So, hey, getting back to the "no accessories = no interest in buying" thing for a second, if that's cool.
For me, I don't think a lack of accessories in a reissue is disqualifying. My SHF purchases are little trophies (I watched this whole series!) that go up on a shelf in a cool pose. After that, my physical interaction with it is around zero, not counting picking it up if it tips over. I just like looking at 'em, you know? Most accessories are something that just stay in a little box, something I now have to store in a closet or a drawer. Tamashii deciding to do a smaller box with just a figure in it, maybe a base or a single weapon, I'm totally onboard with that. Plus, it seems ideal for the fanbase that doesn't want to see an original purchase devalued, because, hey, that original one comes with a whole bunch of accessories. Best of both worlds, I'd think.
And, as a Transformers collector, one of the most frustrating elements of higher-end official figures is the amount of weird shit they come with. A swarm of hands (that's the proper term, right, a swarm?), multiple faces, six different things they can hold, some deep-cut reference from one episode.. all that
stuff
makes a single figure cost, like, who knows how much more, and it feels too weird to throw it out so now you've got a medium-sized box of ephemera piled up somewhere. I'm honestly a fan of Tamashii reoffering older figures, bare bones, at a steep discount off of more definitive releases. For my style of collecting, it's something that I appreciate.
