I like the nostalgia of the original reissue, the second has a more toon accurate look. This is what Newage in Legend scale collecting has us spoiled with being able to choose so many different decos of our favorite Transformers. Great review Jimmy, Thank you.
I love videos like these, they always take me back. I have the g1 and the 86 series, I love them both, mine is missing his blaster and I need a new sticker for the chest. If you can find it I recommend getting The ultimate guide to vintage transformers action figures book. It has tons of cool information, like commonly lost parts tech spec's and even what they go for. Be it loose open box or new in box ( at least when the book was printed in 2016 )
The original Blaster release had a darker grey colour that also had a random metallic paint swirl effect, and it still outshines the last Walmart reissue. I think if I never had the original toy, I'd go for the 40th anniversary because from a nostalgia of the cartoon. In term of preference, hard to say. I like both versions. I really do like the painted detail on the tuning knob on the 40th anniversary version As for Steeljaw, I think I prefer the new reissue because I don't have to worry about peeling stickers the original had.

Thanks for the insight! I agree about the painted dial. Nice touch!
I use to have Blaster. 😭😭😭😭😭
I still have my original cassette though
So glad to see Steeljaw wings are yellow because mine has some yellowing. 😂😂
That's hilarious! Blaster is awesome and I hope you can get him again. Stay awesome and thanks for watching!
