    Good to hear they sorted this out. Glad we haven't heard much about the Hasbro version having the same problem or it'd be a pain in the tailgate to replace..(on a second thought, the way the Hasbro pile drivers were packed kinda prevents factory workers from picking two of the same one.)

    Never realised we have another Aussie Transformer. The Tasmainian Kid. (sounds like a 80's WWF Wrestler)

    Toywise he's the same as BW Snarl, which was released in Australia. Although the mould looks nothing like a Tasmanian Devil... more like a generic marsupial thing... more like a Dunnart. :/ It's a nice toy though.

    As roller pointed out to me today. G1 Ultra Magnus' helmet head can combine with his blue chest piece to form a little jet vehicle of some sort. I thought it was just a joke, but then we tried it... crude but yup apparently it does.

    Hasbro skipped Powered Buggy, the little red single seater vehicle/robot that came with Powered Convoy too.
