Maybe it's just me, but those don't look different from the US versions. At all.

Vehicon can't come any sooner. Can't wait him to turn him into Animated Wheeljack.

Ah, man. Arcee looks like shit in package. :-(

Can't wait for that Vehicon though. I'm getting both Hasbro and Takara versions.

Bulkhead looks nice. The rest look the same.

Aren't we getting an... Wait Animated :)

I agree, they don't look that different. And please don't pack Arcee's lady parts like that.

I'm getting a lot of Vehicons, and if the Hasbro's are sold out, then I'll get the Takara's to complete the army.

Hope they also make thet jet Vehicon.

And they should make spider fembot.

Sticker aside, they're completely identical, except TakaraTomy still uses the old-fashioned twist ties :BANG_HEAD:

Can't tell if your frustration is aimed at me/my comment or the fact they use twist ties?

At the twist ties. I hate those things! I'm much better with pulling out knots.

Is Bumblebee's chest not fully transformed? It looks wrong.

That close-up of Prime appeals to me. It's got some strong colouring and crisp paint apps. Bumblebee also seems to be made of a richer yellow plastic. Not really digging the 'night-ops' Bulkhead look.

Bulkhead's different. He's shiny.

Wouldn't have expected Japan to mistransform robotits. Hell, I half-expected them to be remoulded, if not squishy ala Queen's Blade.

Yeah, that's kinda weird. For once the Japanese versions look way less attractive simply because of the way they're packaged. *shrug* I'm sticking with Hasbro anyway, so it makes no difference to me.

All of these looks sweet and all, but why is Megatron a Deluxe and Prime is a Voyager? I mean when i hear these names through out the Transformers no matter what series it is, i always and i mean always see Prime and Megatron very tall, bulky and just massive and hasbro and takara still dont get it right.

There's a Deluxe Megatron that comes in that "Entertainment Pack" with Deluxe Optimus. Takara's just released Megs on his own.

That is a really bad transformation of Arcee's robo-wonder-bra. Somebody needs more practice.

Considering this is the Japanese version makes it all the more surprising that that the tits were mistransformed by a perv.

Dude, I'm a friken Jap, and I'm no perv. Wanna know why? Because I'm not a stereotypical Asian.
