    Often, seeing prices go up (on eBay, for instance) will show a manufacturer that a re-issue would be worth doing.
    That's why there was a re-issue of BadCube Brawny (going for over $250 at one point), and FansToys Phoenix (going for over $400 at one point).

    Forget it, it is just the G1 OP that was reissued some times ago!

    Do you think PE would ever do another run of Ginrai red version?

    Let's hope so. I really regret not getting it when it was new. PC-16 goes for WAYYYyyyyy too much money now.

    So I managed to break the peg holding one of the smokestacks in place while rotating it for transformation. I picked up a bootleg copy of the Ultra Magnus version thinking I could swap the chest piece and paint it red. If anyone has any other ideas for a repair I'm open to suggestions.

    Not that he looks bad without the stacks in robot or chest mode - it's mainly the truck mode that it looks wrong.

    Or better yet, if there's an inexpensive replacement option; either a reissue by PE themselves (the optimal solution) or a bootleg.

    I even considered getting a second Jetpower Revive to swap the arms, and replace the smokestacks that way, but that's a rather expensive alternative.

    You're a gentleman and a scholar. Even if you come up empty, I still appreciate you checking. :D

    I wish this set would be reissued, even the little Powermaster is getting pricey... odds aren’t good though.

    This does need one more reissue, the LG power master set is still available. I got mine last Black Friday and PC16 was sold out then.

    Has anyone managed to find KOs of PC-16 on either Taobao or Aliexpress?

    Weirdly, the Ultra Magnus version of this was KOd but not the REAL one.

    No. Probably because there isn't a KO.

    Is PE-dx10g compatible with God Ginrai?

    Does that set work without the chestplate and wings? I'd wanna stop short of the God Armor and just make Super Ginrai.

    Yeah, I've seen that Magnus version. That's why I was hoping they'd done the regular version as well.

    No. Pe-dx10g has his own trailer that can transform into the super god ginrai/jinrai armour on it's own
