Ouch. Perversely fascinating. In 2009 they bring out an up-market Growler as part of the Gibson USA GoM limited series and in 2011 the idiosyncratic Tobias heastock graces a budget bass. Way to go to not confuse the market.
I heard that Henry J has been no friend of the Tobias acquisition in hindsight and that it was him who stopped the Continental V singlehandedly which had been the brainchild of someone who had worked with Tobias before (there were no technical issues with that bass, it was strictly a matter of taste). So committing the Tobias brand to the Epi bin now shows at least some consequence.
