Hello to everyone, as this is my first ever post on Seibertron.

So far I've gotten the deluxe Jazz, Bumblebee, and Barricade.
I've also picked up the voyager Starscream.

No real probelms so far, except the trigger for that weird punch feature on Barricade annoys me a bit. The slightest touch sometimes and it just springs out. A bit annoying.

Otherwise, cool beans. My voyager Starscream seems to be very well made. I want to pick up Blackout--hopefully I won't have some of the troubles I've read about.

Welcome to the boards!I also have problems with Barricade.
So far I have no problems with Bumblebee and Scorponok.Voyager Blackout has instruction errors.

Ironically this is one of the easiest things to fix. Just spent $3 extra on the nail polish the kind fellow posters suggested to fix the ball joint, and voila. I consider Protoform Prime more of a collector's item than a "playing" figure anyway, so now the joints are tighter and will stay that way for pretty much indefinetly (even if it doesn't, there's so much nail polish it's not funny).

I am more concerned with the toys with all their gimmicks and transformation problems. That's some serious issues.

Another issue I've had is the paint with the Real Gear figures. Like I posted in the thread I started, alot of Spy Shot's paint rubbed off while my son had him in his pocket. Very odd since we live in Buffalo. It doesn't really get that hot here for paint to start getting so warm it begins to melt.
you know,colors may vary.I spot no problem with Deluxe Bumblebee.If you need help on Bumblebee's tab,press it down with both thumbs.

I understand that, but I still think it's dumb they show purple on the packaging, yet their actual color is yellow. And who said I had any problems transforming him?


What the problem usually is, is that they use photos of Takara's version of the toy for the back of the card. Then when Hasbro makes their version of the toy, you see the differences.


I thought the same thing when I bought Protoform SS, yet the card shows the takara version that was released later.

Oh, and FYI, if you look closely, you can see YouTube's DCompose in your sig, Fenderbender, he is in the green shirt at the top left. He looks angry for some reason?

But I love his TF video reviews.

My barricade's left window is really tight. I feel like I'm going to break it... Also does his waist lock in fully?

There is no problems with Bumblebee!!!


A virtual cornucopia of Bumblebee owners do not agree.
If he's ok, then why would there be 2 different versions, one not being defective?
