    Pardon my ignorance. Is the Takara Optimus toy different to the Hasbro?

    roller is silver instead of blue.
    the box is full cardboard.
    the reds and blues on prime are more toon accurate while hasbro is more 80s toy accurate

    The blue is a lot darker and quite striking from what I have seen.

    Hence I want this version on my MP shelf.

    Takara Prime is painted red while Hasbro is red plastic.
    Eyes are a darker blue on Takara. Looks kinda dead.
    Inside of trailer is painted on Takara, Gray plastic on Hasbro
    Takara doesn't have paint apps on the running lights, Hasbro does.

    Really it comes down to what scheme you prefer. I'm more than happy with my Hasbro version, but can see why others prefer Takara.

    Since Japanese retailers have this listed it must be an actual Takara reissue and not the normal Hasbro HK reissue of Takara Tomy product.

    Remember the rumour last year that said Takara would reissue MP-10 and some other MP's? I wonder if that rumor might be panning out despite the initial scepticism of it.

    Since I need a MP-10 Matrix for MP-22 and I passed on a cheap Hasbro MP-10 with Vector Sigma and I'm not taking my Matrix out of my existing MP-10 (cause principles) I might consider getting this reissue if I can get him cheap enough. Then I'd have a MP-10 to display as a TRUKK!
    I have a list of all G1 characters that have been released in CHUG form. You can find it here. Please feel free to let me know if I got anything wrong so I can fix it.

    Ordered HLJ. So the RUMOURS last year was correct but it was dismissed as a hoax?

    Yeah the rumours was SHOT down, you wonder who gave that info. This means mp11, red alert, and the rest will come in "possibly"
