Afterburner – Combiner Wars (2016) & Unite Warriors (2016)
I generally like some of the elective color choices Hasbro used on their version of the Technobots but I am not a fan of the Halloween-ish theme on Hasbro Afterburner.

Prowl – G1, Universe (2008) & Henkei (2008)
The differences between the Hasbro and Takara versions are minor and mostly revolve around the use of some chrome. The Henkei version uses chrome on the rear spoiler, shoulder cannons and gun. I prefer the black gun on the Hasbro version.
Hun-Gurrr – G1 & Hasbro Power of the Primes (2018)
Hasbro succeeds in updating Hun-Gurrr’s color scheme with the use of new red and baby blue highlights. I’m curious what Takara’s version will look like but I worry it will be a blander but more cartoon accurate paint scheme.
Soundwave – G1, Titans Return (2016), Legends (2016) & Poneley Edition
The extra bits of color and different color scheme on the chest compartment make the Hasbro version superior to the Takara edition. In this instance, Takara’s slavish adherence to cartoon color accuracy does not benefit the figure.
I am indifferent to the color of the visors too because I think both colors work. I do have a slight preference to the banana yellow on the leg of the Takara edition over the lemon color on the Hasbro version.
