US SS.

They are virtually identical. I got lucky and neither of mine had any QC issues and are structurally of idetical quality.

US wins due to:

Anime colors.
DR Archville is painted.

Packaging is a win for MP 3 as Hasbro used the same crap as DVD Prime.

I still ove MP3 though. The realistic colors are a win as well, and he will be displayed in alt mode once someone makes me a TC to take his place in the line up.

MP-3 color scheme makes Starscreams blue and red stand out less so he's definitely the better Alt mode of the two.

For robot mode and easy identification, it's the US MP. since.. well.. he actually looks like my G1 toy.

The cartoon accuracy of the US version really does it for me. MP-3 isn't bad though, still very cool.

Had the cartoon not existed, and these figures weren't based on something that I obsessed over as a youngin ... I would probably prefer MP-3.
