1st issue were actually Takara Diaclone pieces that were just repackaged, later on they retooled the molds for Hasbro. While I wanted to pickup some of the dinobots I also just never go around and don't have the need now but they could have been from the later retooled Hasbro molds that were again retooled.
Now on another note, the Roller I had when original had hard plastic wheels that snapped onto the car, did they change the design later on? It was also fun being in NYC when these came out, you could get the boots really cheap and they were still diecast.
The one I remember most was the Omega Supreme, found a boot of that one, the art on the box was exactly like the original release of the toy. Wow they were really pulling at straws to find any robot to toss into that line after the first line launched and they exhausted Takara, going to some rando Japanese toy company for Shockwave was a real stretch and that was bootlegged so many times its not even funny, I think Radioshack even had a boot of that one.

Although I think some of those have received a small resurgence thanks to an orchestrated effort to bring them back into consciousness, I think shows like UFO Warrior Daiapolon and Mechander were recently shown in re-runs on Japanese television. I think Ginguiser might've been one as well. If you think vintage Transformers are expensive, you should see the prices on stuff like the Jumbo Machinder Spazer from Grendizer, I recall somebody having paid a five figure sum for one of those. Hell, even some of the modern releases have gone up in price like crazy. Even relatively mainstream releases like some of the Soul of Chogokin entries seem to return to their OOP prices despite multiple re-releases, like Godmars or Combattler.

I just remembered that we had this thread, and I remembered an anime that I actually dropped less than ten episodes in because I realized, this was really, really going to suck. The anime in question was Ginga Densetsu Weed and it managed to tick just about every box on the list of story tropes I hate. I actually ended up spoiling myself, deliberately, just to see where this was going to go because my gut told me it was not good, and you know what, I was right, what I read indeed sounded like absolute trash and I am so glad I didn't waste my time watching the rest of it.
