    I really wish the MST ones had that bit at the wingtips that pokes up, like the New Age one does. That's the only thing making me like NA's more than MST's. That's pure G1.

    NewAge is the colored prototypes on display.

    MST only had grey protos on display.

    That and they are drastically different looking sculpts.

    Seeing those side by side looks like MST of course has the ab crunch and New age doesn't
    New age has wheels behind the arms MST doesn't
    New age looks to have a flap behind the head MST Doesn't.

    How Mst looks in color may make the difference.

    Judging from these reveals and pictures, I feel like Newage's are more toylike and probably easier/quicker to transform with the better alt mode. WHile Magic Square are more involved and like their previous releases: Mini-Masterpieces. I don't think you can go wrong with either offerings to be honest. Spoiled for choice.

    Which company has the Ratchet in the background? MST? Mft already released theirs and that means another figure getting replaced. Might need to unload all my non MST stuff soon. Those datsuns are sexy.

    the MS leg proportions are much more pleasing to me.

    The back view is clean. The subtle differences are nice. Ready for colors!

    Overall very nice. Better proportions and less kibble on the mst, faces look decent. Happy to buy the mst.

    I just wish they had the wing tips, otherwise they're perfect.

    Same here. They're both great looking figures. I think I'm waiting to see full color, better pics, and exact heights before deciding.

    I’d like to think I will have enough restraint to pick between the two companies. Right now I’m leaning towards MST for the Datsuns. However, I know I’ll be getting both MST and NewAge Cosmos and every color variation.

    Hmm, looks like they might have double knees? And potentially ankle articulation on both axes? Awesome if so.

    Moi aussi! If they’re all released as individual bots, I could see myself grabbing a ms prowl and a na smokescreen.
