    I don't mind repaints because G1 was, after all, based on them (okay, retools I guess). This doesn't mean I will buy them all though. I only get the ones I like or are a real different character. Bumblebee with a new hat is not really enough.

    What really bugs me about repaints now, though, is that they swap factions! I can understand Teletraan 1 scanning the same vehicle for a number of similar TFs within their own factions, and I know the new movies changed that a bit, but at least keep the same moulds on the same team!

    I would only buy a repaint if I liked dat mold and missed it da first time and da colours used isnt too bad, I wouldnt pay a higher price for it though, just think it's not worth it. With repaints, I seem to think most of da time they hav less paint applications than the original, which puts me off even further

    I passed up two opportunities in the past month to get 2007 Movie Fracture (Classics Mirage repaint) for $40 and I'm still regretting it now. . ... .

    Love the mold! Can't really justify $40 though. $30 (like SE Dragstrip) I have done. Only a little bit dissapointed
