Help!

So I just got a complete G1 Predaking off eBay. It was listed as 3/5 Predacons with (die cast) metal variants. I'm confused, though, because all 5 of them have die cast metal parts.
Headstrong has a die cast metal back.
Tantrum has die cast metal sides of his chest and hips.
Razorclaw has only a die cast metal waist.
Divebomb has only a die cast metal waist.
and Rampage has only a die cast metal waist.

Sooooo are they all the die cast metal variants or do the true metal variants have full metal chests (Razorclaw, Divebomb, Rampage)? Am I wrong in assuming that if they have any die cast metal parts, then they are the metal variants? Can anyone please help with this question! I've checked my usual TF sites (transformers.wikia.com, http://www.tfu.info, http://www.unicron.us, http://www.tfw2005.com) but can't find an exact answer. Thanks!

One more site that may probably help answer your questions?

It looks like you lucked out because you have a complete set of the die-cast version. There are no other die-cast variations. Not sure why the seller had it listed as 3/5 die-cast.

Just curious but how much did you spend on your Predaking? I had to sell my Reissue Predaking years back for some cash and I now want another one. Whats a fair price for one?

First - Thanks to all of you for responding! This has been a great help (especially the website about all the combiner variants). Of course, I'm psyched that I have a complete all-metal Predaking - Sweeeeeeeeet!

He cost $260. That was 100% complete with all weapons, tech specs, & instruction booklets. Most I've seen on eBay have gone for at least $200, usually more especially if they're complete w/all accessories. Also most of the complete ones I've seen have been the all-plastic versions.

Yeah, I sold my Reissue predaking box for 70 dollars.... the figures went for something like 250 or so a few years back.

I was hoping the bad economy would drive down TF prices!
