Sword and gun.

But this is clever, and I'll give points to Takara Tomy. His deco is similar to Depthcharge (and Gigant Bomb, who was a Dreadwing redeco) who ALSO had a shark gun.

Seriously, given I don't have Dreadwing yet, I'm now very much considering the TT version on the strength of that micron.

Hm... But for show accuracy... I kind of want the sword. I may actually go US version on this one, which sucks because the TT ones are much easier for me to get...

Need closer-up pics. Plus, the microns tend to trickle out as single-pack versions sooner or later. So... I can get the micron some other way

On an unrelated note... Someone at TT is having a serious love affair with Ratchet's micron. There are like 400 versions of him coming out so far (Ok - maybe just 9 - but that's a LOT for one micron...)...

This is good news, gonna have a whole pack of these seekers by the time all things are said and done.

Damn it, I have been thinking of dumping these damn import figures.

Yeah the US version looks like the way to go if you want a more show accurate figure. Im in the same boat as you Bravemax

Hmm. Wonder if Orion Pax is unmasked? I do like the FE deluxe Optimus and think it's underrated/overlooked. Looking forward to Orion Pax!

*sigh*

Hasbro store exclusives - no real trouble.
Takara exclusives - no real trouble.
Takara store exclusives. - nuisance.

Thundercracker, and sooner than I thought! YEZZIRRRR!!! He'll go perfectly with my FE Starscream and AM Skywarp.

Well, that brought me right down. I hope there are reasonable ways (BBTS) to get ahold of him. I don't feel like playing with the 'bay waiting for someone to put him up for sale.
