Transformers questions by newbies, and not-so-newbies

I suspect that they're there to simply add bulk to his forearms. Any other theories?

You can get a good boxed one for around $450-500 USD. Loose is about $200USD.

Yeah, that's around about what I paid for mine
(but the current state of the dollar may mean yours might set you back a fair bit more... )

Hi can we get someone to post the differences between:

1) Hasbro Universe Silverbolt / Takara Universe Silverbolt
2) Hasbro Universe Onslaught / Takara Universe Onslaught
3) Hasbro Universe Powerglide / Takara Universe Powerglide

Photos of packaging and figures will be greatly appreciated. Tks

Silverbolt
Hasbro
- Light grey plastic on jet, lower arms and legs
- Burgundy torso
- Bright red biceps, landing gear and missile
- Dark grey shoulders, thighs and head

TakaraTomy
- Bright white plastic on jet, arms, legs and head
- Red torso, biceps landing gear and missile

Onslaught
Hasbro
- Green/grey plastic
- Black head with silver decos
- Single pulse siren (defective)

TakaraTomy
- Dark blue/green plastic
- Green/blue head with silver face plate (like the cartoon)
- Siren will now play as long as you hold down the button (fixed)

Powerglide
Hasbro
- Predominantly white plastic with red trim

TakaraTomy
- Reverse coloured, so it's red plastic with white trim


Packaging is exactly the same. USA Edition just means they don't want to make new Japanese packaging.

Onslaught
Hasbro
- Single pulse siren (defective)

TakaraTomy
- Siren will now play as long as you hold down the button (fixed)

Oooh! Didn't know that.

Damn. Onslaught is the only one I was prepared to skip, as it wasn't different enough with the colours to me. The sound feature on the Hasbro one sucks though, as I figured it was meant to have a longer sounding siren.

Thanks for the list though FFN, as I saw the request, but wasn't keen on trying to find the answers, or guess at them without having the JP ones yet to compare.
