Just ignore the grumpy old-timers, of course you wouldn't know about the vintage toys. What I think is neat is that with each iteration I (and others) think "eh, I don't need a new Gam, the one I have is fine and probably couldn't be improved upon anyways. And then wham-pow! Hasbro knocks it out of the park with an impossibly good-looking figure, wayyy better than the old "just fine" stuff.
