Sometimes there are cases with toys based on comic designs that have the situation is unpredictable.
Like, with toys like Orion Pax, Megatron, Trailcutter, Skids, Windblade, Targetmaster Flanker vs. Phaser, Jetfire, and Ultra Magnus, it's "Hasbro = comic accurate, Takara = even more comic accurate than Hasbro".
But, with toys like Swerve, Tailgate, Targetmaster Chop Shop, Hoist (w/ a blue visor), Whirl, and Roadbuster, it's "Hasbro = comic accurate, Takara = toy accurate".
And, with toys like Legends class Starscream, Legends class Megatron, Brainstorm, and Generations Springer vs. Transformers: Legends Springer, it's "Hasbro = comic accurate, Takara = show accurate".
With toys like Legends class Optimus Prime, Bumblebee vs. Bumblebee Goldbug, and the Mini-Con Assault Team, and Hasbro vs. Takara Generations Springer, it's "Hasbro = comic accurate, Takara = whatever they want".
With toys like Waspinator, Armada Starscream, Rattrap, Tankor, Arcee, Chromia, Rhinox, Sky-Byte, Skrapnel, Bombshell, Cosmos, Powerglide, Metroplex, Megatron, and Armada Megatron, it's "Hasbro = character's traditional look, Takara = character's traditional look but with even more effort or extra/different paint apps to achieve said look".
And there's probably even more variations for just the Thrilling 30 toys and the CW Legends and Leaders alone.
