    Do you display all of those jets?

    Can I ask you a question... Aside from the chrome and different paint apps are there any real differences when you compare say Henkei SS with Universe Acid Storm... is one heavier or of a different quality?

    At the moment they are all displayed on top of our piano which I think really pi$$es my wife off but she's good enough not to say anything. We're currently in temporary residence for at least another eight months *sigh* while our building gets major upgrades done so display space is at a premium.

    I can't say there's a noticeable difference in the weight of Henkei/Hasbro but the plastic seems to be of a crappier quality with Hasbro. That said Acid Storm doesn't seem too bad at all.

    Yeah that's why I specified... you don't have classics starscream?? Did you sacrifice him to a custom or something? I know that when classics G1 starscream is released I will purchase and display with the normal classics one...
    Are you getting Henkei Ramjet cheap?

    Haha...yeah my loose Classics Starscream is now a very delicious Sunstorm. I still have one sealed on the card but I think it's gunna stay sealed. Also have a sealed Classics Ramjet but he too is staying where he is.
    Henkei Ramjet I got for I think $33.35 from memory or possibly $30.35.
    Iceburn can correct me if I'm wrong.

    Never ever really got my head around moc or misb collectables... I'm the guy who would rather play the $200 test press of a vinyl than the $10 cd. Is the Ramjet part of a ozformers bulk order or something? For that price I would definately consider buying one, for the pretty red wings and to put my curiousity about quality to bed once and for all...

    I love to open mine too but I think some look awesome in the packaging and if that's the case and cash flow allows I'll grab two. That said I have nearly the complete movie line all MOSC (and only one of each) coz generally I think they are crap and drab figures and look better in the box.

    And yep....Henkei Ramjet was an Ozformer group buy from Robot Kingdom.
