Bummer, no news credit for me too...

In any case, this guys is crazy chromed but it's actually not too tacky IMO. I really don't like Ironhide in either version but I actually like this version of Ratchet. I might preorder this guy after all.

So is it safe to assume the earlier pic with the red forehead crest is the TFU version?

Here's the Hasbro one we saw earlier for comparison.

I think I'll be getting the Henkei one, which is fitting since Henkei Ironhide is on the way to me now. They'll make a good pair :)

I know his head is different is coloured differently in a bunch of the comics, but he just looks so right with the black head crest. Geeeeeeeee wun cartoon style B-)

I think HAsbro's version is just fine. Sure there is one or two things I'd change but, overall I think Hasbro is doing a fine job with Universe.

Agreed. I like it and will get one when I find it.
Not a sheeple.
Think for yourself, don't let the magic TV box and social media do the thinking for you.
Question EVERYTHING!!
Just because you have a youtube review channel doesn't make you special.
I look forward to attending a Botcon soon only to settle matters with several idiots in person (yes this is a threat).

I really like it.

I never have had any reason or want to buy any of the Henkei releases until Ratchet. I think the Black brow and deep white sold me on it.

Wow. The Henkei version does look a lot nicer on the computer screen than the Hasbro. However, I will haev to see the Hasbro version in person. I don't pay the extra money if I don't have to.

Now THAT is a beautiful figure. Too bad Henkei Ironhide didn't turn out as well, but I'm still getting them both. Lovely. I'm excited for this guy!
