I think teemu8 is saying (s)he doesn't mind repainted bits, as long as the result is supposed to be someone else. It's the multiple versions of the same character (s)he's objecting too.
Sorry for putting words in your mouth if I'm wrong, that just seemed like what you were trying to convey. Certainly it's my opinion.

In 1983: Duke, Bludd, Doc, Gung-Ho, Wild Bill, Ace and Hiss Driver all reused parts from previous figures or shared parts from 1983.
Grunt, Grand Slam and Viper Pilot were all straight repaints. Only Airborne, Destro, Cover Girl, and Torpedo were entirely new sculpts for the year. That's a total of 4 entirely new sculpts for the entire calendar year. |

Exactly, don't give me 47 different versions of snake eyes, scarlet and duke. i'd rather have 47 differnt characters, Even if they're just repaints of older figures with new heads.
Granted, Atomic Radiation snake-eyes in the Mass device pack is cool. |

dont worry,I will be buying all the new sculpts I can find
your talking about the original 13 being re-used parts? yeah I remember that...but they were NOT repaints...after the 1st series who got used parts? I dont think many did, if none...in 82 I think it was a test to see how well these would sell so they re-used parts and once it took off ,tons more characters got introduced and no repaints! Sorry, I'll never support repaints as this new fan chosen box set will suck! I dont care if they geniusly re-use parts..just stop with the repaints and make NEW characters... If Hasbro can make a buck of an already tooled mold, and use that money to make new molds, they will do it. |

I don't mind repaints as long as they never make up an entire wave or as long as Hasbro releases a wave of entirely new figures every 3 months or so.
