    I'm tempted... but hopefully I'll be strong as the difference this time is not as much as Greenscream vs G1 Colour Starscream...

    I like this guy very much and recommend it to anyone who doesn't have the Japanese release already but I don't think that the differnce justifies it for anyone who already owns the Japanese one.

    You could sell it. But you might want to sell it before the Hasbro one is released - people won't be as willing to buy a Takara version after the Hasbro one comes out, and even if they are, they won't be willing to pay as much.

    If I were you I'd display one in robot mode and the other in jet mode. That's what I do with my two MP Starscreams - Takara version in jet mode and Hasbro version in robot mode. IMHO it looks better than displaying a Japanese MP in box since they have no windows from which to view the toy. Just my 2c.

    Not a bad idea, but i'm severely short on space.

    I have the Takara Tomy version still MISB since I dont have the room to display it OR the USA Edition Starscream I got for the purpose of displaying..

    So, this is skipable.
