To say that doing a single toy in a 1987 colour scheme this year is to celebrate the thirtieth anniversary is ridiculous.
    Yikes all that is true! I guess the fandom wanting the particular deco for the last 10 years makes this more special than some others listed. Some homages were very much shoe-horned and none have gone to similar lengths of like incorporating a G1 headmaster into the design. It seems like extra effort has gone into this figure and that makes it feel more special than all previous exclusives to me. The Vector Sigma inclusion was similar but not quite in the same league.
