Ouch, the price tag is devastating...I know, it's not very punny.

Wonder why Hasbro didn't think of this red face? The red repaint of the face actually shows off more details on the face.

the tones are different too, and there's more shoulder pain apps as well. But green IS my favorite color so i'll go domestic I believe.

But Takara used special paint. It's the distilled essence of a hundred thousand sacrificed souls who were promised an afterlife filled with exclusive action figures and models of all kinds, where pre-ordering doesn't exist. Every exclusive there ever was and will be is available in this afterlife.

This sacrifice has to be worth, twenty or thirty extra dollars.

USD, that is. None of this Canadian Monopoly money, loonies and toonies nonsense.

I actually like the look of Canadian currency.

That looks rather horrible actually. I prefer the straight grey. Now if they cast the whole face as red...

Ever heard of Canadian Tire money? That is very useful when it comes to bribing Eastern-European officials.

It's beautiful! The colours of the rainbow are encompassed in Canadian currency and if you wish real hard and think happy thoughts, it's worth something!

Maybe that's why the US currency gets pretty colors now. :PEACE:

Back on topic, the price for this isn't that much more expensive than the Hasbro version. As the Takara version is always a little bit expensive than Hasbro version.

Bugger! Bad news for the completists, this one.

Why can't they just have the same stuff everywhere? I dunno, what with EZ Sideways, Voyager Mixmaster and now this (not to mention Incinerator, Nightwatch Prime and the deluxe dune buggy for the last movie), it's getting expensive with all these Japanese variants.

So...many...colours...

The goggles! They do nothing!

You know, someone with crazy origami skills could probably make a RotF Devastator out of Canadian bills.

Nice currency, though I could've sworn I saw the Canadian Tire Money in some KO Monopoly game.

A permanent red marker would take a domestic release to the Takara release in about 5-10 minutes. What is all this discussion about Canadian money about? If you want to know all about it here you go:
