The TRU versions could be found for under $10 on average. The TFC's were always around $30. I could look at my collection to see skips in the reissues.

I'd see a 00, 06, 07, 09, 10, 11, 12, etc ...

There are no differences between the TRU and TFC versions besides the packaging right?

SLIGHT weapons alterations. The TFC's had G1 accurate weapons (size and chromed). The TRU's had retooled weapons to meet US safety standards.





it's a bit hard to see, but the red boxed prowl has longer, more crayon looking missiles.


look at poor skywarp.


that missile on the right arm used to be 2 inches shorter. the missile on the left arm used to be more thin and narrow.
