    I've been looking all over for a picture of Rhinox in package.

    I want to put him on my Christmas list, but my family doesn't buy me Transformer toys unless I give them a colored picture. Last time I asked for a IDW Deluxe Trailcutter, they get me a Beast Hunters Commander Trailcutter instead.

    Guns aside, I think Takara's looks awful.
    They made the rhino mode shiney. Like it's made of metal or something.

    I'll be going Hasbro and just painting the guns. It's closer to his flesh tone than reflective, metallic bronze.

    Again?

    Because they haven't had that many victories, honestly, when it comes to paint decoes. I can recall a few figures where the paint was more accurate, but not many.

    For a Hasbro repaint of Blitzwing with a new head, I don't see how they could have done better.

    Yeah, I don't get it, it looks okay to me.

    Doubledealer would never have gotten a new mould. This is the next best thing.

    Rhinox's guns need that silver badly. Luckily, that's why sharpies exist.

    Spring for the Sharpie Paint Markers.....they rock. You can get them in an extra fine tip too, so you literally draw paint on, and into teeny, tiny crevasses.

    Perhaps not always accurate, (cough cough Dragotron cough)

    But shiny and lusterous...have you not seen Animated? or Generations...or Go Arcee? Takara nowadays has great deocs on a lot of their figures.

    I would be completely fine with the Hasbro version, actually prefer the less dark animal form. Don't need detailing, fits better with the original BW toys. BUT - those guns suck. Looks like he has Rhino skin stretched over his "Chain Guns of Doom". Gonna fire off some meat bullets. Yukky.
