Are you sure? Skydive had lightning bolts on his wings in the cartoon, which the Takara figure has while the Hasbro figure doesn't. Though the G1 toy had them too, this just makes Takara's version both show- and toy-accurate while Hasbro is accurate to neither.
And Fireflight's cartoon model used its toy's blue and yellow wing stripes, but made them thinner. Hasbro's Firefly uses the toy-accurate thick stripes while Takara's Firebolt uses the show-accurate thin stripes.
And though they're not shown in these galleries, Hasbro's Air Raid uses the G1 toy's silver/red/yellow wing stripes while Takara's Air Rider uses the show model's simiplified solid white stripes.
Takara's are definitely the more show-accurate in regards to wing decos.
Im kinda going off memory of the G1 cartoon. Its not easy to find images of the alt mode cartoon images online. I dont think skydive had any blue on his tail in the cartoon like the takara version has. But the toy had some blue on the tail. That was the biggest eye grabber that made me think the takara limbs were more toy accurate. Not sure about fireflight. Were still awaiting the hasbro slingshot images.
