    Pretty much anywhere, i'd personally recommend The Chosen Prime if I had to pick one.

    Going through the cartoon again I'm noticing that Thundercracker and Skywarp usually have lighter faces than Starscream. Skywarp looks lighter than the other two to me on the Hasbro Pulse website, but Thundercracker appears to be the same color as Starscream. I hope they don't screw this up.

    That's just the lighting. Starscream has the darker face, Thundercracker and Skywarp will have lighter faces, just like with their relevant MP-11 versions. No worries.

    I'm already worried. Although, I could just leave the box unopened, wait for pictures and videos of it, and then return it if I don't like the color.

    Bro. I remember the toon mp thundercracker and Skywarp announcements. Their insignias were all wrong and skywarp had stripes all over the place and thundercracker had bright metallic silver paint. It was a shitshow on these boards.

    these 52 repaints are going to be flawless. The faces will be correct. And even if they’re not I think I’ll be able to forgive it as a mistake. But we gotta have faith!

    This. Not doubling up on these without a good reason, the images speak for themselves!

    How much more can one forgive? Hope these work out. MP-52 did have issues for some, but those good copies were really solid

    I think that’s a loaded question. These are highly toon accurate and very articulated versions of characters and toys I like. I don’t need to have a gauge of ‘what’s acceptable’ when it’s something that I like.

    This is legit the Takara equivalent of throwing a platter of the spiciest of wings in front of me. A hell of a pleasure, hahahaha. The Honda Cities and Nightbird are my usual appetizers and Cliffjumper is the desert that makes everything even better.

    So yeah, seconded.
