I think people can see this colour fine, its the source that is being debated.

I don't think so. There seems to be quite a disagreement over how blue that blue is.

I really hate the part about fans arguing for the sake of it too. What I dislike is how the fact that takara has photoshopped this colour change is proof that they arent always right about the source material, nor as loyal as people think they are. They make mistakes too and here is a prime example I will keep using whenever someone says Takara is always right. I love Takara but I do not follow them blindly and what frustrated me was how some fans online (less here) were in this deep denial that Takara had the wrong colours and instead was referncing something that actually happened and that it was so great of them to be so show accurate. Plus, it scared the **** out of me thinking of what the MP would look like if this was what takara thought the show accurate colours to be.
The fact that Takara admits to their mistake definitely calms me down. I personally still think its not the best colour for Kup, but its at least debatable. And this is just test shots anyway. The fact that they can change the colour almost overnight in photoshop tells me that its not too late to get it even better.
Anyways, all that aside, I can give one definite proof that Kups colours were not the concensus on the character by asking anyone to recall if there were fans who objected to the colours used on generations Kup. I cant remember any, we just accepted the colour as being a decent take on what we remembered and wanted. So if there was no big argument there and there is one now, I think thats proof enough that Takara had messed up. I would still love to have this mold be closer to those generations colours. Cant believe his colours were already well done once and that its later that we get it wrong.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

Yeah, exactly, that was my point. but you know, there was one dude who actually was hoping for a grey Kup. I cant find the thread but its been months ago we had this debate with him and he was really hoping that they wold redeco Hasbro's into grey so that it would look like how he remembered Kup.
Of course, the rest of us just laughed it off and wondered why they would make a deco based on an animation error.

Isn't this a "win?" Who cares who was being a Takara apologist before or what exactly was going on with the initial reveals? Things are a lot better now (not perfect, but better), and we don't seem to be happy about that. Why?
