Yes, but don't forget that repaints with retooling are cheaper to produce than brand new molds! Repaints are a part of Transformer tradition. I say that if it gets us more unique characters and fleshes out the 'universe', bring on the repaints Hasbro!

On top of what Autobot Strider said, Ser-Ket is actually in the Transformers: Prime fiction. Ripclaw is not (yet). Such a repaint makes sense, unlike Lazerback and Vertebreak.

Well, Like In G1 For Instance. Even Though They Were Combiners That Merged Together To Form Predaking,, All Of The Predacons Were Different. There Was No 2 Predacons With The Same Mold. I Think It Should Still Be That Way. But, Times Have Changed, And We All Know That Hasbro Doesn't Do Things That Way Anymore. In Some Cases, Repaints Are Very Good. Depending On The Figure It's Being Used For. But In This Case, With Predacons, I Don't Like Seeing Repaints. That's Being A Little Too Cheap.

Why do you double-post everything? I can understand an occasional glitch, but for you it's like clockwork.
