Not sure how many would even be remotely interested in this but I found it interesting that this was listed in Melb. Pretty novel.

And it ain't that bad, Paulbot, we got the RH for a bit less than RRP here anyway with combined shipping and sale prices anyways so I'm not complaining.

It's beyond me as to why they would paint that figure in those hideous colours...

Furthermore, I bet this Seller realised "Why the hell did I buy this piece of sh#t in the first place?" & is hoping to get their money back...

A lot, and I mean a LOT, of First Strike OPs seen at Target on Broadway, along with Evac.

K-Mart in the same place had a Bumblebee vs Barricade 2-pack, as well as a 3-pack of Arcee, Starscream, and OP. There were also a bunch of key chains (Barricade and Megatron were the ones I saw), as well as the AllSpark Power Scouts (not with Storm Surge, though).

Spotted premium Jazz, Bumblebeee & Barricade at a Sydney TRU.

I'm glad that this Jazz is no longer primer grey, but they really should have included the Final Battle Jazz's weapon.

At Hobbyco I spotted Movie Premium Jazz (oooh, shiny), and a lot of the AllSpark Power toys.

I think Hasbro's QC is getting worse. Case in point: Overcast. One had a funny-looking insignia on one wing. At first, I thought "Oh, it's a reference to his corrosive powers, and he's corroded himself!", and applauded such attention to detail. Then I had a closer look, and saw that it was actually a second insignia stamped over the first.

By all accounts, someone should have noticed that and had the mistake fixed up.

A paint app error would probably be worth something. Not a lot, but would be like having an Optimus Prime with Decepticon symbols painted on it by mistake. Actually, THAT would be worth a fair bit. But you get the idea that a character with the wrong paint apps or allegiance painted on them would be worth something to someone. As long as its legit (still sealed in packaging to prove it).
