    I only buy originals if there is no KO version of it available. If there is, and it has been reissued, I'll go for that.

    Someone must have really put the demand in for an order to get a 2nd run done.

    I'd much prefer news of the next character in the line. Of course I'd love Trypticon, scorponok or devastator, but I'm hedging bets on sideswipe. Thrust would be sweet as though.

    Sometimes you can still stick to the original by buying variants though. I believe high quality knock offs of scourge were manufactured to replicate the sticker top original. You can quite simply track down and purchase the vintage moulded top variant instead without any worries of it being a crappy fake.

    On the top of my head I think the variants of the following are available for those worried about KO's

    - Cyclonus
    - Optimus
    - The Decepticon tapes
    - Metroplex

    Maybe others, but they don't come to mind right now

    Also, I noticed RK have the encore metroplex for $30US cheaper than BBTS. Not to mention the massive saving on shipping too. BBTS charge an arm and a leg in comprison and this fella is a big whopper in the box

    Yea, I just quoted their system of being US$ 92.88 INC SHIPPING.

    It's tempting to get one this time.

    the 2nd round won't be lower quality even lower than KOs.
