Re: HASBRO vs. TAKARA opinions?
I'm glad this thread was started, I don't have any United figures yet, just the Hasbro. For me, most of the Henkei figures were better than the Classic but I made few mistake purchases like Bumblebee (looks friendly compared to Hasbro), Jetfire (looks plain compared to Hasbro) and Ironhide (is it the grey parts that look bad compared to the black parts?).
Now I'm loving my Hasbro Jazz, Wheeljack, Kup, etc but I'm wondering are the United versions better for these ultimate figures? Jazz could use a little more detail, Kups face mould is weird to me, Wheeljack is awesome but his eyes should be blue... I'd like to see some United figures in specialty stores in person first I think. General Tekno's United Megatron blue my socks off, my Henkei Megatron looks terrible now!
