I'm liking these colour schemes much better than Hasbro's PCC line. I may have actually displayed some of the combiners actually combined instead of dumping their limbs into my parts bin. Alas I don't like the prices on these, I don't think I can justify them.

These actually looks less crappy.

i have been digging these color schemes since they were first revealed.
however until the price gets chopped down, it is no go territory for a while

Yeah, laying low on these microns until the prices get nuked.

Autobot... Decepticon... Yup, still UNITED. >:oP

But I gotta say that I love the packaging! So much nicer than the previous UNITED packaging, as that was a bit repetitive (see: ANIMATED). That, and it makes me wonder who is Master Chaos. :-?

So the microns aren't translucent. Grr.

Also, that two-packs looks tasty.

who the hell is that chick in your sig Rha?

I'm perfectly happy with my one Destructicon pack. I don't think I need more PCC.

The uniform colors do make the figures better.

Lets see, combat Master looks like Onslaught, Jet Master could be Silverbolt or an Aerialbot, Chopper Master maybe Highbrow, Roller Master is ?
I love the fact they are Robots in disguise!

I would doubt there's many QC differences between them and Hasbro's. It's actually a myth that TT's figures are better QC'd than Hasbro's anyways.

Besides, maybe you got a bad figure? IIRC the joints on most of my PCCs are quite tight.
