>>5506374Say what you will, but if a transformer doesn't transform properly fuck that shit, smokescreen was beautiful and made me appreciate the mold, prowl was good and what I usually I expect from hasbro, but the bluestreaks were pieces of shit, missing paint from whole panels, spots that look like some kid went nuts with a paint brush (a large paint streak across the rear quarter panel was one of the worst cases), and each one couldn't even transform correctly with panels bulging out, being so stiff a door hinge in one case CRACKED as I was showing off to one of the tru cashiers...each one was a poor fit.
Why I bothered to go check 16 (16th was...surprise, just like smokescreen, pure smoothness and perfection all around) was the fact the first one I had just bugging me with poor paint apps and it went on from there...
This is why I appreciate open window packaging or bots that are mostly plastic using rich plastic colors (my mp star saber fared better than my mp10, paint scuff on top of his trailer out of the box but optimus himself was perfect)
Thus my tale of autism, no the tru staff don't hate me either because I got them out of serving the soccer mom's by making 2of them run around grabbing boxes over the course of 2 weeks...yeah I wasn't autistic enough to do it all in one day, refunded after the first 5 then tried again later when they were on clearance
