How much of your G1 collection is reissues?

[Megatron]

Being a completist I like to collect both. However, they are distinctly separate categories for me so I won't ever say, "I have a G1 Starscream" when in fact what I have is an Encore. I will say, "I have an Encore G1 Starscream" to clarify, otherwise I think it can be misleading. I undestand that many collectors consider them the same in many respects, but I don't. So if I proclaim for example that I have a G1 Megatron, then what I mean is I have an original G1 Megatron from 1984.

So I don't really like it when someone says they've got a particular G1 toy (without clarifying further)... but later I find out it's actually a reissue. It's technically a G1 toy sure, but to me when I hear someone say they own one I always think, "ooh... a vintage G1 toy!" So I agree with shape; the historical aspect of the originals puts them into a class all their own and is one of the best things about them.

So as I mentioned, the only G1 reissue I own at the moment is an Encore Starscream (though I plan to also own an original G1 Starscream). Not because I don't like reissues - I do - I'm just a relatively new collector and still have a lot of catching up to do.

My reissues where I do not have originals are:
1984 Jazz - TFC and Commemorative Series
1984 Prowl - 1990 Classic reissue
1984 Sideswipe - 1991 Classic reissue
1984 Megatron - 2001 reissue (used to have original but it got stolen)
1985 Red Alert - Commemorative Series reissue
1985 Smokescreen - TFC reissue
1985 Tracks - 1991 Classic reissue
1985 Perceptor - TFC reissue (offloaded original to another OTCA member after getting reissue)
1985 Ultra Magnus - Commemorative Series reissue (original was stolen)
1985 Sky Lynx - Encore reissue (original never sold in Australia)
1986 Galvatron - reissue & eHobby (original stolen)

I'm sorry to hear you had a few originals stolen... man that's a really low act. Did this happen recently?
