yeah - i would like the 80's back - minus reaganomics + cold war. I have enough Primes but I hope the 25th Anniv. G1 Prime sells. Too bad Megatron couldn't get his own set.

The toy looks like the original, comes with the same accessories, and even has some paint scratches revealing metal. However, it has no date; only Takara on it. Also, it looks a little too good to be 20+ years old. I am thankful that I have Ratchet, but am wondering if this is a KO or not.

Does this mean Seibertron.com's is a fake? http://www.seibertron.com/transformers/toys/g1/beachcomber/402/

The stamp says only : "Takara, Japan"
Whereas MINE says "hasbro, 1980-1982; Takara 1980-1982 japan"
Is it possibile that he's just a pre-hasbro version?
