They still don't look to be the best figures, but the Takara paint jobs do wonders.

I particularly like the silver plastic on Jazz.
It's better than the pasty white the Hasbro used on their version of the figure.

Jazz looks much better in the japanese version but the TakaraTomy FOC Optimus Prime version sure looks much detailed and so but I'm not so much the metalic friend.

Odd how the Takara versions look way better than the Hasbro, imagine that!

I'm hoping that it's just an effect of the lighting on the shiny paint but Prime almost appears to have a slightly orange tint. Not a fan of that but like I said, probably just the lighting in the pic. I'm loving the extra detail though and the metallic appearance. Love the detail on Jazz too but I'm not a fan of the grey. So I guess, if I had to choose just based on the pics I'd have to go with the Takara Prime and the Hasbro Jazz. I already have the Hasbro FOC Prime and he looks positively bland now after seeing these pictures.

Looks like you can polish a turd.



But now it's just a shiny turd.

A $40 shiny turd.
