Perhaps they're trying to get all the use they can out of these mediocre molds before they break so they don't have to store them, & perhaps could recycle the materials in the broken mediocre molds to make better molds later.....hopefully.Sabrblade wrote:Why are they rereleasing old figures into the movie line?

I never owned a Cybertron figure before, so I don't know the crappiness of the Cyber keys or the quality of plastic, so could you explain why the Thundercracker mold is horrible?

The Cybertron line as a whole was very, very good. Lots of great figures, and the gimmick was interesting without gettting in the way - the figures had lots of play value... but Thundercracker... jeez, his feet are so small he can barely stand up, he has a big dumb head that's way too big for the rest of his body and he has a giant clothes-pin for an arm. His gimmick isn't even interesting, his arm just opens a teeny little bit, just enough to shoot a missile out. Oh, and he has all these rubber bits in vehicle mode, and he just transforms into one ugly Decepticon.
If you never get a Cybertron toy, I suggest you go back and pick up a few of them (Armorhide, Downshift, Landmine, Shortround, Evac, to name a few...) but avoid Thundercracker.
