I guess with him being a larger voyager sized toy, there are more nooks and crannies they can hide his two chain-gun pieces away, unlike his original deluxe sized toy :cool:Quote:

Meh, i'll stick with the Hasbro Rhinox and Waspinator
Wow! :eek:
That Waspinator looks WAY off, not a fan of those hues or finishes at all - Rhinox looks much more palatable, but the only real pro above his Western iteration is that his "Chainguns of Doom" are painted...
Didn't think this'd be the case, but I think I too will be sticking with the Hasbro releases - They at least seem far more "Toy Accurate" in colour. :o
Hmm... Ill wait to see how the actual paint apps on the Hasbro version turn out, as the existing pics look like photoshop.
Looking at these figs, can Has/Tak please do a proper Dinobot!
Oh dear...
Oh, come ON TakTom! All you have to do to make these guys shine (pun not intended) is go metallic for the ROBOT mode parts, and leave the ORGANIC parts non-shiny. Like in the show.
Don't pull a Springer again, please...
I agree, not worth the extra cash!Quote:

Well, having digested the pics some more, I wish I could say I knew which versions I'd be pre-ordering - but I can't.
I think I'll have to wait for some comparison pics before deciding which Rhinox and Waspinator will adorn my shelf.
Given that in Hasbro's case we've only seen photoshopped, painted prototypes - I reckon that's a fairly sensible approach... that Takara Waspinator though!?! :confused:Quote:

I like the colours but is it just me or does the plastic look really cheap and nasty?
It's definitely not just you man :(Quote:

I'll probably go TT's version for the two of them :)
I'm sorry but all I can think of is modern GPS, Especially Rhinox:eek:Quote:

Skids
Goldfire
Waspinator
Dreadwing
I don't mind this lots colours, but I agree the plastic will be nasty, Hasbro's always looking to save a buck.
I'm still not sold on the last batch of TT versions shown either.
If Rhinox is anything to go by, we won't be missing much if they don't come out here.Quote:

Well, I think I'm left with little choice than to buy the Hasbro and Takara versions of Waspy and Rhinox. The Hasbro versions to play with, and the Takara versions to sit beside Henkei Cheetor and Dinobot just because they're chromed.
Just to clarify -- I'm not overly impressed with having to do this :(
I like the big ol' Predacon and G2 Decepticon symbols on Dreadwing and Waspinators packaging.
Waspinator should really have blue eyes...
Wait, they're blue there. Weird.Quote:

We were all looking forward to these, but these pictures don't fill me with as much excitement as the announcement did. These had better be looking good in person.
Skids is the only one I am interested in and even though I would prefer a darker blue I will probably still buy it:o
Well, I've bit the bullet and pre-ordered all 4.
Whats wrong with Skids' baby blue? It's so strikingly... blue. It just pops so wonderfully.
I don't mind the shade myself, but worry about the quality of the material.Quote:

The lack of paint on his guns is disappointing but I think he looks fine otherwise. He even has the little Maximal symbols on his head!Quote:
