    Oh well I'll put it down to that. I actually strted this thread for people to discuss variations in general, not just the one I have been asking about.

    Fair enough. But I figured I'd clear up the situation relating to Transmetals.

    I found a strange little variation when I ws looking at my Jazz/Meisters.
    The two white ones are both alternators, red is a BT. The only difference are these two notches on one side.

    They're on opposite sides. The bottom two are on one side, the top is opposite.
    I just thought that it was strange.

    Maybe the die maker got confused.

    Gamblor, I'd say one of your toys has two left (or right) upper arms!

    No that's not possible, left and right are not interchangeable. I just thought that it was strange that the parts are otherwise identical except for those two small notches. Weird
