    I have Hasbro's Brawn right here at my desk... now I'm sad because his green sucks in comparison! I plan to paint his face silver though... at least I can do that much.

    Wonder if takara made that CJ cuz they never made a classics version from the deluxe BB

    I agree about the black faced Brawn, it should be white or light grey to contrast with his helmet

    Can't wait for Wheelie, Cosmos, and Warpath, Hasbro versions that is. The only one I feel like Takara did better is Warpath but not $20 better

    i like all the vehicle forms. I'm just not too hapy with Cliffy in robot mode. His head looks like he ate too much. Kinda ruined the Universe figure for me cause he's my second favorite TF....:( 
    And i generally like 90% of things coming f or the universe line

    I'm sure. They probably weren't satisfied with him being a straight redeco of BB. He still is, but at least it's not a straight redeco of this line's BB (as there is no Legends BB in Universe only CJ).

    Does that mean we will never get Henkei Legends G1 Bumblebee?

    The new molds. I don't like seeing repaints of figures that were never meant to be other characters.

    Warpath looks great. I want one.

    He was one of my favorites on the show.

    CKH, I would have to see your customs to compare.
    I don't like the motorcyle(WreckGar?) his arms are too
    stubby. What is he supposed to do with those?

    I really liked that custom of Movie Stockade as Brawn - I feel the punching feature just suits Brawn rather well and the Altmode is not unsuitable either.

    I wonder if they will redecorate Brawn into Outback at all ? or maybe make G2 like Chrome versions.

    I'm betting no since we have the Deluxe version already, and they haven't repeated any characters within the line (except for Crystal Convoy & the Lucky Draw prizes).

    IMO, only Warpath and Red Bumblebee are different enough to warrant a purchase. If those two were in the same set, I'd probably bite. But as they aren't, I think I'm going Universe on all 6 molds (and I already have the first three)
