Which wouldn't really be that difficult to do ^^; They've added copies of gear to Mogstation before (old Xmas outfit, made untradeable to prevent people from selling them on to others), so it's not unprecedented.

But I agree that it would be suitable for Gold Saucer; considering how eager that reporter seemed to be during the event, it wouldn't be too out of the blue to have them go "well, we (read Manderville family) managed to borrow/buy them off an adventurer, and made replicas so we can make loads of money and draw even more people to our casino. win/win for us" ^_~
