They are most definitely not factory-painted units. So they are indeed "custom painted".
As for "why", I don't know. Perhaps those were units that weren't available on Katos first run of ACes, I'm not sure.

I bought this one last week at a steal (in my opinion):

Needs numberboards and then off to Lee's for a DCC job.
