    If the AUD can get itself up higher against the JPY then I would absolutely consider getting one from Japan. Otherwise I'm undecided... at the current cost of the toy plus postage I might wait for the Hasbro version... although I fear that Hasbro will somehow screw something up. Gah! (-_-)

    Meh... there's nothing really there that you wouldn't already know. The article is written for people who know nothing about Transformers.

    Well lets not get ahead of ourselves, TakTom have been screwing things up much more than Hasbro lately.

    So I hear, though so far I've gotten of ok. But Hasbro still has a negative MP score from 2 different releases of MP Prime inferior to the Takara Version, and a positive with One improved Starscream.

    So there score is -1 + -1 + 1 = -1.

    Yup. From the episode "Grimlock's New Brain" where, for a short while, Grimlock didn't act like a raging retard in a post-season 2 cartoon appearance!

    I'd say he was more a docile retard in Season 3...

    As of late, the problem with Takara-Tomy though is not so much the paint or materials used, its them allowing toys out of the factory with horrendous manufacturing issues.

    I have been burned by two Henkei so far with Ironhide and Streak. Streak was the worse, much worse that I needed to buy a Universe version to 'repair' it.
