Breakdown's red face is slightly more orange, his gray plastic is slightly darker, the Jet Vehicon's lavender is slightly "less red", and both have production numbers stamped on their left leg or foot.
Breakdown's stickers are also now more plastic-matching blue instead of purple.
So all these differences will make some collectors double-dip and this won't really bring down the value of the originals.

EDIT: The set is now in stock, too!

Having experimented both, yup. That's pretty much it.
I had a feeling that was the case, since these kits looked similar to the cheap Gundams I've handled. The stock decals are basically just low-cost placeholders to keep the kits from looking completely bare out of the box; actual quality is meant to come from either a higher-grade separate sheet or the consumer's painting skill.-Kanrabat- wrote:ZeldaTheSwordsman wrote:Would I be right in thinking that the stickers are similar to the stock stickers for comparable Gundam kits in terms of crappiness?

What would be a comparable Gundam kit?

I'll be enjoying this beautiful thing to its fullest.
Doubtful, since this is a line of minimally-different reissues.grimdragon2001 wrote:anyone else hoping Hasbro will use this opportunity to get us a proper S3 Smokescreen?

What's also kind of sad is despite how much I like hades Megatron, I have not transformed him yet and honestly I might not at all

I'd recommend transforming him at least once if you don't already have another version of the mold. There are a few neat steps I haven't seen before.
Actually all 3 of the Prime anniversary bots had a few steps in their transformations that were quite enjoyable for me, never experiencing the molds before.

He has the craziest arm joint setup. Ball joint shoulder, bicep swivel, a pin joint and a ball joint for an elbow and a pin joint wrist. He should have no problem doing the Macarena.
