    Just noticed that Animated BB is part of a 25th Anniversary case assortment. I hope the stingers are fixed.

    Why... it's almost as if Hasbro's not paying attention... (o_O)
    The series thing refers to the fictional continuity the toy is supposed to represent, rather than where the toy mold comes from or where it could better fit.

    Roadbuster Vs Dirge represent those two characters as they appeared in the included Marvel G1 comic book. Meanwhile, Springer Vs Ratbat, represent themsleves as their War Within versions form the included WW comic book.

    If I had 25th Anniversary Prime, I would display it on my shelf with my other G1 1984 Autobots but I would never display Universe Roadbuster on my G1 1985 Autobot shelf or Universe Dirge on my 1985 Decepticon shelf - I would display them on my Classics shelf.

    If I were displaying them like that, they'd all be on the Universe/classics shelf for me.

    Sounds like another Classics Soundwave mess.

    Not really. It's easier to just keep them with what the package says/which line it came out within.

    You wouldn't shove the ratbat toy on your cybertron shelf would you?

    I collect Universe/Clasics/Music Label as G1 homages so I'll get this new Starscream for my Classics shelf and he'll replace my Henkei one.
