Even though I own both the Hasbro and Takara versions, I’ve decided to review the Takara version (first anyways) because it has the more show accurate color-scheme, and I feel that it’s the definite choice between the two to purchase.
We’ll start off with some pictures of the robot and alt. (truck) modes. As you can see, there’s a very strong and complete homage to the on-screen CGI model in aesthetic and proportions.

The accessories are fairly simple and to-the-point. They’re both what he uses in the show (although he has two blasters in the show). The only problem I have is tha the sword is rubber. It’s not even as much that the sword is rubber, as the fact that the texture of rubber keeps it from having a polished sheen like a blade would.
They do add quite a bit to Prime though:
It’s a very uncanny likeness for even the best of Transformers toys, and that, combined with it’s great articulation and height (7″ from head to toe in Robot mode), really do make this one of the best Voyager-classed Transformers figures that I feel has ever been made! Because of that, I’m not even going to bother rating this one, and just say to buy this. If second-hand pricing is expensive, then save up. You’re not going to find much better than this in Transformers as a whole even, let alone just the Prime toyline.
