New toys that are yellowing!

So maybe keeping them cooped up is bad?

That looks pretty normal - isn't that how he's supposed to look?

He's not pure white - more like a creamy white colour (or has mine yellowed too?)

hmm I just ahd a look at my Ramjet and put it next to Starscream, he's yelowish white alright, not sure if just got that way or was it like that all the time.. it looks worse next to Henkei Red alert... oh dear, and this one has been in the background of the shelves (dark with shadows) and loosely displayed, hmmmmm

Classics Ramjet is off-white whereas Henkei Ramjet is more pearly white.

Here are some undoctored photos of Classics Ramjet:

Hmm from those pics looks like henkei ramjet is prone to yellowing mine is consistent in that I can't see white anywhere all overs it's the same creamy white

I don't have Henkei Ramjet (nor have I seen one IRL), so I comment about the white on that toy, but here are some photos of Henkei Ramjet:

From recollection, mine's not that yellow, but I'll compare it side by side with my own Drift when I get home tonight.

holy cow that looks mellow yellow! Perhaps an H202 bath may be in order?

i compared it to my hasbro classics one and it was pretty much the same colour

[Vector Prime]

So I had a look at my Henkei Ramjet vs Generations Drift, and my Drift is whiter than Ramjet

It's still not a pure white, but a slightly cream coloured white, one shade lighter than Ramjet.

On the other hand, my Classics Ramjet is pretty much cream coloured compared to the Henkei one and is probably two shades less white than my Drift.

Go figure... Drift and Classics Ramjet are displayed in a glass cabinet away from sunlight or any direct light whatsoever whereas Henkei Ramjet is pretty much stored in the dark
