    The Amazon Unicron has 'Decepticon' on the box Also, I didn't realise he still had the light-up hand (I thought they got rid of it).

    Unfortunately my Armada box is buried under a tone of other boxes but if memory serves me, I believe that version was also labelled a Decepticon, I think it is purely labelled as such so that parents and the un-informed can identify the toy as a bad guy.

    Either way, I am really considering picking this one up as I decided to skip the Takara 2010 issue.

    I'd love it if this was recoloured as Windsweeper:

    That's DOTM Air Raid from Wave 5. Which is kind of confusing as there's already been a Japanese DOTM Air Raid.

    Windsweeper's this guy: http://www.ntfa.net/universe/english...ar=Windsweeper and here: http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Windsweeper

    Indeed, hence the potential confusion about two completely different MechTech Deluxe Air Raids. Although amusingly on the back of his packaging, the Japanese version is at one point referred to as Air Laid. (The Transformers equivalent of the Mile High Club, perhaps. ) The US version's MechTech weapon looks sweet. Plus it's one of the few that are actually 100% appropriate for vehicle mode.
