...and we dont REALLY know the full deal on this release OR what it will officially (officially in your hands not "official" pics) look like. I ALWAYS see fans bickering over a toy that isnt right, but quite often, when its released it looks 20 X's better. So we will see.

 

What im betting is he WILL have short stacks, but they wont appear as short as they do in THESE pics. If you look at the 1st "official" pics of him at BotCon, he HAS long stacks. So maybe Hasbro only had one of the old ones to take pictures of, and they MAY just give him long or longer (or shorter then the last release) stacks after all. We dont REALLY know.

 

I do however bet that he will not have them. But you never know, laws change, ppl in office change, and opinions change. So who knows. We can only assume

 

*also he might just have new scupted parts or differences. It looks like they may give him a different color scheme (G1 toon maybe?) to offer collectors something new. And essentially this IS for collectors, Aoijunni's right & its all about the Marketing strategy <(sp*) and who their merketing consumers are.

just for the record, the short stacks don't look anywhere near as bad as they could (i've got a US Pepsi Prime from Mt. Dew). personally, i'm all for soft plastic stacks >_>

I think I could get behind plastic stacks, as long as they were painted correctly. The robot mode benefits from the long smokestacks.

I hate the fact that I'm totally going to buy this.

I hear ya Ultra Mattus! :lol :roll its too true too true

might get this depending on the final price but i still like the takara #0 bookstyle reissue the best! :thumb
