I gotta know, bludgeon or Banzaitron

Erland · 05-06-2012, 02:59 PM

I gotta know which one ya'll prefer.

I just got Banzaitron for $24 complete, in open box, no instructions from the comic shop around the corner.

I've satisfied by him but, I want to know which one ya'll prefer..

and does Banzaitron have any 3rd party upgrades? I see they were supposed to have some, but I can't actually find them..

In a perfect world I would say get movie bludgeon with the upgrade kit and botcon banzai tron

I prefer Bludgeon. Mainly because he was one toy I wanted back in the day but never got. Banzai-tron is good too but on the ROTF mold, the colors just dont look as good.

Personally I prefer the mold as Bludgeon. And for Banzaitron I've been using the Botcon version which really suits him. Not sure about upgrades for Banzaitron though.

the mold is bludgeon, anyone else is shoehorned imo

Karhukjnsi · 05-06-2012, 03:21 PM

I like it as either, to be fair, I have both, and I like both color schemes, if anything, maybe Banzai-tron's a little more.

Bludgeon; I just prefer his deco

Bludgeon

I know some peeps say BT is better, but I just cant wrap my head around it. Something about the color choices on bludgeon are like Peas and carrots. The green and orange go together SO well, That normally I would have disassembled him by now and painted all the "stupid colored parts green"...NOPE...not with Bludgeon...its just a KICK ASS combo all around. The ONLY thing I wish they did was put a green hard plastic handle so the main gun looks uniform. But That dont even bother me much.

Bludgeon FTW

I can really appreciate the attention to the samurai nature of both characters, but the mold was made specifically for Bludgeon, and I feel mostly the same was a brr-icy here.

I like and have both. But I have to agree that it's a Bludgeon mold. If i had to go one, i would say him.
