    Okay... the in-box comic and techspec has now been posted up as well.

    A rough english translation of the mini-comic that didn't come with the toy (just be aware that you read right to left with the panels, because it is a Japanese publication).

    Having guiding arrows is a good idea, as it will help westerners who instinctively read left to right.

    Anyone have TT vs Hasbro comparison picks in the same lighting with the same camera yet? I hope I made the right choice by going Hasbro.

    Ask and ye shall receive... which goes to his blog posting here, giving us this quote:

    Now to Trypticon himself, the differences are…. they are…. um….
    ‘One of these Cons is not like the other one…. oh wait’
    The differences are non-existent!

    That’s right kiddies – there is absolutely no difference between the two versions – none! All the things you may have previously been lead to believe, such as the teal was darker and the purple richer in the Legends version are not correct. That the paint apps are built in and you don’t have to apply stickers like the Hasbro version – false. The only way I could keep the two from getting mixed up when taking photographs was that I had already applied some of the stickers to the Titans Return version. The same goes for their smaller partners.
