    Link broken - Here's the correct link

    Takara Tomy Mall limited edition release

    Hopefully, there's a Hasbro release.

    Think the contrast between black and grey looks pretty bad in jet mode. It's enough that it looks like another character to me altogether.

    That does look a bit odd... hopefully it's just a prototype shot and not the finished product. Although, I must admit I'll be trying to get him regardless.

    I think it's for cartoon accuracy on the robot mode(?)

    Yeah agreed. Those robot pics look like they might be photoshopped, the kneecaps at least... i'm assuming that purple is accurate to something, but tbh i don't really like it at all!

    hmm. I dunno. I want it because I want most of the Masterpiece line but my Ramjet experience is making me wary of getting any other jets....

    Not just for QC and general fiddlyness, but value as well. Having just opened and transformed my MP Ratchet and seeing the new thread about MP Inferno and what they come with makes this one harder to justify. People already complaining about the face, why not do swappable ones like other recent figures

    The knee colouring is in the movie at least:



    However the black or dark grey colouring is debatable. I think the G1 toy is black, but animation is dark grey. But remember that black is often reprsented as dark grey in animation in order to show details and shadow.

    Regardless whether it is black or dark grey (I'm not fussed with either actually) it needs to be uniform throughout, and not the mix-match we're seeing in the pics. As others have pointed out, it looks wrong.

    Totally agree with you as i'm pretty sure there was no black on him in the cartoon from memory it was just a slightly darker shade of grey than on the wings?

    Maybe a more cartoon accurate + line later down the track cause they havent quite hit their profit quota for this mould yet

    Still looks very nice, my only gripe is that i was hoping Dirge would be next
