You do know those "crappy repaints" are done so that they can have more money to make all-new moulds, right? Without them, new moulds wouldn't be as cost-effective, and we'd see less figures, with less detail and poorer engineering. And some fans to appreciate the homages. This isn't anything like that at all. This is done out of lack of the option for anything better. Why make a whole new body when you just have to retool everything that's different? And these are figures fans demand, since DCUC is a collector-aimed line, wheras collectors make a small, small fraction of a fraction of Transformers sales. Comparing the two is like comparing apples to Bill Murray.
