    The H2 was GM, which they in particular had a deal with. Maybe Hasbro didn't want to pay another license fee for a vehicle not actually in the film.

    I'm posting this here too, from the Feedback thread, so more eyes see it:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Ok soooooo....

    I'm not here to stir the Hasbro vs Takara debat pot.....buuuuuuuut, the proof is in the puddin', right?

    I returned my DISASTER of a Hasbro Longhaul last week, and pulled the trigger on a $45 shipped Amazon.jp Takara Longhaul. Thought, why not? Let's see if there's a difference.

    OMG it's night and day difference. lol

    Granted, I still had to remove the two hand screws, which allows the sides to compress properly, but as for the rest, IT'S A BRICK! See for yourself.

    Also notable, the waist clicks and rotates perfectly. Zero bobble.

    So I'm not saying to run out and spend the extra money, but I am saying, there STILL is a difference (for the better) with Takara versions.

    Yay working Longhaul! (cheer, applause)

    P.S: I tried positioning this better lol but I don’t have a stand and megatrons too heavy and just falls off prime haha, but it’s supposed to be a reverse of the movie 1 scene where Optimus rides megatron in his plane mode. I don’t gave the mpm 8 so I couldn’t make the scene with him. Alsoooo that paper towel is Optimus’s cape, he’s Super-Cybertronian

    Role swap with a twist! Switching out Optimus (from Megatron's face kick scene) with Mudflap, except Mudflap is Johnny Cage's biggest fan.

    Megatron, you've been caged!

    Cool concept! Reminds me of this!

    While Mindwipe has always been skilled at wiping minds, he's also notorious for leaving Skids marks... :lol :gen069:

    I feel like I'm losing sleep at night. Jazz is slated to arrive this Monday, and I can't wait for him!!!
    You lucky duck! Congrats on the package! I do agree with others on here that that'll probably look dope if you keep it as MISB. Maybe hang it up like a trophy? I think it'll look awesome if you do something like that! :lol
