Not really, but Matty does make extensive use of their existing bucks with minimal remold between different releases in an attempt to keep costs down on stuff like MOTUC. Please note that I said "an attempt."

The term "buck" goes back about as far as action figures themselves; it was used in industry as far back as the original 1/6th GI Joe toy.
