I tried to give away a loose G1 Headstrong for free once. Nobody was interested and I think I had to coerce someone just to take it off my hands.
Ahh... the days when I literally could've give away a G1 Predacon.
P.S.: something else that I like about the reissues is that they're die-cast metal. The overwhelming majority of G1 Predacons are plastic, the die-cast versions are extremely rare and may sell for even more of a rip-off price than the plastic G1s. With reissues you're getting the die-cast versions at a much better price.
