    Has this happened to anyone else? Really annoyed.

    A mate at uni and I each bought one. Mine: Stiff shoulders with "white" stress marks but no cracks (yet), probably just like kurdt's. But with TWO left fists.

    My mate's: Just like Tiby, the ball joint on left shoulder made a "click" sound and then a crack line appeared all the way through the socket, also the first time he touched it. Right shoulder has no crack yet. :/

    This does not bode well for the line. Thanks guys for the reports.

    My Bumblebee also had some stress marks out of the box on his rear window

    Why oh why can't Hasbro get this right after 24 years!?!?!

    I guess the QC fits into my (very low) opinion of the line ):

    I thought the line with the worst QC was the movie line...

    Don't they ever learn from their mistakes?

    Poor QC aside, I still find the toys excellent. I have the same feeling as Paulbot in post #2. These are some of the nicest "action figures" I have played with in recent years. Full of character, and very nice to pose. I'm tempted to get more of these than more of the movie style toys.

    Hey I'm not complaining, Tiby. I'm just disappointed that those who are interested can't enjoy substandard toys.

    got prowl today, his waist is like a salsa dancer, its hard to for him to pose standing straight up without being all over the place.

    i like how you can turn the rear part of the cycle in vehicle mode, makes for cool looking turns and also you can transform it into a leg for a backward kick action.

    I don't like how prowl's mouth piece is not coloured, but i think this was done to give him a ninja mask look.
