That's collector mentality in a nutshell. Too many collectors only want what they can't have precisely because they can't have it. If these were printed in decent numbers, they would languish for months or even years. Then, when they finally sold out, collectors would still scream about "scalping."

 

This is some pretty shitty artwork.

 

Has anyone bought the new variants? Can't find a single pic online that isn't a photoshop job or stock image and there are zero reviews on youtube.

 

My post right above yours

 

The original artwork is fine. This new version has some sort of ugly filter and photoshopped characters into the artwork. Ruins it.

 

Left/top is the original version from way back. I used it as a placeholder for the "Twisted Metal Magazine" project on these boards back at least a decade ago. I guess I understand jamming Bumblebee in there but WTF was the point of rotating Hound 90 degrees?


Edit: On closer examination...it's a redraw.

 

Yeah, Soundwave's gun has moved in front of Jazz's gun too.

 

The gun's in front, it's oriented differently, and his Decepticon logo is smaller. Jazz's face is different, Hound is turned, the reflection on Prime's grill is missing, other reflections are missing/different, the sun is smaller, there's extra fire between the ships, etc. It's either really heavily edited or they traced it with some alterations.

 

That's a really bad redraw....

 

Well, yeah, it undoubtedly came from the generation of artists that drew a big puffy robot and then decided which character it was going to be.

 

Let me rephrase, does anyone have a pic of the actual repress LP's? (The Vinyl, not the cover)

 

I can’t get back into vinyl
