I buy most of my stuff there. Transformerland is one of the best places around for vintage gear. Never had a problem with the service, his patience is infinite and prices are great :)

I have heard stories that the tyres are prone to splitting on RID Prime and the addition of the Autobot symbols on the shoulder pads but I'm interested in knowing about the overall quality of each product.

I have RID Prime and CR Magnus and the two combine fine.

That cracked tires thing comes up a lot but my RID Prime is still fine 8 years on

I have SFC, RiD OP and GM - my RiD OP combines with GM just fine, but has cracked tyres. :( My SFC's tyres are fine. :)

Thank you for the info. I noticed his prices are very nice compared to WheelJack's Lab.

Do reissues have the same stampings as the original G1 figures?

I think it depends; some do and some don't. iirc reissue Sixshot and TFC Hound have the same stampings as the originals. Likewise the Hasbro reissue* of Magmatron. I'll check again when I'm at home. :)

----------------------------------------------
*Hasbro Magmatron's as much of a reissue as say TFC Gears or Encore Sky Lynx et al.
