G1 Colored Masterpiece Starscream

So, it looks like Hasbro has announced a cartoon accurate version of the Masterpiece Starscream. I really like it this way and don’t know why Takara didn’t make it this way from the beginning. Their main argument seemed to be for realistic purposes but after seeing how it looks with the cartoon coloring I don’t think it looks that out of place. It looks more like a paint scheme for a show plane like the Thunderbirds or group similar to that. Sure it doesn’t look like a combat paint scheme, but honestly the Takara one is too dark and green of a gray to look that realistic either. There’s links for comparison below.

Survey Time!

OK, so I finally just finished watching The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya. I really liked this show, it’s a shame it was only 14 episodes I wasn’t ready for it to be over. I’ve heard rumors of a continuation of the series. Judging by it’s popularity I think there’s a good shot at it, it’s not time to kill the cash cow just yet. So, in lieu of more episodes I’ll have to fill my obsessive fandom somehow, so I started looking for figures of course! I really liked all the characters in the show, they each had their own unique style to them, but I think the main character Haruhi Suzumiya would be my favorite. So I’m looking mostly at figures of her. I’ve found these two so far School Uniform or Bunny Suit. Tell me what you think below!

Which Haruhi Figure should I get?
