I know this is probably v.v.v.old news, but it's new to me!

 

 

In the TFC20 Kup & Wheelie, Wheelie is yellow & orange instead of just orange. I just see it today & I've never heard anything about this before.

 

Does everybody know this? Have I just had my head up my hoop!?!  :tard

Pics?

I haven't heard anyone mention anything like that, but then again, is there anyone out there who likes Wheelie so much that they would have both the original and the reissue and notice such a difference??  Highly unlikely!

Only difference I noticed between the original and reissue was the face - original was plain orange and reissue was grey with blue eyes.

Pics?

You can see it a bit in this pic. I swear though, he's like banana colour when you see it in person.

 

Can anyone who bought the set double-confirm this? I took a bit of dodgy gear as a kid so I don't always believe my own eyes!!!  :tard

It's meant to be show accurate (Takara always goes that way) so I'm gonna guess he really is Yellow and your eyes aren't fooling you.

I own both. They're pretty much the same except the face is painted. And the sticker is slimmer.

 

You have to remember colors appear different depending on lighting, type of camera, etc.

I see it at a convention last weekend, not just a photo. The link was just to confirm it dude!

You were probably seeing the "Dion" repaint that came with the ehobby "Orion Pax".... that one is yellow.  The wheelie that comes with the Targetmaster Kup is the same as the original except the face is gray w/blue eyes compared to the original which was all orange.

No no no!

 

The Dion repaint is yellow with blue feet and comes in a G1 style box. The original Wheelie is light orange with dark orange feet. This one was yellow woth orange feet!

 

*Is now gonna have to buy the sodding thing just to set his mind straight*

 

 

edit:

My missus (eyewitness #2) has just confirmed that I'm not a total smackhead. She said "It was definitely yellow, [i made a point of pointing it out to her,] but it could be construed as a very slightly orangy-yellow. It's a lot more yellow than the original."

(She knows the original well enough, as she often places it in various torture positions; in Trypticons mouth, hanging from the lights, being stamped on by her Action Man, etc!)

 

Eyewitness #3

The missus's Bruv Karl: "It was yellow. Stop arguing with your geeky friends about something so trivial and talk about World peace"

(Obviously NOT a fan of TFs, but he does like wrestling!)
