I think that we have already been told that there will not be a Hasbro version of this masterpiece figure.

I couldn't remember where I read/heard about no Hasbro version, maybe it was in a video review but I googled and found this page which refers to it. I don't know how valid it is though

Less paint apps is the only likely change but there aren't that many anyway. I suppose a grey gun would happen.

I'm sorry, but a YouTube reviewer's "sources" are less reliable than you think. We (the fandom) hear plenty from sources that don't pan out. Whether it's HasTak or 3rd party, it does fall through sometimes.

However, it IS true that Aaron Archer said Hasbro doesn't have the Lamborghini license currently. He didn't say they wouldn't try, or wouldn't get it, just that they don't have it right now. Big difference.

Still, just to be on the safe side, I'd recommend importing the TakaraTomy original. You never know when it might just end up getting the axe.
