Question about Arms Micron Megatron

I actually have 2 questions but my big question is of course regarding AM Megs. If Takara chose Voyager Prime for Arms Micron why didn't they chose Voyager Megs over Deluxe? It makes all the sense in the world for Takara to have used Voyager Megs instead...right? If this question has already been kicked around my apologies for missing it.

My second question is regarding Arms Micron assembly. No doubt that a lot of you Gundam fans that are TF fans that picked up any AM figs see zero concerns with assembly. But with parts removal from the sprue's does it involve some simple twisting and pulling or would I require an exacto knife and then some? Thanks all for your input and help!

You can twist them off, but you might risk pulling
something off or adding excess to it...

If you use a razor or exacto you'd have less stuff to
shave off later with more control over the cut.

Just put together terrorcon cj's micron earlier using
a folding painter blade.

Oh crap so that's AM-15 Darkness Megatron? Thanks for the reminder JGR! Well now I have to wait a bit longer at least till July (according to BBTS) to see if AM-15 is worth getting or if I should pick up Hasbro Voyager Megs... .

Thanks Blurrz N pfcparts for your 2 cents on this too. So is it better to apply the decals before or after Micron assembly?
