It's kinda weird that Figuarts re-issues are just so rare that people can be conditioned into thinking a re-issue is a cashgrab.
Meanwhile Takara's re-issuing MP13 Soundwave and they've re-issued a metric ton of their other Transformers Masterpieces before, and this is a good thing because it provides collectors another chance to get their favourite figure without scalpers completely ruining everything. |

I don’t have the OG SS Kuuga so this is a great chance to add him to my main rider collection I just hope I don’t miss out on the preorders when they go up.

I'm bummed that this rerelease isn't the Kuuga version, but on the other hand I guess I save some money.

Nowadays? Almost nothing. The few things they do reissue are either repainted, retooled or rebranded. I guess they now have the mentality of going forward and either completely redo a character or if old sculpts are used at least change the paintjob and/or packaging. Quote:

Hold up, is SS Kuuga seriously that valuable? Agito must be the cheap one then.

A quick look on Mandarake gives me 18,000 to 20,000 JPY (aka $166-$184). So anyone saying this reissue is pointless when it's a third of the price of going market value is kinda missing the point.

This is literally the most validating reason to buy him.
