    Open them and transform them in the parking lot before you go home. You may be bringing half of them back for exchange. I just went and got a few today and had scratched paint in the package, and one figure had a part that kept coming off because the tabs to hold it on were molded larger than the holes they went in. I love the design of these figures, I just wish the quality control was a little better. I think Sideswipe is my new fav figure. Definitely check them out good before you get too far, it might save you an uneccessary trip.

    If you are not fussed on Human Alliance figs, go for Sideswipe. Also Leader Prime and Megs should cost you enough for now.

    check the paint out. A lot of the Sideswipes and Sideways I saw had a good amount of scratches in the paint while still in the package.

    Sideways and Breakaway have some color variants. Darker and lighter. (personally I prefer the darker Sideways, seems to go with the red better)

    Skids apparently has painted/unpainted teeth. Some of them are unpainted I mean. If you angle the package right though, you can see his face through the windshield and drivers side window (drivers side on an american car) and you can check to make sure that your Skids does indeed have his gold and silver tooth.

    Uhm,...that's all I got for now. Still haven't opened Soundwave or Rampage yet.

    HAVE FUN!!!!!!!!
