I really wish they had made the green metallic like in the show.

Tigatron was a good character, but it would be nice if hasbro stoped using repaints to make other characters. Yes I know that Mainframe( the guys who made Beast wars) did not have enough money to make him a different look for tigatron ( he apparently was supposed to be Wolfang) but look at alot of the Unicron Trilogy toys, there are Alot of repaints.

I love these these Japanese beastwars remakes. I wish the would've updated the mold like they did with Megs. But I guess theres no need to mess with perfection. Is there any word on the next wave of the remakes? Is there even a second wave planned?

I'm kind of tired of re-paints too, but can you really complain about this Tigatron compared to the original?

It wasn't even pure white! I simply must pre-oreder this as well as the newly painted Blackarachnia. Both of thier new paint jobs are a big improvement over their original colors.
