Luckily though, we had the gold boxed Euro Classics reissue in Oz. I loved them all, even though the quality pretty crappy compared to the originals. Never seen so many rusty screws in my life!

I thought the Classic reissues were pretty well made... even though some of the carded reissues were retooled without rub sign indents (and given regular faction stickers ilo rub signs). Rust can happen to screws on reissues or originals... just depends on how well you take care of the toys and avoid exposing them to moisture I guess. I haven't noticed any rusty screws on any of my G1 originals or reissues (Classic or otherwise). The only G1 TFs I've had rust with was a junker Pipes, junker Long Haul and KO Alan (t'was a gift) -- they were all aquarium decorations.

Welcome to the forum! For the rusty screws, try the H2O2 bath .
