How do these two guys compare?

[Liege Evilmus]

Trypticon. In the shows he's alot bigger. Gigastorm is just a little larger than the average large BW figure.

Personaly, I have both, and I like Trypticon better, that stupid horn does nothing for me. However I will say he is a nice way to score the figure at an affordable price.

Still, Trypticon, and no its not a G1 thing!

[El Duque]

The toys themselves are the same size thought, right? Do they come with the same accesories? Besides the horn are the any other significant differences?

[Liege Evilmus]

Gigastorm has a jazzy repaint, but none of the parts that make Brunt, the rotating guns and radar or anything.

Well, that isn't entierly true. You do get Full Tilt, but no double barreled cannon.

Gigastorm is basicly a repaint/retool with just the little car. No ramps, no towers, no spinny guns, no light tower.

But he does have a orange horn?

[El Duque]

Thanks for letting me pick your brain. I'll guess I will have to pass since he doesn't come with all the goodies. I'm not a big fan of the horn either.

[Liege Evilmus]

Glad I could help.

As a stand in, he isn't so bad. Then again a Trypticon body isn't all that expensive either. Your best off going for Trypticon.

I would not be surprised to hear of a Trypticon Encore reissue someday.

I would not be surprised to hear of a Trypticon Encore reissue someday.

Neither would I, which is another factor in not getting Gigastorm as a stand in.
