These are reapints of the originals, and in my Opinion, pale in comparrison to the Reborn versions, yet if you want a completelyt Nostalgic trun and a Gimmick riddled toy, these are it!!! I will buy them, if nothing else then to complete my collection..

They've done the BW Reborn set without masks in show accuate colours, they did the RM versions in flat toy accurate colours, they then did them in colours close to the ones they used for the reborn set and now they're doing the original moulds with masks in colours similar the the second RM versions! Why, what is the point?

It's like with G-1 if Takara had released a Reborn Convoy and Megatron with show accuracy, and then a couple of years later released the original G-1 toys with a cartoon accurate paint job.. same difference just it's Beast Wars instead of G-1..

Errmmm...I know! I really wish you were less condescending in pointing out the obvious. I am a Beast Wars fan so Im not quite sure where you are going with your G1 comparison however if Takara did the same with G1 Convoy and Megatron I'd be saying the same thing, what's the point?

Me too I just question why they have repainted the original moulds rather than just reissue the BWR figures or the original figure with original Deco. It just seems a little pointless to me.
