Lego minifigs are just Funko Pops.
You collect for the characters, to have all in one unified style, rather than for the figure itself. If you're buying a set for an expensive minifigure, why would you just buy the mafex or shf of that figure? They really are just glorified funko pops.
When i was a kid, we had castle and space police and even power miners, but they don't have marketable characters, so lego killed them so they could sell glup shittos from star wars, like ahsoka.
