HAHAHAHAHA! I was watching a Sunstorm on eBay and going to have a dip at it. Now I don't even have to bother. Absolutely. Great. News.

I almost bought a black Megatron a few months ago (it is still on my list to complete my TFs replica gun set), but this would make it a lot cheaper (if I could get it through customs).
I think there will be a lot of annoyed collectors who paid a fortune on limited edition Sunstorms (probably no more than 5000 made) and Black Megatrons (only 1000 made), to see a reissue of those limited edition toys.
I would have to think that there would be some difference between them, other than the packaging, so that collectors don't lose too much value in their 'rare' items.
I would have been more upset if I had bought that Black Megatron a few months ago, at the current price of about AU$280 (this reissue is listed at about AU$90).

I'm more concerned about the direction this is going. Black Megatron is on the really rare end of the limited edition scale, so it means TT could reissue any limited edition figure in the future (which I guess they already did with some of the 2001 ehobby Gen1 reissues that were also limited to 1000), just to make a sale. There aren't many limited edition figures that had smaller production runs than Black Megatron.

I may just hold off on the last few limited edition recolours in case Ehobby reissue more of them (I just bought Fire Guts God Ginrai, and am still after Black Hot Rod, Black Megatron, Black Starscream - yes, black recolours aren't my favourite, but still want them eventually).

Does this mean you are willing to get some of these figures in Kyle. I definitely want Sunstorm.

Awesome news!! I would love to get that black Megatron!

Already have Sunstorm, but I'm missing one of his stickers (it fell off). If anyone is interested in getting Sunstorm but have no intention of applying the stickers, please LMK and I'll be happy to buy the sticker sheet off you for a reasonable price.

Black Megatron does interest me though I must admit... hrmm... *rubs chin*

Oh yes this is great news.
So who here is going to do a group buy...?
