    For all the people not liking the final result, which version of the movie was this supposed to be based on? I am seeing the movie in different countries appearing animated & released in significantly different ways vs. the US market final release - coloring & animation was apparently very different. So I am just curious...I also wish the original cut was the released version cause it was much more rock & roll themed.

    I can't believe that after we stopped complaining because everything was said, people still question it.

    The problem for me and others is that the maw is blue because Hasbro cheaped out the deco, when thing was sold to us as having a consistent colour scheme for the focus point of the planet mode. We were fine with the yellow, which was close enough. The orange is nice, it's just that the entire area that was orange in the movie should have had the same colour, this way it looks unfinished.

    The yellow would have been incorrect, but it was close enough and consistent with the rest of the figure. That's what this is about.

    It is based on the US release... if there's an international version of the movie with Unicron colored differently this is certainly the first I'm hearing of it. Screenshots would be very cool please. I would like to know if these alternate colors you speak of actually did factor in (or exist at all).

    So you need a crane and a forklift to transform it.

    Let me get mine from my toolchest.

    I don't see why it has to. No one says that Unicron's Maw has to be at the equator. Why can't it be at one of the poles? Orientation is relative.

    "I can't risk $600 on a promise. It is the duty of a Transformers fan to own perfectly accurate decos on all their toys."
    "Then, why the hell did Hasbro leave it blue?"
    "What did you say?"
    "Hasbro, They left it blue. They left the maw blue."
    "Willingly?"
    "Yes."
    "Why?"
    "I have no idea. Maybe they made a mistake."
    "Or, I did..."

    Yeah... that was a bad joke about dialogue that has gotten cliche if not entirely thread worn.

    Or unsubtle stoic melodrama.
