I think that sometimes too, but selling is a goddamned hassle and I'm sitting on enough toys in boxes without actively speculating/purchasing to resell.

He's saying that "random joes" on eBay seem to be sharing a like-minded speculation that the ultimate is what will be reissued, and as a result are trying to dump them while the price is up. He's right, and I'm seeing the same happen with the SE/SS figures using the "Arashikage Clash" molds.

Has there been any confirmation if the retro vehicles will be pre built in box like the 25th or more traditional like original 80s?

It's minus the Commando v1 head (go figure, since that's the card art they used), and it does appear to have some gray/silver paint applications where the Arashikage release was basically all black.

Thanks. Do you have both the Arashikage and original release to compare? Are those two exactly the same?

At the time the 50th was coming out, it was noted by Darryl DePriest or Mark Weber that any alterations to an existing figure- whether it be paint apps or accessories, constituted a new figure, per their marching orders from Hasbro. As such, they didn't rework any of the re-leases for budgetary reasons.

I do not have both versions, but they are the same.

The feet went from glossy to matte, the GI Joe unit tampograph was brighter, and the soles of the feet were smooth."

The Awe Striker seems to be back in stock, fyi. I was able to grab two. (One to open, one to keep boxed).

They must have stocked a ton, because I was able to order two last night.
