diecast on stunticons question

hi -

looking at buying a set of stunticons, and had a question about the die cast parts on it. the motormaster does not have any die cast parts on it. is that correct for the original? the other stunticons do have die cast chests. is that corrects for original g1 stunticons, or were there any variants on the die cast/plastic parts. just want to make sure i'm getting an original and not a knockoff...

The high grade KO has die-cast. The only way to find out if:

1.You know the seller

2.Personal eyeballing

3.Wildrider's plastic for the KO(the red part behind his doors/arms has stretched marks)

4.Motormaster IIRC has die-cast on his leg joints

ok. so aside from the leg joints, the rest of motormaster is plastic? i was always under the assumption that the cab part of motormaster was diecast.

The cab has a sort of spine so to speak that holds it when folded backward.
