I admit this. However, I feel the figure could be criticized as the red color plastic used is not as vivid as what is seen on the USA edition version (which could also be criticized for not being as accurate). As such, it comes down to a matter of preference between accuracy and the general aesthetic.

There's three versions of this toy out there now, and one for everyone really. I for one am pleased with the first one, but for those who aren't, there's the USA edition and now this one.

I think that sounded fair enough.

That sounds very fair and a great summary regarding Powerglide. There's one for everyone indeed.

Second.

I actually have yet to buy any of these Powerglides. It's not because of any preference of regular Hasbro/Henkei/Walmart Excklusive and has little ro do with color.

He's just...so...BIG

That's the same reason I didn't get any of them either.

If the mold was deluxe sized then I would be worried about my color choices.

I found these for $10 each at my Walmart, so naturally I bought all 3.

I just picked up PowerGlide last night and i must say very nice figure and no paint flaws or loose joints so far! And he looks great standing next to Hardhead. Just need to get Skyfall and the Ultra classics will be complete.
