I think it'll be a black friday item so you won't have to pay $70 anyways.

I remember at Botcon Aaron Archer said Hasbro would be following Takara's lead on the reissues. What that means is anybody's guess, but seeing Prime up made a little more sense after hearing him say that. I think it means that for the 25th anniversary they'll be mirroring the Encore series (although that was never expressly stated). As long as Takara continues to make it easy for Hasbro, Hasbro will keep pumping this guy out.Evil King Macrocranioshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01693211146604544544noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37301459.post-89431117654319309602008-05-18T12:37:00.000-07:002008-05-18T12:37:00.000-07:00100% agree.

Perhaps it is the number of parts and cost (or lack of) in the original mold that causes them to continue to reissue it over and over. Follow the money....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
