Well, the long ramps are now attached to his arms instead of his legs, and he has no wheels on his legs (as far as I can see) not to mention that he may not even be able to bend that way due to being engineered backwards now
Still doesn't have the ramps or wheels...
Fort Max never had ramps so that shouldn't be a complaint.

Ah well. Here's hoping they don't just slap a dinosaur head onto the Metroplex mold and call it Trypticon. Though perhaps I shouldn't give them any ideas....

Oh, don't worry about that. It's already been confirmed that Trypticon will have a totally new mold.

How would they've done the knee guns?

Attach them under the ramps or sink them into the ramp sections, they have enough clearance in metro's vehicle mode to be attached underneath, or they could've had them recessed under the ramps

We get it, you don't like it, you're not going to buy him (though just like those who vow to never EVER see the movies ... they do anyway), why do you feel the need to constantly harp on about it? It's like you're trying to convince others to have your opinion.
meh ... whatever. I'll just be happy to get him at an affordable price and then make a bet with someone for a second one that I'll never receive.

That actually sounds kinda cool - wouldn't buy that, but cool nonetheless

Now I really want them to make a Dinosaur head Titan Master. #AltModeClobber2017

The Hasbro looks fine to me though. I don't see what's dismal about it compared to the Takara version unless you're saying being without a headmasters-accurate colour scheme is a massive flaw.

No hip cannons, no sword, maybe possibly only a selection of sound fx, no Scamper repainted as Cog, no hand guns.(Takara may give us some of those....if not all)

They're only giving us the swords. Which have only been shown in silhouettes so we don't even know how good they may or may not look.
And saying one version is better than the other based on what might be included based on pure speculation is just... not correct. Hey, Takara Clobber is clearly better because he might come with a full Voyager Grimlock body.
