Hey Everyone,

I am new to the forums and collecting transformers. I recently bought a box of mainly G1 Transformers with 3 x G1 Optimus Primes in there. I am using these as a starting project to fix up and if I get these complete I will try and move to others I have. I don't really know the different versions but 2 are made by Takara and 1 is made by Hasbro. The Hasbro one has a lighter color trailer and the blue on the outside is a lighter color as well. I am needing a lot of the little parts for all of them (Trailer Doors, Rollers, Fists, Fuel pump, Nozel, Hoses and the OP Laser Blaster. I also need 1 front grill as the corner has snapped off one of them). What I can tell from the little research I have done on them, is these are all non bloated version. So with all this I had some questions, Any help would be greatly appreciated

- I know there are 3 roller colors, How do I find out which one goes with the models I have?
- How hard will it be to find the parts I am needing? Preferably genuine
- Where is the best place to find parts? and roughly what I should be paying for them>
- What is a complete Optimus Prime Worth out of the box?
- All 3 trucks were mixed together in the box and separated from the trailers. Is there a difference in the Takara vs Hasbro Optimus Primes trucks? I can't seem to find a manufacturer stamp on the trucks

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am a bit iof a newbie with this sort of stuff.

Thanks Guys,

Andy
