Via Alfes2010, we’ve got a look at the Takara-Tomy version of Robots in Disguise Thunderhoof in-hand. Just released as a part of the Transformers Adventure line, this version of Thunderhoof sports a very nice paint job that really brings out the best in what is already a good mold. Check out a selection of images attached to this post to see what you think for yourself.

Looks pretty cool to me

I much prefer the TAV version of him, I suppose that goes for most of the characters really but as a famers boy I was particularly pleased with Thunderhoof – it's just a shame his alt mode is so small.
My review of TAV08, 37 & 38 (Gregevor, Megatronus *& Thunderhoof)

Lookie what showed up at my house just now!
They both look GREAT in person and out of the package, especially Thunderhoof.

I like both versions of Thunderhoof! Still, this paintjob rocks JUST a little bit more.

Looks really nice!

I don't know if I can really justify the Takara version, I mean i do think it looks better but there are better figures I'd rather have from Takara.
Still he looks great.

How few paint apps more can change the entire figure.
But then, Takara Strongarm also looks better than Hasbro bare bones version.

No, it's the same mold as Hasbro's warrior class. Just with much more paint apps.

is he a different mold from the Hasbro version

I'm glad Thunderhoof and Quillfire came out before I stumbled on the Hasbro versions. I always have trouble waiting and end up with doubles.

Mine and Quillfire have already shipped from HLJ

Wow. He looks so much better than Hasbro's with all those extra paint apps. I was going to pick up Takara's until some real life hit me this weekend. I still might go back and get him if he doesn't sell out fast but I have a feeling he will.

Golly. If i see him at my local hobby shop ill sure be pucking him up. Not really a priority since MPs are being released like crazy in the next month or so.

Mine's on the way along with Quillfire.

Very nice!
A great figure of him.

I got it today, too! Really impressed by how compact he becomes in vehicle mode, and his horns limit his shoulders a little bit, but super poseable!
Clearly, HasTak gave up on kids for these Season 2-timed toys and brought out their A-Game for us collectors LIGHTYEARS better than Wave 1 Bee and such.
