Recently found Stormcloud just the other day so picked him up and also they had powerglide and the paint scheme is so much better on stormcloud than powerglide unless its the Henkie version which its done right and looks awesome. But wants some thoughts and opinions on this and i'll try to get some pics up of Stormcloud as well.

I'm for Powerglide. He's surely more popular, more recognizable than... who's Stormcloud?

Universe Stormcloud is based on his micromaster character and colour scheme.

I love Stormcloud's paint job, except for his bright yellow beak in robot mode. But I prefer Powerglide because I had G1 Powerglide as a kid (and still have him).

I don't PLAN on getting Stormcloud, but if I see him in a store and he looks as good in person as he does online, I'll probably cave in and get him.

I'll be picking up Stormcloud and importing USA edition PG. If I have extra $$, I might get the regular PG, swap arms with the USA import and sell the spare.

I like powerglide better. Red trumps purple in my book.

As much as I adore my PG, I have to say Stormcloud's won my heart. I'm a sucker for black and purple (Skywarp<33333) and I have penchant for micromasters, so this just steals the black little organ I call a heart away :3

On a technically level though, the colors work much better for the mold, and at least on my figure the paint apps are cleaner. Compared to the USA Edition PG though? Well... when I get it I'll let y'all know

Which is better? Same toy, different colours. Neither is "better." If I were being picky, I'd point out that Stormcloud should have been done in blue and called Tailwind, but meh.

If they made a whole same-size Air Strike Patrol (or whatever they were called) I'd be there.

Powerglide should've become Tailwind though like Sledge said.
