I want a proper deluxe movie Jazz repainted as Smokescreen but if that doesn't happen I'll be tempted to get FAB Smokescreen.

FAB Frenzy is cool as it's the only transforming Movie Frenzy to be found. I got the FAB Blackout because I was annoyed by Voyager Blackout's complex transformation. The FAB version though feels like a poor/cheap toy but I didn't spend too much on it so I'm not that annoyed.

Fab Ratchet is alright, not great, but if you didnt want to drop $45 on the Voyager for a kid or something, it'll more than pass muster.

Megatron however was as big a turd as I thought he would be.
lucky for me he was dirt cheap.

turtle boy: get a PO box?

Now thats a good idea, thanks Gok, dunno why I didn't think of it before

I'm actually planning to pick up Fireblast Prime. I have a soft spot for that particular mould, and while I didn't see the need for it alongside the Leader Prime, with a different colour scheme, it's enough for me to wanna grab him (:

On the whole, I don't think much of the FAB line. And I don't count Frenzy as a true FAB!

That's a crock of crap. If you made a mistake buying a crap toy, what gives you the right to return it missing an accessory or say its defective when it aint? Atleast if the item is boxed, the store can try and resell it, but a carded toy is harder to sell and missing accessories will make it harder unless it is significantly discounted. Atleast have the gall to accept you bought a crap toy rather than trying to return it incomplete or pass it off as defective when there was nothing wrong with it in the first place.

Argh! You're better off going to eBay. They are awful figures though the paint jobs look decent enough. Any chance you can return them? Say that it was because the toy was defective. Loose, won't transform properly, missing missile. Try and get ur money back, bro. (Hopefully you kept receipt!)

I'll side with Fungal here. You should do the honourable thing and admit that hey, you messed up, rather than snake the store.

Which, to be fair, is turtle boy's original sentiment.

I felt the same way about some of my BM Maximals, turtle boy. I sold them on to another fan. Sure, I lost money on the deal, but I felt a bunch better afterwards.

I refunded General Grievous/Wheelbike because it was a hunk o' crap toy. I thought that consumers had a 7-day cooling-off period thing... the TRU staff member I spoke to told me that this wasn't true and that TRU doesn't honour refunds or exchanges based on change of mind, but still allowed me to exchange/refund it anyway (I can't remember which option I went for - I think I got a refund). Had she stood her ground and refused a refund/exchange, I would've accepted it and kept the toy.

But I otherwise keep my TFs, even if they turn out to be a big waste of money ... like my Supreme Cheetor which I paid full retail price for. :/

Not on small stuff like this you don't, only on cars/houses/whatever.

It's only store policy if they do, it's not law.
