    it's not new.. just painted differently and i think she is worthy, since she is not only the more accurate to the comic in both robot and alt mode, takara also fix some of the problem that make people avoid the hasbro version.

    Looks sooooo good, but after getting the Hasbro version I'm not sure I want to get this as well. Stop making this so hard! I'm trying to cut back on my TF spending! :lol

    My Takara windblade has one issue my Hasbro one didnt. The little parts on the wings that peg onto the jet near the cockpit have no problems connecting on my Hasbro figure, but the left one will not stay in on the Takara version at all.

    Oh my goodness, she is fantastic! So glad I waited for the Takara version, the extra paint really makes her work.

    There's something really weird about those eyes from a diagonal. I think it's the sculpt thought

    This really is a pretty neat design. Imagine if Hasbro made more new fembot characters of their own accord rather than because the fans forced them to. Strongarm is a good start, but need more!

    She is pretty much as perfect as she could be without remoulding a few bits. I did swap the US and TT versions front landing gear, so it conceals better. Beyond that she is a delight.

    Got mine today, she looks great. Unfortunately I can't say the same about her thigh and shoulder joints. They are loose, but I heard clear nail polish does the trick. Is this true?
