Most reused molds

What, no Black repaint?

Making new Transformers molds is rather expensive and so Hasbro and TomyTakara try to use each mold as often as possible to cover their costs and making their creation profitable. And then there are molds that reused more than other molds you will find these, their original use and all their reuses in this list. To be presented in this list a mold must have at least 3 different uses be they redecoes, retols or reissues if they are different from the original release.
