TakaraTomy to Release Show-Accurate Classics Astrotrain?

Not really surprising; I mean, Tomy painted Classics Megatron in "G1 accurate" colors.

Ummm... I posted this a half hour ago.

hmm, as cp would say:
SHO' NUFF
you did post this first. ole skowl backslided you

I like. Makes my Classics one seem like a crappy repaint. lol

My rear end. How can it be show accurate if he never appeared in the cartoon with that body?

In all fairness, zodconvoy, your title is not leading one to believe that this is anything more than a debate on what colors it is, or could be.

I am sure that the story will get edited with your name as credit.



I ordered another one of these cause I like the colors so much!

Yeah, I beat him by a half hour.

I scooped the News Crew!

I'd give you a cookie but i left all my Cookies in my other pants.

THis astrotrain mold is garbage no matter what pint they put on it

i never realized how many people disliked this toy. he's my favorite in the classics line to date. I always loved the character and the original toy too. This repaint looks great, really makes me regret not getting that e-hobby repaint.

Once again, I envy Japan for having brains in the matter of knowing what things should look like.

It's nice that TakaraTomy has made there Classics more G1 toon accurate colors but they missed a spot on two of the figures. Starscream should've had a blue nosecone tip and the front half of the train on Astrotrain should've at least been alternating purple and grey stripes not purple and white.

However, I love their take on Classics Megatron over Hasbro's colors but with a third kid on the way I can't shell out that extra cost when I already have Hasbro's Classics Megatron.

Cartoon Starscream didn't have the blue nosecone though, that was just the toy.
