Best UFO hands for Striker Optimus Prime

Postby Sideswipe29 » Mon Aug 19, 2013 7:27 pm

Weapon: Battle Blades
Hello friends,

I would like some opinions.

What UFO hands would look best on Striker Optimus Prime?

The dark gray:

Or the plain gray:

Now I know what you're thinking, "The dark gray ones obviously."

And yes, I can see how that is the 'obvious' answer since Striker has a dark gray deco; However, if you notice Striker doesn't have dark gray hands he has just plain drab gray hands:

Image

So would the plain gray UFO hands be a better match?

I know that the UFO hands aren't even that close of a match color wise to begin with but what do you guys think?

Would the dark gray be better since it would tie in with the entire darker deco of the figure? Or would the plain gray be better because that's what the original Striker had?

Today, We take the battle to them.

I would go with the ones that will look better (dark gray) instead of the ones that look more like the original (light gray). After all, the whole point of customizing is to make the figure better!

Hasbro makes decisions like this based not on what will look best, but rather what is most economical. So I wouldn't feel any obligation to stick with their color choices.

I thought there was a set of shiny ones?
IF not, go with the dark ones.
