Can anyone point me to the correct type of screw that is shown here in this picture:

Mine came off, and I'd love to replace it. I know there's like a million different screws and identifying one of them, much less finding a replacement, is fairly difficult. Thanks very much!

One good thing about Transformers is that many of them use similar types/lengths/diameters of screws. If you've got any junk bots lying around, they may be a good place to start.

Of course the other question is - how did you lose the screw? Took it out on purpose and lost it? Because if it fell out on its own, the hole may be stripped out and just putting in a new one of the same size won't fix that.

No, I didn't take it out on purpose, it appears to have come out on it's own. I realize that that doesn't bode well for any replacement I find. But no, I don't have any junk bots that I think could supply a replacement. It seems to be incredibly small, I'm not sure if trying to find an equivalent at Home Depot makes any sense, or if there is some other place I should be trying to look.
