Heraldofunicron's collection: Onslaught

So, this is going to be my first official "review". And who did I choose? Bruticus body, Combaticon leader and all around Badass ONSLAUGHT!!!!!

Now, I'm not going to cover everything. This is mainly a variation log and started because of this......

I always knew that Onslaught came with a metal and a plastic chest. Well, I found a 3rd version. I got another (like I need more) MIB one off ebay the other day. It was open but had an un-applied sticker sheet and was very cheap. So, I figured I would buy him, take the stickers and resell him. Make a few bucks and get a vintage sticker sheet for free in the process. Well, that didn't happen. I took him out to make sure he was in good shape and then I noticed his chest was different. So, of course I had to add him to my collection.

If you look at the pics above, I took off all 3 chests so you can see the differences. the first (on the left) is metal. the second is plastic, but the same shade of silver as the metal one (this was the one I got off ebay). The last one is the dull grey version that I "thought" was the only plastic version. I don't know what the #1 and #2 on the inside of the chest mean.

There is also the japanese version who came with an actual "launcher". But I don't own this one, so the pic is borrowed from the web.

Here is the Metal version with weapons next to the "dull" plastic version with weapons. Metal on the right, plastic on the left. The same shiny chrome parts came with the "chrome" plastic version, so I didn't bother to take pics of all 3.

The Green plastic is also slightly different from the metal/chrome plastic to the dull plastic

Since I'm doing plastic VS metal, here's metal (purple) Swindle vs plastic (grey)

Metal Brawl VS Plastic. Hard to tell a difference in a pic (especially with un-chipped metal), but weight wise.........you can tell. The green is an ever so slight different shade.

Metal (lighter purple) Vortex VS plastic (darker purple)

Plastic (lighter purple) Blast Off VS metal (darker purple) AND (I just noticed I reversed them from left to right, but didn't want to re-take the shot)

And just for fun, here s a little extra something else I noticed.

G2 Onslaught and Battle Gaia have the SAME EXACT face, feet, hand and ramp plates. Same shade of black, same writing and even the same markings inside (which, I forgot to take a pic of. But trust me, they are the SAME). The white used on Blast Off's weapons is slightly off though. the bone white on the left is G2 and the milky white on the right is Battle Gaia
