Man, I feel bad for anyone that already paid $60 from the 3rd party online retailers.

Not sure if the box picture is still necessary as everybody has saw it, but..
The Two guys together.
It's really a strange set. One of the most detailled and complex Generation Deluxe, with ... ok not the worse, but at least the most simplistic looking and less detailled of TR line.
They don't match at all.
Time for comparison with their counterparts :
VS T30th Orion Pax :
So in the end ?
I initially planned to resell the WFC Prime as I already had the original.
Except now I have it, I think I'll keep it. I can't choose which one is the best. I like the more vivid colors, as well as the neon blue instead of neon pink.
It's the same conflict as between the orginal Supercon armada Prime and the Galaxy force vivid repaint.
For Orion Pax, I decided to prefer him to Kup because of the head before even buying it.
Now I got it, I'm a bit deceived by this head (the T30th was more detailled aven if smaller), but it's still far better from the Kup's one.
The plastic remains the same, whic means this strans porous-looking cheap plastic. Strange considering the WFC got the same high grade plastic as the first release.
And he is as floppy as Kup..
Oh and if you need one more reason to prefer Orion instead of Kup :

I supposed it's eliteguard, but after check, it's not the same.

I think I'm tempted to buy it if cheap just to have a look at how the Prime transforms as I've not played with that mold and am curious and dunno if I'd keep it or sell it on. I'd just sell the Pax right away.

In fact, that's it, since my post/review, the new one replaced the original on my shelves.

He is correct compared to other titans return.
Not the best, but correct.
Putting him on the same box was really unfair. Even the FOC prime for the same era would look bad next to the WFC.

Yeah the newer one just has better contrast with that bolder red and darker grey particularly on the chest. That appeals to me much more.

I don't really like the Kup figure as is though the Takara one fixes a lot of the issues I have with it such as the arms.

Times like this do make me miss Fun Pub and the Ask Vector Prime segments. This two pack is a continuity curiosity, and I would love to be able to get an official answer on which fiction these figures are intended to belong to. My collection display depends on it!

These are technically his G1 incarnation since the back of the box calls him a data scientist and both it is supposed to show his evolution (as said in the back). So yeah, this is G1 Prime.
