F4F probably did this as sort of a tease to generate hype for the Bayonetta line and slowly build up to the main statues from the franchise - don't want to blow their load too soon, metaphorically speaking.
I'm guessing the guns would be a tougher seller to collectors if they had released those after the character statues. This way, F4F can get these out of the way up front and generate sales off basically just one gun/base their company had to R&D for (and pump out 4 identical products w/ slight variations) - easy money.
I've been interested in a prop like this since I saw a similar (smaller?) one in another collector's display (i believe it was in another thread in this forum) - tempted to get one gun for my display but do not think I'm diehard of a fan to get all 4.
