    I remember last year when we had a stinking hot New Years seeing that the rub signs on my Classic TFs were activated just by radiant heat.
    Yes Sydney has also had some hot weather but I think you guys in Melbourne will have it worse. I hope your TFs and other action figures / toys will be okay. I do think the heat is not too good for the plastic.

    The rubsign on my Classics Prime is also activated, despite the fact that I've placed it on a level of a bookshelf that's facing away from the sun, with the blinds regularly down! I think when living in units, the higher up you go the hotter it gets (at least that's been my experience).

    Other sucky thing about this weather is its not very desirable to speak the universal language.

    I took my Machine Wars Prowl to Malaysia in their 'summer' hottest time of the year, his head turned a greeny yellow shade I also noticed that Beastwars toys fresh out of the box there dont have working rubsigns, i think the heat effected them all

    Just checked my classics. Most have their rub signs semi activated, if not completely. And according to my clock's thermometer, my room is sitting just under 30degrees
