Will, I'm telling you, the differences are minimal. You can go for the Hasbro release on this one, and not regret it.

Edit: Ok upon 2nd inspection, maybe not "minimal", but I think you could save a buck (or beaver) here.
Wow, they did some justice to the minicon shoulder pads. And the stear skull on the fearing of the bike looks tuff. Reminds me of Oil Slick.

Does Hasbro's gun have red paint on it too? Its things like that which make me go nuts.

Also, while I like your beaver joke, we actually have loonies which is just as funny but true. Our dollar has a canadian goose on it (I know I know, BIG SHOCK!), and the name of that bird is also a loon, so we call it a loonie. But then we are made fun of for being Looney

This should sum it up, stay till the end: http://social.popsugar.com/Incredible-A ... KIT-763180

... and yes the Hasbro gun is nicely painted.

WOOT WOOT! thats what I wanted the most for some silly reason. Did you watch the video in the link I sent above?

Also, our coins are so darn canadian it hurts:

Hey! Looks like you've got yerself enough wildlife der ta getcha a couple a Timmy Ho's. Eh?
Video wouldn't load.

I'm really waiting to see TT's Megatronus. He's been announced, and we just haven't seen anything yet, right?

Beautiful pic!
Robot mode looks good but I am more envious of the alt mode.

Adding to this round-up post from a couple of days ago from the Takara Tomy Transformers Adventure lines, usual PR-tweetmaster Hisashi Yuki has shared a couple more images of the Warrior class TAV-36 Fracture in his Japanese paint-scheme, plus some additional TED-17 Bumblebee shots. Check them out below!

Dammit Japan, you really dont want us to forget for one second that you have a deluxe groove?!

"Oh, you want Deluxe Groove as a mass market release? Well why didn't you say so? I'll just make him a Japanese mall exclusive that you can only get in a bundle and NEVER use his mold again.

That way, everyone wins! Right?"

That's something I'd have expected from hasbro, not TT

My question is does Takara make the kind of money to afford building one-use molds just to appease collector's. I know there's a mark up on it but come on!
