They have been hinting very heavily that it will change its form on the full moon. If it does then this extra artwork (and presumably suite of animations) would have taken BFS a lot more time and effort than a usual dragon. They would want to get their money back on people paying for gems. If you've ever played a game like League of Legends where they release "skins" and the more things the skin changes about a character, the more it costs, then it's a similar priniciple. More man hours in design = greater cost, even if some people don't personally like the final result.
