I'm happy with my 'cheap' hasbro version. Though I'd like the second gun, I'm not keen on their placement in carrier mode, kinda got used to the shoulder mount in carrier and robot mode...

Re the stickers, I don't usually apply them but metroplex is so white he needed them badly. I only did a few and lost one and tore another....

Now if someone could explain what the two red pylons near the helioad are meant to be.... They seem ripe for a third party elevator add on.
My personal prime collection so far in descending order of how great i reckon the toy is -
FE Prime, Silas Breakdown (Powerizer), Dreadwing (Powerizer), FE Bulkhead, Voyager StarScream (Powerizer), Ratchet, Soundwave, Arcee, Voyager Megatron (Powerizer), Wheeljack, Thundertron (Powerizer), Ultra Magnus (Powerizer), Knockout, Cliffjumper, Bumblebee,Airachnid

So it actually comes with decals besides the added paint apps?

Does Takara's version come with a more numerous sticker sheet? I can't tell.

My guess is the stickers are no more numerous than the Hasbro ones, since some (but not all) of the stickers on Hasbro's version were replaced with paint apps.

Other than a bigger Autobot symbol on Scamper's chest (The retail/SDCC version is TINY), and the red on the feet, which I think is cool, and the second gun, I personally don't feel there's any reason to import this. Metroplex has been, if not easy to find, at least not scarce. When I have seen him, it's been at random times of the day, though only at TRU so far.

Maybe Takara didn't like that the Hasbro sticker was small and so made theirs bigger.

I like it but after seeing all of the pictures so far I have now decided to cancel my Takara Metroplex pre-order, instead I'm just going to buy the Hong Kong ACG-Con Exclusive Metroplex that includes chromed hips and face, two guns, and gold-colored minifigures, but I'm doing it more for the chromed hips than anything else. :-$
