    So I was finally able to luckliy grab up the leader class version of Optimus Prime and Megatron today. They were completely sold out and I just so happened to find these hidden behind some Hannah Montana crap. Anywho, after opening up Optimus, I notice that the left headlight is missing. Has this happened to anyone else and does anyone know how I can get a replacement piece for it or something? It's not really that noticeable, but it's driving me nuts. Any help is much appreciated.

    that's weird.. are you sure the light didn't pop off anywhere in the box? I guess a good idea would be just to return it for an exchange.

    Yeah, I looked in the box and all around the area I opened it at. I also tried to take out the other light to see how easy it would be for it to fall out and I couldn't even get it to budge. I would take it back, but it was the last one, lol. I wonder if I could get Hasbro to provide a replacement light? <_<;

    Hasbro doesn't replace parts---they'll want you to send it in, then they'll try to get you another one---or, a toy of "equal or greater value". (so if you get a 07 Leader Desert Brawl as a replacement from them....)

    Return it to the store.

    I thought it was funny that my leader Prime didn't come with instructions, at least it had all it's parts.

    Oh HELL no. That'd drive me insane. I'd have probably never figured out Prime without the instructions.
