This question is for those of you who bought Masterpiece Hound (whether you still own it or not): if HasTak were to release the toy again but with superior QC (no brittle plastic), would you purchase it again? Just curious to see if it would be worth HasTak's expense to try this.

Voted no, but only because my MP collecting and interest has dwindled down greatly.
If I were interested in having a mostly or entirely complete Autobot cast I would repurchase Hound.

I would, but that is cause I am 'mostly' collecting MPs

Not sure I can actually vote in this one... Mine is still MISB. :/

Not sure. Got two displayed both in good health, but knowing how fragile they are I?d probably buy a reissue with fixed plastic.

Voted No only because my MP's are sealed, but then again, if it were cheap enough I *may* buy a second to Fiddle with...

Yes, but only if the ***** mint green on his side mirrors was chromed, also.

Sadly, I actually would. The mould is absolutely gorgeous. But since my armature finally fully broke a few months ago (the peg is no more but there is just enough left to fit in the hole, with the side tab helping to hold the rocket launcher in place), I dare not transform him. And I would like to - so a good plastic version would be welcomed. But I don't think a reissue would happen. And while hoping for pies in the sky, I'd also expect Habro to give a redeemable, partial discount to those who originally bought it.

Schroedinger's GPS*. The toy is both broken and unbroken. ;)

(*Green Plastic Syndrome; but let's face it, GPS isn't exclusive to gold coloured plastic; there are other toys with brittle plastic of different colours)

Maybe Hasbro could release a cheaper version with improved plastic. They could easily reduce the cost by not including the plethora of bonus content that Hound comes with. And Hasbro has been known to do this before (e.g. MP3).
