Oh Slugslinger you magnificent beast. You were my very first G1 Targetmaster, I simply must have this modern version.
How much of your soul is left these days Va'al?

They should not have painted Octones shoulder pieces red. I get it's suppose to show possession and when those pieces are down to make him look more like the cartoonbuy they kill his arm articulation.

Gotta say, the extra detailing on Slugslinger's shoulders and quadruple-nipples really help him pop. I do prefer the bottom of the cockpits being white from Hasbro's version though.
Bumblebee is a straight-up improvement, but eh, I'm happy with my Hasbro version.

I admit he looks like Sonic due to the color paint applied. my mind says "Is he gonna collect Rings or some Emeralds?"

must admit that i was confused as to what that starscream head was supposed to be. An interesting idea but a bit poorly executed i think.
Otherwise some lovely toys, but as usual I'll be sticking to the hasbro versions.

Simple
Stole Quake's idea and turned it into a minimashed Starscream
Sneaky and Clever-wise
There's a chance now that me might get an Headmaster of Krok
There's also Quake released in Japan( Hasbro, of course), and Takara Tomy get their creativity of creating a mini-headmaster thus, Ghost Starscream (no not the UW one, the Headmaster one.) is born.
Let's Backtrack a bit, look at Quake's Head
and then look at the Starscream one. Confirmed Repainted

Cheers! well spotted.
Also though I do prefer takara's additional paint apps on the TR figures - that face on spike... looks a bit creepy.

So... yeah, there doesn't seem to be much of a difference between Hasbro and Takara Perceptors at all. And despite the lack of a yellow headstripe thing, I think I prefer the minor differences on Hasbro's. Lucky me~

It's essentially the exact same as Hasbro Cerebros.

It looks different different right? Those are two different cerebros heads. What the hell is the point in that? Just use the Hasbro mold Takara.
