Some employee got sick of painting these toys making minimal wages and so he went through 50,000 toys and sprayed random gray paint all over the toys at different points. Hasbro found out too late before the guy quit and then the toy exec had a thought:
"Wait! We don't have to throw these out... Let's call this battle damaged prime and sell it as a new product!"
"But it doesn't even look damaged. It's just gray spray paint over half its face and body."
"You want to start looking for another job?"
"Looks great, sir! Let's do it!"

LOL! QFT!
Nah seriously, if anyone wants a PROPER battle damaged look, either do it yourself or hire me to do it for you.

I am perfectly happy with my leader Prime.

I'm very glad that I got the Robovision Prime.
Hasbro have not gotten any better at making battle damaged figures at all.

?Universe Classics?
An Idea, or a Fact!?!
I need 2 more StarScreams, unless of course they break down and do a Thrust and ThunderCracker(than I'm good).
Dirdge is easy enough as I have the RamJet, inverted the wings, and soon will be painting, but still if they'd save me the effort there too, all the better, I'll just make some additional Seekers.
Also F BotCon, I'm still not over this one!
