    Why? The green is just as good.
    Yellow/orange would be good, but it doens't bother me.

    IMO it is pretty useless if you already own the first 'normal' encore re-issue or the original G1 in good condition and a cartoon head is not enough to encourage me to buy it. A yellow/orange release would have justified it more.

    Oh, forgot that I'm the first one, sorry.

    I reckon they should've released this new retool set in yellow or orange as a limited exclusive. The accessories are cross compatible anyway. I still would've loved to see an eHobby exclusive version of this set in its Diaclone colours with new bios. Ah, how I miss those days.

    That would have worked too because it would be different. With this new 'retool' you are only getting a new head, everything else is more or less the same.

    The Anime head one seems to have a brighter, more yellowy green to it, as can be seen on TFW.

    Yeah, there are distinct colour differences between the two reissues. Still not nearly enough to convince me to buy it though. (-_-)

    I haven't got any Devys yet, so this may be good, seeing as it seems like a cheaper option. Doesn't look too bad.

    Yeah, I'd probably get it if I didn't have any other version of G1 Devastator. Hopefully it won't suffer from the same problems as the previous reissue.
