I seem to be alone in preferring Hasbro Blurr to Takaras. I really don't like the Sunbow darker blue on the Takara version, much refer the toy colours on Hasbros. I'm the opposite. Compared to each other Hasbro's just looks too plain and the same colour. |

It's the exact opposite of what I usually like. I'll usually go for G1 cartoon accuracy over just about anything.

Ta chaps. I know who Cancer is, what I meant was, the mould being used for that with Shockwave - is it being released by Hasbro as something else? I see looking back up thread that it's Crashbash? so this is the confusion then about releases, presumably in the US Crashbash as a head will come with a little vehicle of some sort? which isn't going to come with the Legends Shockwave, so is Takara releasing that with someone else?
I think I just need to stick to Hasbro to stop myself going insane.

Yes, Takara releases a repaint of Crashbash's Dinosaur with Skullcruncher. Hardhead has a repaint of Terribull'a tank vehicle. As yet Terribull hasn't appeared with a Japanese Legend and the vehicles for Nightbeat and Loudmouth/Siren/GoShooter haven't turned up with a deluxe.

Just seen a comparison of both Hardheads, now facing a dilemma. Usually it would be Takara hands down, but do I want toy accurate or show accurate, I cant decide!

Yes indeed. Looks like Takara for Scourge. Very nice. He'll upstage CW Cyclonus.

So I'm getting Legends Scourge and Blurr through HLJ, instead of the hasbro releases. Both TRs are just bland, and almost monochromatic.
Though I may snag a few TR Scourges as sweeps.
But HLJ's prices are only slightly higher than american retail, and probably the same as BBTS would charge for the hasbro releases.

Loving Deadlock. Really need to reacquire a Drift.
Am I right in thinking Drift doesn't get the sword till he becomes Drift?

You are correct. He's Deadlock until he goes to this wierd spiritual colony, gets taught how to use the soulsword, and becomes a reborn whatever. Renames himself Drift.
It's kind of boring, for McCarthy.

Takara looking at TR Hardhead be like
"You know what this tank needs? A tank."
"Hey, you're right! We have another smaller tank right here!"
"Can he wear the tank?"
"Unfortunatly no. But he can shoot with the tank."
"Let's do it. More tank!"
Later
Yuki: "It's Hardhead, now with 20% more tank!"
