    Those red blotches in robot mode looks too bright when compared to the photo of the prototype. Definitely ruins the overall look in robot mode judging by the photo. Maybe its the lighting and it will look better in person. Truck mode looks great..

    He's supposed to be light blue and rusty, not milky...

    Looks like his alt mode is the winner with this deco.

    If someone decides they don't want theirs, feel free to send it to me and I'll set it on fire for you.

    23 repaints and not one accurate version. Oh well, it's still the best (only decent) AOE figure.

    ^^^ That one looks ok, but it looks too rusty. It did not really look like that in the movie...

    I understand Takara is supposed to be superior to Hasbro in terms of repaints...

    but that robot mode looks like shit. Probably should keep it in vehicle mode and let it rust away.

    Looks like bacon to me. Especially the red/white swirling on the arm. :/

    I love it!

    So I guess it is now 'Strawberry Bacon Cheesecake Prime'.

    Truck mode looks ok. JUST ok. But man, bot mode? That's a big disappointment. I'm going to try to stay optimistic and hope it looks better in hand.

    The truck mode looks GREAT, but the robot mode is sort of meh with the creamy milk-color. Either way, it's way out of my budget.

    I agree. It went from awesome to looking like a piece of crap.
