Yes, it is a massive difference. All complaining here is highly justified.
I'll make it clear again, I love the look of the mould, no arguements there, but the finished product is so far off the "burger shot" that you can't ignore it. It's not right when even myself is thinking that I HAVE to paint it to get it looking like it should.

Well, i think any of the following events could be interpreted as conjecture:
The assumption that the initial photos were official product shots.
The assumption that the next set of photos was a prototype.
The assumption that the next set of photos is not a prototype.
Possibly more. Since no one has seen anything in person, it's all conjecture.

They don't like like "burger shots" to me.![]()
No it's not.
The first pictures were clearly chopped. No assumptions that it was a final toy, but an indication of what to expect. And don't try and argue this point, you and everyone else knows exactly what I mean.
The second lot of pictures were factory shots, and yes, they looked like a prototype in comparison. Of course we don't expect the colours to look as deep and stunning as the promo pictures, but until this toy, we did expect the colour schemes to match as they always have in the past. The promo and the finished product are very radically different.
It was then revealed by an in box shot that they indeed were the real thing.
And now you start another thread with the same pictures in it. Are you digging yourself into your own arguement for the sake of it?

I think were on different pages, but in hindsight, I shouldn't have started a new thread. Mods, can we merge?
From the IDW forum under Global fan-forums Oct Hasbro Q&A:
woot!!Sometimes test shots come in and all of the molds are not cast in the correct colors. But that's why test shots exist, so that we can catch those problems before the toy is produced. In this example, an image of a Cyclonus testshot was released and fans had issues. But rest assured, the mold is going to remain purple and match the initial prototype image.
