Will Takara's Masterpiece Starscream G1 colours be different to Hasbro's?

I already have the Hasbro Version of MP starscream, but im thinking of placing a pre-order for the Takara Version which is due out in Feb.

Does anyone know if it will differ to Hasbro's offering? I am particularly interested in whether or not it will come in the traditional Takara MP packaging or just the Hasbro 'classics' style packaging.

If i pre-order now and I can get it for around $100AUD landed, this will probably go up if the Takara version is alot better than the hasbro version.

also can anyone tell me what this is:

i found it on a pre-sale auction of MP starscream, but the seller doesnt know much about the product or image itself.
