They do this in any realm they enter. Books, movies, comics, video games, food...etc. they never create anything original they always just "reimagine" something, which almost always makes it worse than it already was.
Dealt with alot of these types about a decade ago in motorcycling, when cafe racers built from old japanese UJMs were all the rage. It was basically what you said, 30 to 40 year old jap bikes aping 1950's british bikes, held together with Home Depot brand fasteners, and going for new bike prices.
The bright side, I was able to make a little money finding donor bikes in small towns for them to butcher.
