They look the same to me.

I'm hoping for the white.
They might have a somewhat iridescent quality, meaning the color changes depending on how the light hits the paint details. That would be pretty cool to pull off on a figure.

I appreciate the color diversity. In my opinion, this looks better than thiswilliam-james88 wrote: One thing I am wondering is that if the colour on Afterburner is important (which it is), then how are you ok with the green on the Hasbro version? Is it not as big an issue?

I would still prefer the Hasbro version, because of the orange. I don't mind the look of the blue (or the green, for that matter), but I'm going with whichever one has the main color that I like better.william-james88 wrote: But would it still look better if you flipped the wheel 180 in the back and had that nice blue add to the red and white colour pallet?
Takarakaiser was never confirmed, but Hasbrokaiser will likely be shown at SDCC.RiddlerJ wrote:Whatever happened with Liokaiser? Is that still coming?

To add to that question, chances are he'll be a Platinum Edition instead of a Combiner Wars release, which could explain why TakaraTomy hasn't touched him yet (or ever will, aside from a straight re-release a la Platinum Trypticon/Dinosaurer).

Imagine how many people would soil themselves if Liokaiser were re-released by takara

I honestly think the fanrage would come second to the "omg we can all buy this now for less than the price of a house", I honestly don't care if the head was black, I'd be so stoked to be able to buy that set...
I can imagine the fanrage that JelZe was referring to as coming from the Japanese fans due to their preference for cartoon-accuracy. In the case of Hasbro's Liokaiser, it is neither show- nor toy-accurate, so if Japan got it as a USA Edition, they might feel letdown that it didn't get Liokaiser's look as correct as it could have been.D-Maximus_Primal wrote:Hellscream9999 wrote:JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:D-Maximus_Primal wrote:JelZe GoldRabbit wrote:RiddlerJ wrote:Whatever happened with Liokaiser?

Yeah, the price would be outrageous potentially, and all the people sacrificing childs college tuition money (or their own) to own one. And i would not care, I would own a Liokaiser. That is fact

I guess JelZe and I both thought you meant the CW Liokaiser, since that was the only one being discussed at the time.D-Maximus_Primal wrote:Sabrblade wrote:I can imagine the fanrage that JelZe was referring to as coming from the Japanese fans due to their preference for cartoon-accuracy.

If I'm understanding you correctly, I was talking about the original toy being re-released, not about the Hasbro thing that has been seen on the bottom of those platinum sets

And I was aiming at CW Liokaiser with that, not a G1 reissue. Platinum Editions seem be past the G1 reissue phase, so we can stop equating them now. Plus, remember that TT released Platinum Trypticon in Japan?
