - 100% of the "Scape figures weren't even new. Bye.

Edit: This also brings me to a new point though, why wouldn't we, if DnD HS ever went out of stock and prices sky rocketed like they did with original Scape, buy these minis, and rebase them? For Cheaper. Though I still don;t like the idea of giving WotC my money.
