Well, I wouldn't think that Odd's fine toys are actually toys, in the
sense that they are intended as an actual play item.  They are probably
just a type of collectible, that is, something fancy to be put on display.

Children usually end up wrecking their toys, either accidentally or
deliberately, and no parent would want to allow an expensive toy to
be quickly destroyed.

When I was a child I sometimes had cheap plastic trucks or military
hardware as toys.  Before too long each of those items would end up
being smashed with hammers or rocks or even set on fire.  Other children
(boys of course) would do the same thing.  For a little child, there is
no greater fun than the reckless abandon of destroying ones own toys.

Yes, Odd probably gouges his customers by charging an exorbitant price
for his creations and no purchaser would desire to see that beautiful
toy soldier, with all its fine workmanship, be senselessly dashed into
tiny pieces by the wanton desires of little junior.
