Who glides with the most power? Is it the original white Hasbro version, or Takara's Henkei red? Is it Hasbro's attempt to cash in on the angry fans who wanted a red Powerglide, or does Storm Cloud win with black? I have yet to buy the mold and want some opinions.

some custom one I ordered a while back, diecast and the chest opens to reveal a heart.

same order I got a cyclonus, but very loose and the classics cyclonus pretty much negates it uniqueness

The Hasbro red one is terrible. It's the super cheap semi-translucent red like on Ironhide, HtfD Hubcap, etc. I've been meaning to get a Henkei one for ages, but other things keep popping up.

Agreed.

Get the Henkei.

I don't know. I really dug Stormcloud's color scheem and opted for him. I do not regret it one bit.

I went for Stormcloud, simply because that mold is NOT Powerglide to me. It's not the size, it's the stocky build.

I actually think the mold itself was exceptionally well done. I think the proportions were absolutely correct, and the figure as a whole was a great update to the cartoon likeness Powerglide had in the series. I realize most people don't agree with that, but I will go to my grave with my opinion unchanged....

as far as the color, Henkei is the best. I do like the white version a lot though. The Hasbro red version is the only one that I truly feel looks nasty.

I bought the white version. Good enough for me. I'm not a huge Powerglide fan, but I think it's funny how 's a bodybuilder compared tot he other Neo G1 minibots.

I bought the white version, and soon later saw the red version available overseas. I just couldn't fork over the loot for it though. Then Hasbro started giving us Americans the red version. So picked that one up as well. I passed on Stormcloud, but kinda wish I had picked him up. Only because of his color scheme. It's just so Skywarp'ish. So between the two I have, I like the red one better. It fits Powerglide as a upscaled minibot.
