It was a dumb statement, you're right to be confused

Both are indeed in "G1 colors", just slightly different. They're identical aside from the shade of blue used, the eyes, and the lights on top of the cab. Many people think the lighter blue is more accurate, but the dark blue is actually closer to what he looked like in the show.

Exactly the same, barring any other arbitrary TRU markup.

Indeed! Fun fact: actually cut a short few minutes out of the last episode where she talked about it because the news hadn't gone Officially official public, officially.

Best not to think too hard about that.

Anyone know what I can do for the dead-looking eyes on the figure? I'm currently negotiating a price to purchase the Takara MP-10 from a fellow Seibertronian and want to see if I can get the necessary tools to make the adjustment so I can bring Prime's eyes to life.

Let me know with any solutions?

this direction?

Awesome! Thanks a lot. While we're still on this topic; anyone know where to get the Ocean Eyes decal for MP-10's eyes?

Thanks!
