1986 was the year that Hasbro started doing repaints (Mission Brazil) but they didn't really get full into it until '88-'89 (Tiger Force, Night Force, Python Patrol, Slaughter's Marauders and more Night Force). I didn't mind it back then cause I liked different uniforms on my troops. Now they will repackage figures in a different line with no significant differences. Do we include those in the numbers?

While technically repaints, they were still distinct characters (or troop types at least). I guess the repaints I am thinking of are more along the lines of blue snake eyes and black snakes eyes in the exact same mold (or black snake eyes with a ripped shirt!) or black snake eyes with HoH gear...
All basically the same figure, and all the exact same character. Seems wrong to count all of those. I think that variety of repaint is a whole separate class. Just my 2-cents worth...

Anyway...More to the point, I am not claiming straight-up repaints did not exist in both places. Rather, I am stumping for their removal from the counts for *both* time-spans. That will give us a more apples-to-apples comparison.
