I don't dig the "battle damage" on either him or Prime...
But I may still get that set.
We'll see when I see it in person.

So that's a battle damage. I thought it was just some sort of emblem.

Now i see the differnce. Their wear different pants.

I don't see how Hasbro can justify releasing 2 molds that are so similar ar the same time. Why even waste the effort of creating a mold so similar? It seems like they're just burning money.

Yeah. Voyager is just one step up from Deluxe.

Unlike Leader Brawl, which is 2 steps up from Deluxe Brawl.

Tough call. Both toys look good, and there's not enough reason to buy both given their similarity. If the two-pack works well in cost-saving terms, I suspect I'll opt for it instead of two different Voyagers. That's a good thing, considering how much I suspect Animated will cost me.

Both are pretty awesome IMHO. I like the way the cannon sits on the deluxe figure. Of course, the Voyager cannon might be capable of the same poses, but the pics don't make it very clear.

NICE! :APPLAUSE:

I think the Deluxe version will cater to the buyers who just wants to have Prime and Megatron. And for the kids too.

While the Voyager is for those who plans to complete the whole series.

I dunno, the delux doesn't seem *that* much shorter, and I like the design on the cannon a LOT more than the buster gun Voyager Megs has. Other than the pink cr@p, which should come off easily enough, I like the deluxe version better.

I'll prolly end up getting both :roll:

I'm one of the people who will probably just want prime and megatron, but I'm still passing on this for the voyagers. If I'm getting them, I want them big and detailed. Although wouldn't deluxe Prime be more to scale? I mean he was like half the size of meg in the pilot ep.

Finally, a Transformers line that goes back to basics, and don't look like blocks of crap like the past 6 TF toylines (Including the horrible pathetic looking movie toys aka the Bionacle rip off's)

Prime looks cool,. Megatron like crap, honestly that deluxe Megatron looks crap compared to the Voyager, the only thing I like about him is the metalic paint.

One word! Voyager!

Jesus christ almighty. Why do they always have to screw up figs of- what would seem- the second most important character? When was the last megatron that actually was any good? my god they screwed up the deluxe. and this battle damage is just hilarious.
