    Though the re-releases are welcome I'd also like to see new reissues.

    liegeprime: I'd say that Encore Predaking should be die-cast metal considering that the previous reissue was metal. I'd be surprised if it were plastic.

    I thought they were re-releasing the same toys as before, not repackaging as encore.

    I'm not saying it's a repackage of leftover stock - I'm saying that I'm expecting them to follow the same standards with their previous reissue as has been the standard with past re-reissues (e.g.: every reissue of Hot Rod has had metal toes etc.). I would be surpised if re-reissue Predaking was plastic or if re-reissue Metroplex had plastic tyres and no chrome on the thighs. Whether they'll live up to my expectations or not remains to be seen.

    Although it's a moot point for me as I have no intention of getting these re-reissues in any case.

    Thank the gods,
    The prices for Predaking and Sixshot atm are astronomical and out of reach for some.

    At least peeps who missed out for whatever reason the first time get a second chance. I won't be squandering this opportunity.

    ...and at least it's not stuff that's been way overdone in terms of reissue like Laserbeak. Mould degradation FTL.

    Already have the reissue Predacons when they first came out and have an original G1 Sixshot so those two are out for me.

    I've already got a complete G1 Sixshot and Predaking. But the temptation to buy a MISB Predaking is growing....

    I am happy they are re-releasing these toys so that everyone can get an opportunity to get the toys. However I won't go for any since I already have said toys in very good condition with the exception of Primus. Although initially I had no interst in Primus, it has recently a desire to get him has been growing.
