    i think if he could combine then we wouldn't of gotten all that paint. i'd rather have the paint.

    It was stated that some of the Hobby magazines were using the "Hasbro version", but if the March 2015 Dengeki Hobby scans on Seibertron are anything to go by, that means they might be using the initial, unpainted stock photos we got back during BotCon.

    'course, not all of them will be using those pics.

    Looks great, but I'll hold out for the Takara version.

    cause people would rather pay more for the takara version for the status, even if it looks worse.

    I'm not sure I see any deficiencies in color scheme, paint apps or amount of detail where a Takara version would even look better and be worth paying a premium for. So it really comes down to whether this mold floats your boat or not. Personally I really like it.

    Silver paint is far more tamed in person. Looks good.

    I feel like once apon a time, someone made a "leg day" joke, probably on TFWiki, and now nobody knows how to use it properly.

    "Missing leg day" implies that he has no legs.

    Dude! Quite! You can't say that a Hasbro version is good! You might kill some whiny fan boy by brain embolism!

    Others and myself buy Tamara because of an overall tighter handling of quality control, tightness of joints, and more often then not an alt mode that tabs\pegs together more solidly. We buy for the paint apps about only half the time.

    As for your comment; work hard save up, or find a better job instead at jealously taking pop shots at those who posses what you do not. Comments like yours make you seem small.

    On topic: as of now, we do not have an official side-by-side so I'm on the fence until we have one. No one is going to have the answer of which is better until we do so we wait.

    Dont care what people say making video review doesnt have to be good, by popular video reviewer on youtube would have like to see video review first then pictures after video review doesnt have to be good, bad as long go over all things people like in video review.

    Thanks for sharing

    Articluation wrist, kneew, hip joint, wrist, elbo, shoulder, possibly waist, head little move ment to go up and down no ankle movement
    By judge of pictures with no finger movement add to it

    Takara uses pictures of the Hasbro version for advertisement at the moment, they haven't shown the final product yet.

    Too big and the shoulders and legs look wonky. I don't think I'm buying this.

    He looks very nice. This cam be my stand-in MP Megatron until I get a better version. Might even make him an autobot.
