    It's not, Ive just checked mine and yes there is a stressmark on that plastic. looks like the eject play wont be played as much anymore. So much for the figure being a "Masterpiece" oh and mine is a TakaraTomy one...I would imagine the Hasbro one wouldn't be any different (except for the eye color)

    I don't think it is a stress mark, more of plastic flashing. At least mine is.

    Plastic flashing. Brings up naughty images.

    Only purchase that which you need, would be my suggestion.
    Ultra Marginal also has a thread
    http://www.otca.com.au/boards/showthread.php?p=355269

    I've closed that thread now so that it doesn't catch fire during the actual sale period. Apart from Megatron who has decided to source from a closer person in melbourne, there was no other serious interest.


    I'd suggest picking up a second soundwave for someone else only if theyve asked you directly, otherwise you'll potentially get stuck having to take it back to the store.

    I'm picking up two, one for me and one for a friend who is overseas at the moment.


    As for the stress mark on the clear plastic at the door hinge, is it a washer or is that litle circle of clear plastic attached to something else? if it's just a washer, the stress mark may have happened during installation and it probably wont see any more loads to make it stress more than it already has.

    Just called Northlands, clerks weren't very helpful, just said trucks were expected to delivered these mp's during the week.
