Really? Never? You should if you haven't - it's this one: http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Image:Transfo...8UK%29_150.jpg (rather subtly entitled 'The Origin Of The Transformers') and part 5 of The Legacy Of Unicron. Death's Head discovers the history of Unicron and the Transformers. (Later reprinted in issues around the two-hundred and ninety-something mark.)
From comments here and my own observations it seems impossible to get a scratch free Generations Blurr so I bought the best of the four at Chadstone today. It's not perfect but not that bad either and I want the toy for robot mode more anyway. Also got ROTF Hubcap while it was (finally) on sale for $12.
The Blurr I got is fine, but had mine imported. Only gripes I have are some of the paint is not the greatest, but barely noticable anyway. Maybe we got all the rejects :p
Paulbot: I saw a bunch of Blurrs at Parramatta Kmart yesterday (yeah, I bit far for you I know) and about half of them had scratched bonnets and the other half didn't. I thought about whether or not I should get a non-scratched Blurr and refund my scratched one... but in the end decided that I CBB. :p
But even if the bonnet and car mode surfaces are unscratched, you may experienced a scratch on one of the robot mode parts, like on my TFCC Dion :(
Interesting seeing people talk about the Diaclone stickers on Prowl. I missed out on the original Prowl in 1984, but I got Classic Prowl in 1990 - so that was the one I grew up with, so to me it's "normal" for him to have Diaclone on his stickers. Did the original Prowl have the Diaclone stickers too? Maybe it's only the recent reissues (e.g. TFC, Hasbro Commem.) that don't have it.
I can't see how you could justify (to yourself) returning a toy because it has a scratch on it. It's not broken - basically it means one would be denying someone else a toy (because I doubt it would be resold) for cosmetic reasons. Of course, if it was Blurr's mouldmate I can see how it could be returned.
CUSTOMER SERVICE: So what's wrong with your toy?
TRANSFAN: It's...

argghhh... i stand corrected again. Now that I see the cover, I know I actually have that issue. Bought it off the newstand when I was young. I am getting old.... (and shoot me for not doing my research before answering).
