I like Budora's beast mode head more than GrimWing/DarkSteel's.

Who are you calling an effeminate psycho?! O wait, it's Judora... never mind...

I've got Judora on the way. I should have him early next week. I'll do my best to get his gallery up ASAP for all of you.

I'm the other way. I like the Hasbro griffon head better. The Takara version is basically a flamingo with tusks. Really hate the down-turned bottom jaw.
The bot head is really nice and I like the mold overall. I've heard people complain that it felt cheap and hollow, but I don't think it feels bad at all. My only major complaint is the lack of wing articulation, real shame they wasted the joint on the spikes.
A friend that owed me money picked up and is holding onto Grimwing for me and I plan on getting Darksteel, too. I love beast Transformers so both Go! and Beast Hunters are really fun for me.
Oh, just noticed the gallery doesn't have any shots of him with his shoulder weapons out. Probably a lot of people don't even know about them, they aren't on the box, just in the instructions (which I don't normally use, but I was trying to figure out if there was a release for the hips or if it was all friction).

So tempted to pick them up, but I'm still not sure.
Posted by Noideaforaname on September 30th, 2013 @ 8:40am CDT
Or maybe it isn't based off of anything, and Hasbro's finally getting away from just slightly changing the shades of Optimus' red and/or blue.
BB's new face sculpt is great, and I'm loving that cleaver sword OP has.

It might just be me but does Bee look taller than Optimus? Maybe just the way they are photoed.

All that's left that's current released is the Jaki 5-Piece Gattai: Goradora.

I agree, he looks absolutely menacing with the 3 eyes. Really looks like he would curse you.

Unless...maybe it's a Cosmic-Rust Attack! That would actually be an appropriately intimidating power for an ancient revived monster. Sure he didn't have that in the movie, but then he didn't really have a color scheme either...

Probably not at this point ... I didn't know there was a variant and I'm not paying more than the $20 I saw these things going for. If you see one on eBay for $25 shipped, I'll do it.

This thicker stripe variant is the one we got here in the UK. Well, it's what was on the shelves when I bought him at least I wasn't aware there was more than one version either.

That said, the hunter mold does look good. Shame a new Decepticon character and deco wasn't made for it instead. That would work.

It also is a darker shade of yellow, doesn't have the red swirls in his yellow plastic like the Hasbro version, and has sparkly black paint on his spoiler instead of a flat black paint. It's a minor variant but a variant nonetheless. Predaking and Hunter Bumblebee have the most minor differences of the entire Go! line.

But, yeah, Hunter Bumblebee's differences are so subtle as to be virtually unnoticeable by the naked eye.
At least Dragotron has the virtue of possibly being a different character from Predaking.

Or perhaps the original guy, since Predaking is a clone after all.

He's an homage to G1 Slicer, who was used as a template for SG Wheeljack. As such, BotCon 2010 Slice (made from the G1 Wheeljack homaging Energon Downshift) was made to double as both:
G1 Slice on the left, BotCon 2010 Decepticon Slice on the right.
As for the rest: Bumblebee is Goldbug, Starscream is Skywarp, and Knock Out references the G1 Constructicons, the closest thing the G1 'Cons had for medics (especially Hook).

Dark Energon Wheeljack and Shattered Glass Wheeljack are both homages to Action Master Slicer, a Decepticon repaint of Action Master Wheeljack.
Which reminds me that I need to get around to finishing up the European Action Master exclusives at some point.
