Can't say firsthand what the reissue is like, but the original Optimus Primal was a fantastic playable toy and worth trying for the "deluxe" price it's now at.
In 1997 I was in Year 12 high school and I paid $50 for an original BW Primal at Kmart Kardinya. It was a very good toy both in terms of design and build quality, so well worth the $50 back then.
When Big W started selling the reissue Primal at the end of last year for $85 I "personally" found it to be acceptable (but maybe not for someone who didn't watch/enjoy BW 25 years ago). Then it dropped to $59 due to overstock so it was even better. Now at just $34 it's definitely a bargain, given that it's still a great toy.
Buy another one Kyle for MISB, or for the kids and say "This was my toy when I was young." $50 is $89 is today's money, so $34 is very good. Too bad I was out of Transformers before Beast Wars came along, so no interest for me. It's a shame that BW didn't do for Big W what the G1 reissues (Prime, Soundwave, cassettes, mini-cars) did for Kmart last year - I think only Prime, and maybe Soundwave, lasted till clearance despite the G1s being overpriced too.
That's what I did with the Screamer that was shelfwarming at Target for weeks. Amazon AU/The Gamesmen has Screamer at $14.95 currently (but there's shipping) and one Toymate in Perth has a sea of Kingdom Cores that must eventually go cheap like the sea of Siege Battlemasters also around. What to do with an extra Screamer? Spare? Plane mode only? Thundercracker custom (with no arm guns, ha ha)?
If you can find a leftover Black Zarak, Zing is clearing them at 199
