    Not that many. And they seem to be minor adjustments made during production rather than major retooling to make a new character. Thing is that for Transformers Hasbro just released most of (they left out police Sunstreaker and blue Bluestreak) the repaints that Takara did in Diaclone. With revised stickers in all cases. But if not for Hasbro repaints there would not be Skywarp, Roadbuster, or Whirl.

    I see only one other person in this thread who actually agrees with you.

    Thankfully, diehard Geewuners represent only a small percentage of the fandom. Unfortunately, they're also usually the most vocal too. But just because someone is louder doesn't automatically make them right.

    It's all opinion anyway.

    No, what you actually said was:
    This doesn't even come close to proving your point that "the original is the one and only." It just shows what TF toys are in the highest demand on ebay. And they're in demand because they're vintage toys and thus prized collectibles.

    But that in no way proves that G1 is "the one and only".

    G1 is merely "the one" because it was the first. But being first doesn't necessarily make it "the best".

    And everything else is just opinion. You cannot prove conclusively that G1 is "the one and only" because fan opinion does not equal fact. Even fan polls won't prove anything except to those who voted in them.

    If something has the most sales, that makes it the best. It's that simple.
    I'm not asking anyone to change there opinion, and I'm not insulting anyone and calling them stupid, like is happening to me, not by you but by others.
    I have a strong opinion on the subject.

    *faceplant with sigh* Here we go again.

    At least have the common decency to type "G1" - or does the phonetic spelling really make it THAT much more special?

    you, sir, fail to understand sarcasm.



    can we all let this geewunner be? :D 

    i'm off to watch the series that revived the TF franchise in the 90's which helped to keep Transformers and thus TFW2005 by extension alive: Beast Wars.

    goodbye! :D

    i'm very sure ebay's the one and only place where tfs can be bought.
    i'm very sure ebay's the one and only place where we can analyze sales figures and make a conclusive statement.

    and i'm sure G1 figs are still in retail so we don't have to get them through the secondary market.

    Tela_Tran2, you're THE MAN. :D
