Same thing happened with my "Sky Dasher" Powerdasher - previous owner coloured the eyes in blue despite the fact that Powerdasher never appeared in any G1 cartoon! Gggggrrr!! (toy accuracy ftw!!!)

Well spotted Goki :D, that is the exact reason why I'm having to perform some minor surgery on both the Duocons. :p

Flywheels: Having to replace his right arm with the arm of a double that I have as the double has the rub sign on it and the one in the pic (Tank Part) doesn't have a rub sign :(.

Battletrap: Having to replace the head with a double I have (Thank you Liege :D) because some one has coloured the visor in with a red texta! :mad:.

The other problem I have with Battletrap is that the one in the pic doesn't have a rub sign but has a Decepticon sticker none the less, my double though has a rub sign but doesn't have the Decepticon sticker so now I've got to try and come to a decision on which one to go with because I don't believe I'll be able to transfer just the sticker over :(.

G1 Silverbolt and Firefly from the Parra fair.

G1 Shrapnel off 1AZRAEL1

PCC Huffer from Toyworld Batemans Bay

Finally something to post here!
BW Silverbolt from Omega Supreme (thanks again) and the Clear Skies Minicon Team from Toyworld Burnie.

A Misfire I bought some months ago also had his eyes painted red. It was very annoying.

I'd go for the sticker. :)

G1 backpack from TRU ($20). Thanks to Griffin for the sighting.

Turns out I've got about $50 more in the bank than I thought I did after my weekend splurge.

I may add the new yellow packaged scout molds to my months acquisitions tomorrow.

WOO HOO!
