Nice, guess the crown really is translucent; just one more thing that'll break once you look at it in-hand :BANG_HEAD:

I love how we talk about conjecture as if it's fact. Good thing you're not getting this set, just one less thing you get to complain about over and over again >:oP

HA!

Clear plastic gets a bad wrap. Unless you're a kid banging his toys together it should have a long life.

I don't get the fear of clear plastic. I have 19 to 22 year old Microman toys, like the ones in my sig that are fine. Heck Beast Wars and Beast Machines too. Maybe there is something to be said about mid-west American climate. I've also never had rubber wheels or tank treads dry rot on me.

Uhhhhhhhhh, I did not bang my figure (Big Convoy) at all thank you. Of course I purchased him back in 2004 (he was released in 1999) so for a 15 year old toy that was well cared for, his translucent part broke not due to abuse.

Life is full of unknowns I'd grant you that but as a collector on our part, did care for the item to be far from abuse yet it still broke.

The crown part on G G is not so much an issue but that Starscream is.Oh mark my word, that joint in the torso.

Hellscream just did a bit of hyperbole. But the breaking is not conjecture, only a matter of time. I'd like for my expensive toys to last and not break at the seams for no apparent reasons.If it breaks apart, it should be due to my dumbness like dropping it on the floor or something.

I suppose I was more taking a jab at all the complaining that he's been doing lately about his stuff breaking while the rest of us are sitting here with minor if not no problems what so ever.

I agree sir, the only thing I've ever had happen is one or two white figures yellowing. And MP05 rusting..other than that, no issues with the things!

My solution to the clear plastic Starscream, I got a nice Offroad that's not being used as a limb. He'll be a nice replacement for a right arm while Starscream goes on the shelf next to Unicron. :-D

To be perfectly honest the only defected toys I've ever had was BM Ultra Jetstorm chrome flaking, tire rot on RID Prime, and (sorry Cobs) my Microman Kicker blowing out his knee for no apparent reason.

Well lucky f#cking you >:oP

But you're right, I was out of line about saying that after paying $18 for figures made out of plastic so cheap, it tore itself apart by sitting there... =;

I didn't care much at all about the translucent breakage issue (it does look cool and all especially for the Ghost effect) and just heard of it a few years back. But it did happen to me :-( . In as much as I don't like to rain on anyone's parade ( I do really want this figure.......arrgh!) By all means get it folks. Just make sure you inspect the SS part from time to time.

If only this GG isn't this hard @ss expensive ( extra Y 8000 )but a mass release (ordering from intermediaries also tucks in extra), it would be less painful if it breaks.....due to my carelessness and not because of the materials used.

* I wish some product out there is available that strengthens plastic of this type.

I see nothing wrong with the plastic and isolated incidents do not make it a cheap plastic or make this line a "scam". Things just don't break for no reason there's always a factor that causes it. My blackjack broke but I know that it was my fault, I'm not sitting here damming Hasbro for my mistake.

RID Prime tire rot goes hand in hand with that figure :-P (Me too, broke in the middle so I sold him for the JP version which is still whole)

Nice that you got my point. If a fig breaks, it should be because of my fault. It is easier to swallow :HEADHURTS: . Wishing that figs today were like the ones made by Fisher Price in the 80s. Them American made plastic figures/vehicles really could take all sorts of punishment.

Again folks. Sorry if I rained on your parade. Get the set. Only make sure to inspect him from time to time ( I might even take the plunge too despite my recent heart plastic break as TT really knows how to pimp their figures). :x
