If anyone was at all curious, I can confirm that the Buzzworthy Bumblebee rerelease of Shatter has tighter joints than the original. Some bits still fall off but it's nowhere near as bad. The arms don't fall off at all which were the most annoying bit on the first one.
I'm not suggesting everyone go out and replace their existing Shatter (unless it reeeeeeaally annoyed you like it did with me) but if you skipped the first release because of the QC I'd suggest you give this one a chance.
In every other way that I can tell, this toy is identical to the first release as far as plastic colours, paint apps, etc.
Looking to buy lucky draw Armada Prime and Diaclone Marlboor Wheeljack.
