MOD Should we allow posts of more modern '80s toys'? (Repaints, Customs, Re-Productions)
Sorry I haven't got around to this until now, but I want to ask the community what they would like to see in the sub.
There is already a flair users can tag their posts with if it is a RE-PRO but should we just *stop* these kinds of posts in general?
I am ok with it personally, (so long as it fits the rules) but this sub is for the members, not the mods. Keen to hear everyone's opinions.
UPDATE
Ok, well, the results are in.
I will update the rules to reflect the direction and keep an eye on posts that don't comply. Existing posts for re-pros can stay, currently, but I will look at cleaning up the sub in the future.
If we aren't happy with the outcome or you feel you didn't get a chance to vote, we can look at another vote down the track.
Thank you to those who contributed and voted :)

1987 Found some Dino Riders today
My brother found this score at a shop today and I nabbed it up. All are complete minus one gattling gun tip for Rex. My brother did have the Rex when we were kids. Rex's armor has gone from silver to bronze. Im not sure if that's a known issue. I assume it is.

Somewhere in the 80s Cowabanga! Found my old Turtles Goops frisbee!
Loved the Turtles as a kid, and Raphael was always my favorite. Somehow my parents got me Michelangelo though. Didn't matter, it was a Turtle and I played so much with it! It is still flexible, though not as much as I can remember at least. Some wear n tear but that's to be expected.
Found some info on this:

I always called him Timmy, he was a jerk, and he tried to take over the town, I think most of us used him as the bully, I guess that's what the company intended for. such a classic!
