To be fair, as much as I agree overall, there wouldn't have been much "modelling" going on at this point. They're all pre-existing characters or assembled in the devs' version of the character creator from prebuilt pieces, then placed in an existing location with maybe a few pre-programmed emotes to perform.

I'm not saying it didn't take work to put the scenes together, but it would have been in the programming side rather than building anything new.
