Re: Transformers quality control issues of 2010

I have a Convoy Alternity second edition and the red paint doesnt match in three places. It looks really crappy in GT-R mode. Like a backyard spray bomb maaco job.

Re: Transformers quality control issues of 2010

I was at a Zellers yesterday and noticed two HFTD Jetblades on the pegs which had the name Terradive on those small cardboard inserts which are on the inside of the plastic bubble. The rest of the packaging (and toy) was all-Jetblade. Anyone else come across this?

Re: Transformers quality control issues of 2010

^^ seems to be a fairly common packaging problem for that particular figure lately

Picked up Doubleclutch and the Rallybots for my son. What a POS.

In commander mode DC's arms do not tab in place, nor does his chest. Once u attach the drones don't plan on touching it or the arms will pop out of the tabs/holes and hang loosely.

Smolder has since taken his place as he stands solidly.

Re: Transformers quality control issues of 2010

The Hot Rod in my RTS Battle in Space 2 pk seems to have cheap plastic. The quality of the plastic is different and I believe quite inferior to the Cyclonus in the same package. Does anyone have this figure and other Hot Rods and can compare them for me? As I don't have other classic Hot Rods I wonder if it's like that just with this version?

I have both, I find the quality of the original to be better.

The paint used also seems very cheap as well, the yellow on my spoiler has chipped off a little.

Yes I have there are some at my Zellers as well and I was wondering the same thing also I feel really bad for the kid that gets the Jetblade because the kid tols his/her parents to pick up a Terradive
