While this new colors certainly will compete with hasbro gift set. I'm
still getting the hasbro version due to the much cheaper price. I
don't like paying the scalper prices for anything. I'll only pay
scalper prices for for takaraka G-1 reissues & desired colored items I
really,really want like takara's version of armada tidalwave called
shockwave in proper cartoon colors.
it's a safe bet to assume,eventually Hasbro will recolor that EZ/
Legends size devestator in either G-1 Green or G-2 yellow.
t.k.
It's an excuse to make people spend money, maybe? You know there are
collectors who'll buy this version just because it's a "homage". Or is
that "an homage"?
Gotta admit, some of the vehicles do look a lot more like the G1
versions thanks to the new coat of paint. Maybe (in case Devastator is
a shelfwarmer) they're hoping people will buy this version rather than
the multi-coloured one? I know I would, if I had the choice.
