Re: What do you do with updated vs old figures?
I agree with the last 3 posts here, some I rotate in like the Combiner Wars Prowl and Smokescreen with Henkei Prowl and Smokescreen (sorry fun pub Bluestreak I don’t have you yet). I do like fiddling with Combiner Wars versions as it’s flip, flip, done.
Trademarking names and rising prices I think are going to limit the variety of future releases as well. Here’s to you Sky Tread? Who the hell is Sky Tread, I wanted Fly Wheels, lol. Poor guy, it’s too bad the duo con gimmick was’t more advertised. That is one character that I think would’ve been better served packed in his vehicle modes, now so many of him at my local Walmarts (and Hound too, I don’t know what his excuse is though).
I know getting my imports 10 to 12 years ago was cheaper than buying off the shelf now, I guess Hasbro has brought import prices to us even though out of most of the collectors I know only a few of us were dedicated to the Takara versions/collections.
I look at my Classics/Henkei seekers and their Titanium counter parts and think hmm what to do? Bite on the voyager size hoping Hasbro can make it through to the cone heads or stick with Tiny-Scream and his mates. I admit Scream looks odd to me with Mega-tron but he does match up well with Henkei Prime. Dilemma, Dilemma, lol.
