Hmm. Some serious thinking needs to be done here. Both of them are really good, cleverly engineered toys. Blitzwing's humanoid mode is a little bit lacking but on the other hand, his vehicle modes are both quite unusual ones in Transformers. ..
Hmmm. Finding this one much harder than last weeks "flip a coin" choice.

Or we could just happen to notice the colour of the Decepticon logo.

Definitely a deliberate decision: all the ones that have the purple are repainted from what they were in previous lines

Deliberate, the purple is. Obvious, it is. Correct, the theory of the Big Phil is.
(sorry, I'm not sure what happened there. I think, I was trying to talk like Cartoon Astrotrain, but ended up talking like... Yoda?!?!)

Tank is possibly cooler than a train Woah, woah, woah, woah, WOAH. Just. WOAH. WOAH. In NO universe are tanks cooler than trains. Trains trump everything.

There's something similar going on with red and repainted Autobots as well in 1985.

The shuttle mode is pretty neat too. Astrotrain wins hands down.

Let's just sit you down... there you go. Get you a nice cup of tea. Would you like a Transformer toy to play with? There you go, good buddy. You just sit nice and relaxed... nice and relaxed... and the nice paramedic is just going to give you a little injection in your arm... there you go... shhhh shhhh...

Ok, now Pinwig's safely asleep, yes trains are very cool, but they need tracks! Whereas tanks can roam freely, and they have a big gun.
But I voted Astrotrain anyway.

However your track argument is meaningless to a train that can turn into a SHUTTLE. Astrotrain can even fly in SPACE. He needs no trackery!
