    Weird - the cockpit flap connectors are completely different colors. Can you compare with the original Kingdom version? Does it look like they might have put a Kingdom piece on at the factory by mistake?

    Also - Mark Maher said the final sticker sheet was different from the one shown in the promo pics. Could you please show a picture of that?

    For the yellowing, do you mean on the purple hinges? That looks less like yellowing to me and more like just color mismatch due to different types of plastic (same as the Kingdom figure had, but a bit more noticeable). If it were yellowing I'd expect it to be more obvious on the grey parts.

    Hi I have attached some comparisons between the two and the sticker sheet. As for the hinges, I think it is yellowing as I believe other colours have been effected on other toys, I know that g2 ramjet was affected with the teal on him

    Whoa…sucks about the yellowing but that’s awesome seeing how much darker the Selects one is! Are some parts in robot mode loose enough to flop down by their own weight? For example, do the knees bend on their own due to loose connections?

    the left arm likes to flop down on its own, the legs are looser compared to the kingdom release, will try and get a video of it later if you want?

    Thanks, nah you don’t have to make a video. Hopefully the joint looseness isn’t a widespread issue!

    He looks good, but I kinda wish he were an even darker purple.

    Looks great, even without the stickers!

    It’s 2022. We should be beyond stickers

    Him or SG Cyclonus (with Krunix) would be day-one purchases for me.

    I'll probably put the wing stickers on, but I don't know. I like my Selects Galvatron sans stickers and I really like the look of this guy without any, I suppose it's that Cyclonus came with those wing stickers on that gets me to think they look bare without it. I guess I'll make the call in hand.

    I’d love a Ginrai in Fire Guts colors, especially if he comes with his trailer and Godbomber.
