Lego posted images of the new Blacktron Renegade for $99 bucks, it's not
a bad bit of nostalgia for the price.

I'm looking forward to it, but not as much as I'd hoped I would when
I first heard the news. The lack of a cargo pod in the middle really hurts it,
I think. You don't have the same number of modules to reconfigure that the
original had.

Watch the whole vid, it gets worse
You have to admit the all black is really cool, and the big ‘B’ is kinda dorky
and childish😅

I'm the complete opposite. I always thought the Blacktron I minifigures were
completely boring in all black and just a few printed white lines. I love the
color scheme of the sets though...the black, yellow, and trans-yellow, and trans-red
are awesome together. I just wish they would have brought some of that splash
of color to the minifigures.

Also, all trans-neon colors are my favorite colors, so the later Blacktron II
stuff really hits all of the sweet spots for me with better minifigures and a
cooler color scheme. I just really hope they reimagine it someday along with
Ice Planet, but now that trans-neon green and trans-neon orange have both been
discontinued, I don't have much hope for either of them anymore.

True, it’s just for the bad guys black is more intimidating than a big ‘B’ on
your shirt
