It sucks.
nuV's more mature than 80's V. But it still engaged in retardations. Its tone isn't as cheesy as the old one. The old one had a certain "tackiness" to it.
But 80s V is nostalgia for folks of a certain age, along with G1 TF, 80s GI Joe, He-Man, She-Ra, Thundercats and Jayce & the Wheeled Warriors.
