The Takara one is on the left, the TRU Hasbro one is on the right.

I am not really feeling much for this set. Its very poor overall when compared to the past couple of years.

I do feel that it's tougher challenge to put together another themed set that's as good as the last two years when you're focusing on an alt universe that doesn't exist yet and only the niche of Botcon set holders will ever know about. The past 2 years had underlying premises universal to the whole G1 concept.

To be honest, why can't they do the combiner teams, without the combining. Those would still be loved irrespective of the fact of wheter they combine. Teams like the Stunticons and Combaticons have range of figs they're existing designs could be based on as long as you change colour and head mould.

Really dislike the look of the repaint, it's a nice mold, but those colours do it no justice. Still it looks nicer than the ebay version we saw earlier, less KO-ey.

This year's overall Botcon set is just plain garbage. When you look at the coolness of last year's set, it just makes you realise that the designers had to give us a mediocre set - just to balance it out.

I can definitely see the Botcon people being stuck with a tonne of these sets for years to come...

pulse, agree its nothing exciting but still something to look forward to i guess
