Re: starscream qc issues?

Clearly he means Animated.

And yes, it also took me 3 attempts to finally get a Starscream that didn't want to fall apart if you blinked too loud.

I'm going through the same problem with Bumblebee, Lockdown, Racthet & Prowl. After 3 attempts, I finally got a Lockdown that's passable. Still not great, though. It took me 2 attempts to get a Ratchet that didn't fall apart. And I'm currently on attempt #3 with BB & Prowl... which still aren't up to snuff. Assuming I can even find them in stores after the 2-for-1 sale is done, I'm about to have my 4th version of both figures.

So far the only ones that haven't caused me grief are Voyager Prime & Leader Bulkhead.

I haven't had any problems of this kind with any Animated figure, but if you don't position Starscream's legs correctly they won't fit where they are supposed to.

It's a matter of properly lining up all the parts have have the legs and arms bent at their respective specific angle.
