Do any of the 3 known versions actually come with his gun(s)?

Not by the looks of it. Master Sword seems to be it

I'm not sure if you've ever ordered from AE before, but they are great. Shipping is fairly inexpensive, pre-order prices are great and I've never been hit by customs from them.

Canadian to Canadian, they are you're best bet for Takara product.

You and I are on the same page

I was recomending Anime Export to the europeans just a few posts back. They are by far my dealer of choice since they ensure that I dont get problems with customs. They are very accomodating and their prices are the best around. Thats who I am getting Computron, Blurr and MP Primal from, cant wait

Damn, that's a massive butter knife!

Consider me sold; this might just be the version I get!

Depending on price between this one, the original, when it's available and where, I want this version too

I don't get it; did they just slap TT's extra effort in the sword onto their retail release, and decide to call it an excluisve?

I'm seeing no obvious deco difference's that make this stand out as being exclusive - he looks as underwhelmingly painted as the standard version, they may as well have just made the sword an exclusive and given it a $50 paint job

It really doesnt look like it. That sword is very unimpressive too, there is no deco on it.

And yet it's a "special" exclusive

Lol, I wonder if TT will unveil their master sword during sdcc and show off how much better theirs is, like how they did with devs a year ago

Hasbro needs to stop making these exclusives for the overcrowded SDCC and offer them to the collectors who attend HasbroCon (nee BotCon) instead.

But that's where they're most likely to break even on their exclusives... besides, we can't say what they should or shouldn't do about exclusives for a convention that hasn't even gotten off the ground yet

Wow, I don't know if it is the big head, paint apps, or pose, but SDCC Ft. Max looks like an anorexic Titan...

Quick comparison pic till Logan does a better one.

Not a whole load different. Some extra details here and there, upper chest is white with red detailing instead of gray, lower chest has the sides painted gray instead of blue to break up monotony, inner feet are red, leg cannons seem to have added gray detail, in general quite a bit of added detail across the figure (on the forehead, thing on his left leg, thighs and shoulders).

I saw that too, I am really wondering if this is a bad angle, but then again we are lookinga t it dead on so what the heck?!

The SDCC toys are for the masses though. You can even buy them on HTS after for al colelctors to get. And Botcon has its own exclusives so I dont see the issue here.

Hmm...yeah, are there any differences between this and the retail version? I'd love to see a comparison shot. (also: I appreciate the new banner, guys

It's probably because the ab 'cannons' blend in with the background, making it hard to tell that he has a full abdomen
