As strange as this sounds, I've heard that collectors in the UK have less trouble with this. Some think it's due to climate. Maybe if you can duplicate those conditions in your display room you can delay the effects.

As if light control wasn't tough enough, now I have to replicate the atmospheric conditions of the UK in Oklahoma? "F" my life into pieces.

Keep in mind I've gotten this from just a handful of people at conventions and I've never verified it myself. I just know I use a rudimentary climate control in my room to help preserve rubber parts, and, so far, I haven't had any GPS problems. I put a pan of water in the room for humidity and I try to regulate the temperature with a fan (summer) and a ceramic heater (winter) to prevent parts from expanding and contracting with temp change. Seeing my entire G1 collection with dry rotted tires once was enough for me.

been waiting to see this posted
looks pretty interesting even if i feel the price is a little too high

Got this from Ebay a month ago.Its very nice. It makes Starscream way more movie accurate. The boosters plug in the back were the missiles store and have a little groove to hook up firmly.After that they also have some articulation.They fold side to side, front to back , and anything in between. They include detachable blue jet flames for action poses.The boosters can also attach to the jet mode and maintain full mobility(must be rotated for jet mode). The buzz saw as seen in ROTF and DOTM,features matching paint/tatoo as Starscream.Plugs into missile launcher and can be fired (a nice little bonus)Rotates pretty nicely but depending on the launcher (some tend to pinch) friction will slow much faster. I highly recommend this for the already awesome Leader Starscream. I hope they make something like this for DOTM ultimate Optimus Prime. Making him more accurate/cooler looking with a better booster and two guns in robot mode and a bigger set of wheels and hitch for the tyrailer to hook up to ROTF Prime or Jetwing or that REALLY cool new Prime with the Stealth force.

I kinda wish the guy who created this kit. would have also done & added into the kit a more G-1 Styled seeker head. that sort looked like the 2007 movie voyager seeker head that thundercracker had.

I honestly think the light blue missles on the back pack looks awful. I think a more blending in color should have been grey.

The Blue things are not missiles,They are supposed to be blue jet exhaust flames.They are removable.
