I can't believe they just imported a straight up Hasbro mold. Wow.


They did the same for Kup, only that mold already had enough ports to begin with.

So Jiku's crystal is "Mystic"? How mysterious. And the Claw Spear actually looks decent for a Combo Weapon.
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Same here. I really dig the the shade of blue used. I should have just saved and got this version instead of Hasbro's. Still might get him, though.

Just got mine today. I did like the Hasbro Dreadwing colors a bit better, but the rubber on Takara Dreadwing is much more solid. No real differences otherwise...hard to say which I like better since they both have their pros & cons. If it were easy (and the figures were cheaper) I'd almost like to just take the rubber parts from the AM put them onto the Weaponizer one. lol...

The Hasbro mold's got the upper hand here; it's simply a numbers game.

Hasbro:
More show accurate colors
Significantly cheaper
Sword actually decent in show representation


Takara:
Very cool Micron

The problem I'm having is that the Hasbro release still hasn't come out in the UK, and there's not much $/trying to get by the spam filter.. NO. between the two versions as I'd have to import. And with Beast Hunters stuff reportedly already hitting the shelves in the US, the window of availability on getting hold of Dreadwing is rapidly closing.

Iceland has a better selection (TFsource article) of Transformers than the UK lol
