    personally l really like the head and the leg "greebles". i do prefer a mix of toy and toon. its what my impression of sunstreaker is like. even as a kid i realized they didn't draw things in sometimes because it was easier and cheaper to not. i didn't take that to mean it didn't exist in the toon version...just it wasn't shown because of animators left off all sorts of details. the fact that cordon was never animated kinda makes these more toy specific details necessary. i wish he had bigger shoulder rockets too but oh well... yeah i definitelyh not a toon uver alles type.

    It’s so neatly organized. I wasn’t too keen on paying $139.99 + shipping so...

    I guess TakaraTomy couldn't care less whether it is a Diaclone cosplay or what so ever, is just out to try reuse a mold as many times as possible, to fully utilized a mold.

    Man, I would totally finally buy that Ironhide mold if they did that (and I totally want Deepcover and Spinout). MORE DIACLONE VERSIONS, PLEASE! :)

    I think the red Sunstreaker will come next summer. I don't think you let the 35th anniversary go past without paying homage to the toy that started it all, Diaclone Car Robo #1.

    Being that both Primal and Dinobot have a BW20 stamp, I wouldn't be surprised if the "anniversary"spills over into 2020.

    Could be. It’s already starting this year. Cordon’s box has the 35th logo on it.

    Needed to bump the box pic to see the 35th logo.

    Have we figured out how the light bar flips over? Or are we done speculating on that. It was really an interesting topic. I was the first person to say that the light bar will flip around on its own axis before the toy was shown. So if I’m right I’ll be happy knowing I should be a TT employ in another life haha

    Ahhh, those heady days when Masterpieces actually seemed like, well, Masterpieces instead of detail-less 3-dimensional Sunbow cells.

    I wish I could love this comment more. The current "masterpiece" toon style has gotten me out of Masterpiece Transformers. Huge step down, IMO.

    (i mean, i don't want these greebled up like Siege either. just the appropriate amount of detailing.)

    No, I don’t think anyone’s figured out how it flips over. I think they may have remoulded underneath the roof/chest, to allow room for the other lightbar underneath in both modes.

    Hmmm. I disagree with you. A gentleman’s bet then!
