As an owner of an original set of Mego KISS figs.......this so infuriates me.
I hate that KISS decided to kill the collector market by going back to the original molds. But then again, Gene Simmons doesn\'t care about the fans, he cares about himself. At least George Lucas had the decency to not use the original molds.
The only thing I can salvage out of all of this is the fact that the hair looks pretty bad on these new ones. At least for Peter and Paul (esp. Paul) Gene\'s looks pretty identical to the original.
Here\'s the new set:
