I think technically, yes. However, the one potentially redeeming point those have that these skins do not are that they’re actually a functional part of the game.

These skins serve no purpose, and have turned into the same loophole that those Japanese pachinko bars use to get around the gambling laws there - give a useless trinket as a prize and just coincidentally be located next door to a place that will buy certain useless trinkets for absurd amounts of money.
