    It really suprised me how bad it was.

    I know people on forums always seems to complain about everything but the ones I saw yesterday were truly crap.

    Kind of sad really.

    I saw it for $100 today and I thought it didn't look that bad really, but I prefer the US packaging with the flap and all.

    Myers Hurstville and Roselands are dangerously overstocked in this toy, each department had at least 20 on the shelf. I wouldn't be surprised if they remain shelf warmers and a few months from now we see them reduced half priced.

    To be honest, once I saw it in person it didn't seem as awful as it does in the pictures but it is still a considerably inferior reissue. I went through several of them checking them out, they suffer from bad QC when it comes to the chorme. One of them had this big dent on the front grill while another had what looked like a hacking damage mark on the side as if someone hit it with an axe.

    If you plan to buy this toy, check it very carefully before you do.
