You've seen Grimlock earlier today, and now it's time for the other two, Swoop and Snarl. There aren't any major differences compared to their Hasbro counterparts, the colored Autobot logo and shiny gold paint are characteristic to Takara Animated figures. Check out each figure's packaging, robot and alternate mode below!

I like Snarl's grey more than the Hasbro version.

Looks like Swoops flail is still neutered too.

Little to no show accuracy? Really? I'm honestly shocked. I knew they were chroming them, which isn't show accurate, but I thought they'd catch the details Hasbro hadn't.
How very odd. Well, I've heard that the ratings for Animated are terrible in Japan, I believe it was stated that it's been canceled there, so I'd guess the toys wouldn't be a high priority either.
Shame. A terrible shame. I just don't get it. Where's the love for TFs these days?

What!? Where did you hear that? I hope that doesn't affect the toy line, I really need Rodimus.

I believe it was stated on a Power Rangers board. They have a TF thread in which they discuss the movies, toys, shows, etc.
I'll dig around and see if I can find the info. I don't think the toys are in any danger of being canceled, they've already been produced and just need released, so I doubt they'd lose money on something they've spent on.
I think we'll see more of the missing stuff from TakaraTomy long before we'll see it from Hasbro.

Worst weapon ever.
The flail looks good in Snarls paws, though (bin for the Cheeto).

I kinda like the Cheeto of Justice/Doom/New Jersey or whatever you call it.
