Not convinced Perceptor is worth the rebuy.
And yet I want Hound, who also doesnt look that different.

Okay, so now I need to keep telling myself I alrady have a reissued Skywarp, I don't need a cartoon one.
I'll probably fail.

What's annoying is hearing on US podcasts all the time about how Starscream is clogging the shelves over there, yet we never had a sniff. He goes for twenty dollars new on eBay US, less than the postage to get one sent over here.
(And yes I know he's on Robot Kingdom Phil!)

I’ve been avoiding these reissues because I own all the ones released so far. But I’ve got a feeling I’ll be looking at these in 5 years and kicking myself for not getting them now.

Just buy them now. If you don't like them, you can sell them on in 5 years to the Johns that didn't buy them now. I've enjoyed handling them, a familiar toy in an unfamiliar colour scheme. And ones like Hound are much better in hand than pictures.

I haven't bothered with almost all of these Movie repaints, simply because of cost. They've fallen under the "would be nice" banner, but I spend too much on Transformers as it is.

I've often wondered about reissues.....Don't they drive down the price of the original 80's released figures?

Not that I've noticed. And these are sufficiently different to not affect them.

The old toys still retain value. Reissues often have differences (some small, some big), different materials etc. Plenty of folk do like to collect the original releases.

My word there's a lot going on here. Walmart 40th anniversary? Is this going to continue the movie repaints? Or are we down for another round of the same figures again back in their original colours?

Eeeeh mmmmm I like in principle making a 'cartoon soundwave' with flat rather than chrome plastic but that grey just looks cheap to me (like Hound again)

Obviously these have been reissued many, many times already, so plenty of opportunities to get them in the original toy decos, so this is good for those who wanted something more cartoony. But just not for me.
