    Can we get the Fans Hobby G2 Prime and TE01 comparison? Also, anyone have Toyworld Orion? I'd like to see a comparison between them two as well. I've got Reximus Prime (KO OS MP Grimlock) I'll post a comparison later today with him and TE01 when I get back from work.

    I had posted this a while back.

    Had the same idea. Thought the V1 head would work a bit better, though. Love it!

    So V1 Head is either season 3 or could be a good stand in for the G1 Marvel comics prime. Hmmm..now me thinks a repaint of V1 would be doable to match the Marvel Aesthetics. Lighter blues, air brushed of course. Yellow eyes, And added silver or gray touches in some areas.
    Silver windows..and so on.

    It may be that with such a lighter shade of blue, that V1 head sculpt could look amazing.
    Interesting. V1 may have just become a hot customizer item to get.

    I noticed today in natural light that the V2 head is lighter than the V1 head. It's not much lighter, but it's definitely a different shade to the blue on the rest of the figure.

    Indeed. If someone were to do the MARVEL version, I picture am even lighter blue, even MP10 Hasbro blue. I'll work on a digibash to see who that could look.

    Can someone better than me at photography do TE01 V2 like this? I wanna compare them..

    The colors are all different on the V2 from the V1. You can’t tell except if you have both side by side.

    That'll be it then. Luckily it's not too jarring.

    Ooh, the eyes are separate. That always makes things so much easier.
