I looked more at what's being released and yeah there's a pretty big divide in terms of quality items. The reboot is getting action figures and redesigned Lego sets and cosplay items. But don't worry classic fans you wont have an itchy back and oh look how cute these emoji things are. I mean we've just recently within the past few years after 30 years gotten movie likeness figures and cosplay items (Matty Stuff, DST) but now it's looking like the classic stuff is being downgraded to crap you find at a gas station or a gift shop.
But Neca 1/4 scale Slimer and Stay Puft, Vinimates, GB Monopoly, and Diamond Selects line up for the rest of the year and a sweet diorama (GB 2 mentioned before reboot figs). Plus they just started the year with one of coolest Lego sets ever. Yeah, if you ignore all of those awesome things your point is valid, but, really, Reboot GB had a smaller showing.
