They all appear to be darker shades. Bulkhead in particular is much darker, to a level where he is completely off color from his show self.

Their Bumblebee is correctly colored in a golden yeloow instead of a banana yellow. And it has a gray face instead of a blackish face.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

I guess less shiny (than I originally thought) and just more dark. Still, nothing worth importing for.

I love the Takara dark army green colors on Bulkhead.
I don't like the lighter orange-red colors on voyager sized optimus prime.
I'll most likely buy the hasbro versions of voyager bulkhead & voyager Optimus Prime. If the Takara voyager bulkhead is cheap or goes on clearance then i'll buy it.
I have zero plans to get the other figures in this thread. So I could care less how their colored.

Looks like they have the metallic swirled plastic.

I like the looks of this Optimus & Bumblebee a lot better. I'm very pleased that the Optimus is correctly colored with blue instead of black.

I'm starting to feel like that Bulkhead is really too dark. Look at his color in natural lighting in One Shall Rise Part 2.
I think he's closer to the Hasbro colors if only Hasbro had some metallic sheen to him.
