On the other hand you get Bumblebee, Mirage and now Jetfire getting fairly... bland finishes (notice how it's the Autobots in this camp?)

Conclusion: Takara favours 'cons.
I always liked that Henkei Bumblebee was more G1 inspired with the black thighs/limbs. I never understood why Classics had the silver. Beyond that, there's not much that could've been done with Bumblebee.

The original Starscream toy has a blue nose cone, but the cartoon model (which Henkei Starscream is more based on) has a gray nose cone.

I am too. Glad it's pre-ordered. Hasbro = Jetfire Takara = Skyfire.

Stop saying that! You'll make me buy Henkei Skyfire!

While I agree it looks bland compared to Hasbro's version, I love it 'cause it reminds me of Skyfire. The cockpit in particular looks great (I don't like the blue though). I don't think I'll be able to stop myself from buying that.
