It's either that, or spend hours of time scouring the internet or Ebay for loose parts or trades.

As Archangel said, it's not all that hard to find recent BAF pieces on eBay.

ToyBiz ran the line for 4 years.

If ToyBiz never died and had been doing Legends for the now 15 years the line has been going, you can bet they would have fallen into this problem of repeats and repaints.
