>>5845641Generally, theres 3 things: Hasbro, Takara, and 3rd parties.
3P stuff varies hugely in quality, because it's unofficial "Not-Transformers" stuff, but the good stuff is immensely good. It's also very high priced, we're talking $20+ minimums for figures that Hasbro would price at $10 for their size.
Hasbro and Takara stuff is the official stuff, and the biggest difference between the two is usually paint apps: Takara goes for the more lavish paint apps, but sometimes goes for completely different decos. The usual thing is "Hasbro does the toy deco, Takara does the cartoon deco".
Pic related, my 3P Feral Rex, MMC's Not-Predaking, and one expensive motherfucker. He's nearly $600 for all his component figures.
