Everything else stays the same.

I love that one too, it will look great no matter how its displayed.<br /><br />I know this one is supposed to be the G1 colors version, but I wouldn't put it past Hasbro to release it one more time in the 'exact' G1 colors, both Vortex and Blast Off are way off, the rest are pretty close.<br /><br />And you're rightEric Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09824920224981897855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741776401019075253.post-1350728851194868642012-07-22T22:11:20.651-04:002012-07-22T22:11:20.651-04:00Well - this IS the G1 color version.

You can check my site, I did a short post on it. <br /><br />I for one love both version. I think this line is getting an exceptional amount of heat from fans, but I think it stems from 3rd party production.

But having him in-hand I feel a lot differently than I thought I would. I too was going to display him in his individual modes but I like the combined mode a lot more than I thought I would. Hasbro's photography team did this gut a real disservice.Eric Warrenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09824920224981897855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1741776401019075253.post-55728707976311098322012-07-22T16:55:59.052-04:002012-07-22T16:55:59.052-04:00I also like the individual forms, but not the comb...I also like the individual forms, but not the combined mode.
