    Cant tell you about the henkei version, as I do not own it, but since they share a mold I cannot see why the shoulder launcher would not fit.

    Henkei has a red head, a siren that doesn't obstruct the engine mount and BLING!

    Also all the markings on the Takara are G1 all the way. Much better looking if you ask me to. Will only be getting the Hasbro one if cheap or board.

    Yeah, if price isn't an obstacle (and it should start to be less of one), I way prefer Henkei.

    Query: My Red Alert is a little loose about his right wrist and legs. Is that a general thing or a luck of the draw thing?

    My Alerts right leg is not quite as tight as his left but it's by no means loose. Both fists seem to be okay on mine also. Having said that, mine disappointingly has scuffing and scratches on the front Fire Rescue emblem and on another small part of the bonnet.

    Henkei version is better.

    I happen to agree with you, but can you give us any insight as to _why_ you believe this is the case?

    For me:

    - the red head
    - the "fire chief" details are more G1 accurate

    Having seen Tinyjazz's Henkei Alert I'd have to agree that it blows the Generations release outta the water. It just has a lot more 'pop' factor, especially when paired with that shoulder cannon accessory.
