You just have to wait for the sales...

I compared the pics at BBTS with mine on display. Only differences i saw were: On Black Canary, her bodice looks more glossy on the new one and her base is thinner and looks less transparent than the original. I don't see any differences on Huntress at all.

Those are promotional mock-ups. If you look at recent re-releases, only Starfire appears to be identical to the first release. The others have had different colored bases, with Raven's dress getting a complete color change.

Batwoman didn't have much difference. They just made the red areas a little more metallic. Raven's dress on the first release was wrong to begin with. I can see why they changed that. Different color bases are not enough to sway people to buy these again. I don't forsee Black Canary being any different since they made an exclusive version to begin with.

I don't think they're trying to get buyers of the 1st ones to buy these, they're probably more targeted at new collectors just getting into Bishoujos… They probably notice the price going way up on eBay on some of these and decided to re-release them to cash in...

If you read the thread, you'll see that a forum member did actually complain that she liked the re-released Zatanna more than the first one.

If the new Catwoman were to stand would she be as tall as Canary and Huntress?
