As I said in the bragging thread my Bumblebee and Optimus Prime arrived today and Bumblebee is in European packaging and Optimus Prime is in North American packaging. So I thought I would post some images, before I open them , so people can see the differences. The biggest difference is obviously the distinct lack of any sort of character description on the back of the Euro version. The North American in contrast contains quite a lot more info. Bumblebee's packaging is just translations of his powers which reads: Galactic Powers and Abilities: Rocket Assisted Jumps Energy stingers fire electrical pulses Totally fearless Optimus' packaging reads: Despite having washed out of the Autobot Academy, Optimus Prime is a natural leader. Trained to lead the bravest of the brave against overwhelming odds, he eagerly looked forward to his first assignment. It's just too bad the Decepticons were defeated ages ago, and the only crews left to lead are the maintenance squads that keep the Space Bridge network running. Since his assignment, he's lost track of his ambitions. The last thing he expects is the chance to test his leadership abilities in a battle to defend his home and fight for freedom. Galactic Powers and Abilities: Can cut reinforced steel Advanced fire-fighting systems Trained at Autobot Academy

The European one should have the bio on the reverse of the instruction leaflet.

The European one should have the bio on the reverse of the instruction leaflet. I've yet to open them in a few minutes I'm going to log off and do just that. I'm really excited about these guys I've been waiting for them to arrive for days! ;D It's made my sad little geeky life very happy!

The European one should have the bio on the reverse of the instruction leaflet. Nope I looked all over and there is no bio information in the European packaging anywhere. It has the usual safety leaflet in with the instructions that you always get but there is nothing on the instructions except that all the instructions, such as "parts are made to detach if excessive force is applied", in several languages. Overall the North American packaging does look better!
