TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

Hey Transfans, up to this point, we're starting to see the differences between the Hasbro version of FoC Metroplex and the Takara version. So far, they have announced the following:

- "True-to-G1" White on the body
- Some additional Chrome Apps
- A second red hand gun

What are your takes on this so far?

EDIT: My bad, folks... I forgot to put a "Both" option on the poll and it will not let me change it.

Re: TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

I don't care for the more G1 esthetic, I would be satisfied with it coming with one gun, like really, its Metroplex, its a city with turrets and cannons. Anyways, I'm not paying more for this massive figure.

Re: TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

I'm tempted to answer "SDCC version"...

Re: TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

I'll stick with 2 Hasbros. 1 bot and 1 city mode. The bot can have both guns

Re: TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

Hasbro, because I doubt the Japanese version is going to be worth the over twice as much price tag he's holding for a slightly nicer colour scheme and extra gun.

Added your both option

Re: TG23 Metroplex vs Hasbro Metroplex

I would normally go for the Takara version if it is a little nicer and more accurate, but in this case the price difference is just too great. Not to mention the cost of shipping if it to be bought from HLJ or wherever.
