The Energon Pub

I read that Torca suffers from Gold Plastic Syndrome. Is it bad enough to make purchasing him a bad idea?

i have one and from the looks of it, he doesn't seem the toy to suffer from GPS. he's just plain sturdy and stuff.

of course, i've only transformed mine a few times and keep it on display, so...

Never had any problems with mine, and he's very played-with. Great fig, very distinctive. If the price is right, grab him.

The tail snapped off my origonal one at the joint. That's the weakest part of the figure, so be careful when transforming him.

ah yes, one of my friend's Torca tail also snapped. just be careful with the tail and you'll be fine. heck, with the sturdiness of this fig i won't be surprised if 20 years from now its joints will be just as tight as it was when i first had it (of course, getting into account that i only display him and rarely transform him nowadays...)
