I would stick to finding the US one unless you're a fan of chrome spoilers.

:lol: I was about to ask you if the figure comes with button that makes snoring sounds.


A million thanks for all the info, guys.

I'll be getting the Henkei Lambor, and Sunstreaker. I'll have to give Bumblebee a pass, since I'm not a fan of superfluous chrome.

On Bumblebee, I love the white on him more than the other color schemes.

Different strokes for different folks.
Wanted:
City Commander's head (KO or original)
Henkei Hot Rod's bio card

This is true. I picked up Henkei Sunstreaker and TFU Sideswipe just for that reason. Henkei Streaker is worth the money if show accuracy is something you care about. The chrome is well placed and accurate on him...I would just buy the TFU Lambor/Sideswipe. 2 cents deposited. :lol:

As CP said the classics version of Sideswipe is more cartoon and G1 toy accurate. That's why I never bothered with the Henkei version. It is a really fantastic figure that I highly recommend no matter which version you go with.

As for Bumblebee I don't really have a preference of one over the other, although I use Henkei Bee in my display. I removed the spoiler from his back, which is really easy to do, and you no longer have that weird chrome problem.

The spoiler doesn't bother me nearly as much as the chrome on his legs.

I got Lambor and Sunstreaker, and am LOVING the sight of the "twin lambo's" on my desk. Well worth the cash. Hope to find a Classics Sideswipe too, so I can make a perfect Sideswipe collection featuring the Movie, Henkei and Classic versions side by side.

If I ever find a Classics Bumblebee, I'm sure he'll look perfect next to the Classic Cliffjumper I've already got.

Again, thanks for all the great info.
