A couple of days ago I went to my local Fred Meyer to look for transformers, and guess what I found, a real movie Starscream!

But just before I was going to open it, I heard something moving around in the box. What was it? :-?

So I looked around the box and saw that the tailwing was broken off. :-(

How dissapointing. [-(

was it one with the ball-joint? mine wasn't unmatched when i opened it.

You do know that all of the tail wings are on ball joints right?

Half of mine pop off whenever I transform him. If the actual ball snapped off, that would be a problem. My Payload figure has multiple parts that decide they don't want to stay attached

Both those, plus the eye looking thing on the front of the claw. It's lost at the moment.

I coated the peg parts with a clear coat to tighten it a lot, preventing it from falling off esily.

I had my own share of "broken" disappointment.

The time i took out Japanese version of Movie Longarm from its bubble, and transformed him, the right arm just simple dropped to the floor. It's not even attached to the body.

Movie Payload is the worst toy ever made.

Yeah. Payload very bad design. Looks like he's been stabbed with a tree trunk from behind.
