Yeah that is not right.

Personally I am not all that confident in AFA grading abilities..

I got Silverstreak from Tetsu on Friday :D I love Silverstreak :D

Fungal asks a very good question...

Finally collected my Seacons set from Tetsuwan Convoy! (He's got heaps of bots stashed in his wardrobe! :D)

The Seacons are now happily residing in my shelves now with the Classics/Universe bots.

Thanks for the patience, TC! :)

Anyway, I picked up Henkei Ironhide yesterday. He came to Star City with me last night. :p

Joustra produced Seeker Jets, To Optimus, to Browning to even the Microman Mini-Cars.

Nope. I just took that photo from a low angle. :p Henkei Ironhide does look down to some degree, but not as bad as Silverbolt.

jgon2098: Any differences between the toys of Diver and Waverider? I'm particularly interested in the colour of the Pretender shell's hair. Could you post a photo? I think Diver's hair is brown whereas Waverider is kinda blonde... but I'd love to be able to confirm that. :)
