    Inferno hands down. Much better mould, much nicer colours.

    But neither work as movie toys.

    I dislike both repaints. Garish, and in the case of Inferno, yet another overused mould with a "paint it red and call it Inferno" release.

    Mudflap is a solid toy, albeit a bit bright. Inferno is gimmicky and has a disproportionate and silly looking robot mode.

    The reason I asked this question is cos I just cracked mine open. I recall both being mediocre toys at best, Red Alert being pretty joe average. However, last night when I opened them, I was very very impressed with Inferno. He's a far better toy than I anticipated by a long shot. Sure, he's still disproportionate but he's a far better toy than I ever remembered him being. The red's really nice and the clear blue plastic is wicked.

    I still think Mudflap is better tho. Inferno's head being apparent in alt mode, his strange proportions and flat coloured side windows weigh him down. Just surprised how much I'd rate Inferno. I'm not sure if it's the paint job or what but jsut wanted to see what others thought.

    Well, the reason why I like Mudflap is b/c he's going straight to the Classics part of my collection. Gonna ask lcz128 to repaint the face and we'll have G1 Erector.

    I just learnt that Inferno is Armada version? It's doesn't come across as a duplicate figure to me since I don't collect Armada. :P So it's kinda considered new to me. But I certainly prefer the cybertron Mudflap's colour.

    Then again, we crazy fellas will most probably buy both anyway. Just for character's sake.
