Shin Densetsu · 01-05-2009, 09:13 PM

G2 Sideswipe sans neon green. That was my first Sideswipe toy and I am quite fond of it(just don't know where mine is).

Flint · 01-05-2009, 10:26 PM

G2 sideswipe would be cool. The lamborgini always looks good in black. I'm hoping he gets the inevitable red alert repaint too.

Optimus Scourge · 01-05-2009, 11:11 PM

Punch-CounterPunch. I got him as a kid and loved that toy, still do.

Even if it has to be exclusive, I am very tempted to make one, but I will hold out for now.

He can hold the G1 gun perfect, btw!

trebleshot · 01-06-2009, 07:09 PM

In order: Universe, Classic, Henkei. The chrome on the Henkei loses a few points.

Smokescreen GT · 01-07-2009, 05:47 PM

The new Universe SS is better IMO. His more G1 accurate color scheme without the extra chrome is total win for me.

trebleshot · 01-08-2009, 07:21 AM

I'd say around $100-150 USD. If it is the blue-eared variant, probably more.

trebleshot · 01-08-2009, 07:53 AM

Well, Hasbro Prime would win hands down because there's no such thing as Henkei Prime.

However, between Hasbro Prime and Henkey Convoy, I would pick Prime anyway for three reasons:

1. Same mold as Henkei Convoy, so no loss there
2. Easier to purchase via a trip to WM (when it was first released)
3. Cheaper.

If the colors really bothered me, I could fix it myself and still be cheaper than buying Henkei Convoy.

bigkid24 · 01-08-2009, 11:37 AM

But if price and ease of purchase weren't issues then what would you pick?

I got Henkei Convoy for the retail price of Hasbro Prime.

Ktulu · 01-08-2009, 11:56 AM

Henkei Convoy is one of the many with changes so minimal that I don't see the fuss. I'm more than happy with the Hasbro version of the toy.

I do want the Crystal variant of Henkei Convoy though. Not out of preference over Hasbro Prime...but because it looks like candy, y'know, like transforming candy? However, I can't afford the bastard.

Hey, that's my motto

GogDog · 01-08-2009, 04:41 PM

If you count Henkei, that is my favorite out of all three.

Kluster Bombs · 01-08-2009, 05:03 PM

I love the new one.

The color just stands out better IMO.

Flint · 01-08-2009, 05:09 PM

I love them all, but then again I'm a Starcream junkie so you know. I still need to get the new one though.

I don't own the Henkei version, but truth be told the chrome doesn't really do it for me.

Candy Convoy? Sounds delicious.

But i have to say the Hasbro version is just fine, no need to seek out the normal Takara version.

Now Henkei Megs is a different story.
