Absolutely, and such a good line. So many good and interesting updates of legacy characters, but presented in a fresh way. The Prime and the Bumblebee are still some of the best versions of those characters we’ve ever had.
My only regret is that Astrotrain and wave 2 never showed up in Woolworths and I remember the months of nothing but Rodimus on the shelf until the film came out
The most important evolution of design exhibited in this wave being the fully poseable all in one F15 seeker mould. Takars had attempted it before with Robotmasters to limited success. But here, here was the future!
Regret selling alot of these, ive only ever experienced Hot Rod as Sideburn and thought that was swish, definitely gotta get Starscream again, these were peak!
I just picked up Cliffjumper from that line to start fleshing out my replicas from Shattered Glass! I do have Nova Prime in storage, but he and Cliffjumper are now the only legit figures from that.
Such a great time with some great molds. I still have the seekers (minus both versions of Starscream which both broke) in these along with Magnus and Nemmy Prime. That Megatron was fun to play with, perfect sized for my son's a few years later.
The one I've still got is in a storage tub somewhere, but IIRC the front part is painted clear plastic. Does depend on formulation and whether parts are joints but clear plastics tend to be more brittle and not age as well.
it always depends, for figures like classics bumblebee and cliffjumper, it shouldnt be a problem unless youre very rough with it or really unlucky with your copy

(and sprouted ankle tilts, sure)
For my 8th birthday I got that Walmart exclusive set of Classics/Animated/'07 Bumblebees
Also, realizing Classics is almost as old as I am does NOT sit right haha.
Funnily though my OG Rodimus only had half an elbow pin so it kept popping out.
