    I doubt the average factory workers in China have enough time or money to ever access a computer.

    The QC is the responsibility of the toy companies. How much they pay the factories and their workers, they get how much back from the workers.

    the head on that mould does pop off really easily though. Did you give the box a shake to see if you could hear it rattling around there somewhere?

    As recently mentioned on another thread, my first WFC Bumblebee had a dodgy right foot that didn't clip in properly. I've since exchanged it for another one whose right foot _just_ clicks in okay, but not very strongly. But I cbb exchanging it again.

    The same with Leader Brawl. I lost count of how many headless Brawls I saw at the shops. Doesn't help that it had the "Try Me" hole... very tempting for kids with grubby little fingers.

    Yea shook it around and looked hard into it, nadda. And the box was sealed so someone didn't just return it with no head either

    If I am right, Hasbro don't deal with TF factories in China. They deal through Takara.

    Takara has more than one contracting factories in China. The skills of workers in different factories vary. It's just matter of luck which toys will be made by which factory. I found couple of times the exclusive is not as good as normal. I guess exclusive toys are made by relatively small factories while toys like Leader Optimus Prime are made by bigger one.
