(NOTE: Because this is a repaint, this is not a full-blown review. This mainly covers any changes made to the mold and the color scheme, and merely compares it to the original Beast Wars Cheetor. For a review on the mold itself, read the review of the original Beast Wars Cheetor here.)

    Cheetor is one of the 'bots to get pretty much no change for his 10th Anniverary Edition. The only noticeable change is the silver-and-red Maximal symbol on his right shoulder in beast mode, though there are a few more subtle changes. Namely, The blue used for his paint apps is a bit shinier and more metallic than on the toy's previous versions. The black paint lines on the face are also considerably thinner than on the toy's previous versions. Also, the overall color scheme is a mix between the mold's original color scheme and its Fox Kids repaint version-- it has the more muted blue and golden yellow colors of the Fox Kids version, but the black spots of the original. I'm kind of miffed that Cheetor's feet, eyes, and lower arms aren't yellow, since that's how he looked on the show and the entire POINT of the 10th anniversary repaints was to make them very show-accurate, but he still is a slightly better match to the show model than the previous paint jobs.
    No mold changes have been made to 10th Anniversary Cheetor.
    If you have any previous versions of this toy, or have no big desire to complete Transmutate, than 10th Anniversary Cheetor definitely isn't worth your $15. Otherwise, he's a fairly good toy with the most show-accurate paint job the toy has had yet, and is a nice reminder of times gone by.
