    So what is the general consensus.. does this Ramjet have the "correct" decepticon symbols like MP-11 Starscream?

    And is Ramjet cartoon accurate?

    (I already know the view of 1 ramjet is better than 0 official ramjets and that is not my question)

    The symbols are placed the right way up, although too far in on the toy:



    The deco seems to be 'toon accurate though.

    You either have to be working in aviation to really have to kick a fuss about the symbol facing the right way.

    They could have done a rotating logo and made everyone happy but I guess that is too darn hard.

    Well i like to add up a few things to decide if i want THIS version of a mold or will i risk waiting for a better (imo) version. I use a few factors like the ones below to guesstimate the risk..

    1. Who released it? Hasbro, Takara, or Hasbro Asia
    2. How toon or toy accurate it is? The deco may leave room for a more accurate release. Especially if there was any toon consistency to start with.
    3. How limited is this release? How hard will it be to get later if i kinda did want it.
    4. How expensive is it? Ofcourse this can affect if i buy it.

    I think the seam lines for rotating decepticon logos would detract from the seeker mold. A neat idea but I am glad they didn't design it this way. On the flipside, i do wish the logos were all like MP-11 Starscream or consistant among the distinct "triplets" of seekers. So far this is not the case but only time will tell.

    They could have done it in a way that seam lines are symmetrical so either way it doesn't affect the looks you are after, remember at less than half a meter I hardly can see the seam lines.

    From what I thought, PC always gets a small number from japan, and the rest from HK. Thats why they always have a super early bird with limited stock - thats the JP stock, the next waves all are the HK stock.

    Dont quote me on that, but I think thats how they do it

    That's what I thought, cus they said most of them will come late in April. So I think the first run will come early in late this month. Because first run was one month early than the second one, if my memory right.

    ^i think that set up happened with Thundercracker but maybe this time they took a different approach on Ramjet. it would be better for first rounders to confirm directly from PC because honestly im on early round 2 so all i can do is wait
