Wow!! REpaints!! Wow More repaints!! Cool More repaints. Wow did I mention repaints. Wait thats a repaint version right??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA more repaints!! HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!
The New Line is out "TRANSFORMERS REPAINTS"
here is the sales pitch for them:
JUST WHEN YOU THINK YOU SPENT ALL YOUR MONEY ON THE SAME TRANSFORMER THAT HAS BEEN RELEASED 20 TIMES IN THE PAST DECADE..... WE BRING YOU TRANSFORMERS REPAINTS.... Then in the cartoon commercial Jetstorm is arguing with 4 repainted versions of himself about who is the real Jetstorm. LMAO!!!

SHUT UP OR GO AWAY!!!
Jeesus! could you can it about the repaints already??? Your blathering is boring and insipid. If you dont like repaints stop collecting Transformers. They are part of this toy's culture. I am one of the fans who is damn happy to have a lot of those repaints, including this set.
What I and many others would like to see go away from this toy line is the whining trouble making people like you who just want to put eveything down.
SHUT UP OR GO AWAY!!!

Hum, the repaints are a pb...As a collector, i want them, but Transformers are so many... I can't afford to pay for a toy i already have in another color...I prefer to buy a toy i haven't...
But i think nowadays, repaints are almost a tradition... Not only in TFs!

What you and tf811 may find funny is most of the orginal TFs were reissues of the Diaclone and Micro Change lines. So if you really dislike repaints and reissues, you may want to reconsider Transformers all together. lol

It's not the repaints I dont like. It is the lack of creativity. IN G1 they changed subtle things about the toy and also repainted it. They made it worth buying the repaints. I just dislike Hasbro. They are el cheapos. Takara is so much better, even their repaints are awesome. I just don't understand that Even when Takara uses plastic for tformers they still come out with a better looking toy. Have you seen their repaints of the minicon air teams. They are awesome. Damn Takara is awesome. Right on Takara!! Keep up the good work. Oh to all you peeps screaming dont buy it if you don't like it. I already have stopped. I returned all of the Armada garbage and have gotten credits for older toys. I am investing in Takaras DIECAST Alternators., The real Collectors items. I would rather put my money in their quality lines then fund the Hasbro Recycle program. I deal with two companies that buy direct from Takara. If anyone wants to know the names of the companies I will post them if you like. One company is in Chicago and the other is str8 out of Japan. Better then over paying off of ebay. All my Recent Transformers have came from these 2 places and it is still cheaper then buying from the Hasblow Co. And the quality exceeds by far. I am not trying to make negative vibes in these forums. I am trying to get you people to think about how bad we as Transformers collectors are being taken advantage of with these piss poor hasbro versions. The prices just keep going up and the quality keeps going down down down.... Hasbro will keep making this garbage unless we say something about it. I know it is a kids toy line, BUT The collectors fork the cash out to complete their collections. Not the parents of the kids that only wants 2 toys from the whole line. I'm sorry guys but we have to say something. Write to them and let them know:

As the other poster said, we know you dislike repaints and Hasbro. Let the repaints debate go already. Its gotten real old. This is not a Hasbro site. This is a fan site. People come here to have fun and relax with their fellow collectors. I and several others dont want to hear it again and again.
Get it off your chest! Punish Hasbro, not us. Send your comments to to them and be done with it. Cool? Nothing personal man.
