Hey bro, when you got work to do, you burn midnight oil. The job has to be delivered no matter the cost. I am human and I surely need to sleep. It is just that there is suddenly an urgency to deliver this week. That is why I am online for so long.

BTW, Polis...very cool G1 collection you have there

Me no sifu la kamkam, correction there

me newbie maaa
just started collecting end 2007
baru lagi maa

I don't think the collectors are so dumb now. They will surely go online and check. Hey, there are plenty of forums overseas that tell people which to buy and which you shouldn't buy. If the reissue sucks, do you think many collectors will go for it? I think they will still go for the original.

Look at G1 Bruticus and Encore Bruticus. Prior to the reissue, G1 Bruticus (complete with decals applied) went for somewhere between USD100 to USD180. After the Encore came out, the collectors who never owned G1 Bruticus before didn't even want to pick it up due to poor quality issues. As a result, the price of a G1 Bruticus shot up and nowadays can fetch up to USD250!

So, it is all about popularity, quality and demands. Affordability is secondary nowadays. People are willing to pay. You would be surprised.

Conclusion is that reissue may not degrade the value of the originals. It all depends heavily on the quality of the toys which many who want to collect will surely check them out first online. (Unless the buyers are uncles and aunties)
