They remolded it? I thought it was just a straight repaint. What'd they change?

As far as I know, the fins on the legs face the opposite direction.
That's about it.

On the Armada version, the fins point down (IIRC. It's been a while since I've paid any attention to him.). One the Hasbro website, the Energon version has fins that point up. Minor difference, but it is a difference.

Ah, I see. I bet they just forgot what direction they originally went.
Come to think of it, that sounds like it would look better . . .
*Switches fins*
Nope. Nevermind.

All I know is this:
On my Armada Tidal Wave, the fins point down in robot mode.
On the Hasbro website (since I don't have E Tidal Wave), the fins point up. The picture on the box looked the same.

They probably put the fins on wrong for the one they took pictures of, or whoever it was at Seibertron that took that pic fixed it in order to look like the Armada one. No biggie.

Well, yeah. But that's not a mistransformation. That would require taking out the pins completely

No pins. They just snap into place.
