I know how you feel. I just got a rerelease Lagoona because I thought I liked her better than the original based on photos, but when she actually arrived, I found I didn't like her as much as I thought I would. I think I'll end up keeping my original, wonky eye and all. For one thing, she has much fuller hair, whereas my rerelease has really thin, scraggly hair with a much smaller fringe in the front, and her eyes are more froggy than the original's. The only problem with my original is that her left eye is slightly higher than her right.
