Universe/Classics 2.0 Sightings

I thought you weren't getting a Silverbolt...? ;) (I think I can remember you saying he didn't push your buttons or something :rolleyes: :D)

Oh I'm getting Silverbolt. It's Powerjugs that I dislike.

What if they made a bra for Powerjugs? ;)

I'm not going there.

The pictures they showed with the items on their website have different colours to the US versions (i.e. more authentic Japanese colours). I should be most annoyed if they turned out to be otherwise. I'm only getting the 3 together to save postage and get the authentic colours.

Also, they're showing an October availability - they would seem consistent with a later, Japanese release, yes?

Yeah they are called 'USA Editions' because they come in Hasbro boxes but the figures are painted considerably different with the exception of Onslaught who has minor differences in paint detailing, particularly the head but is otherwise the same.

Chrome spiky bits on the front as well, if memory serves...

Toy Fair Tokyo had finished versions. No chrome on any of the Ultras.

I think Onslaught's plastic colouring is more dark blue on Tomy's version.

But other than the face paint you mentioned, he's exactly the same, even down to the references to longtime TF fan Monzo.

There is a pic in which Silverbolt's thighs look to be gold chromed.
