g1 weapons

For the autobot cars how do I tell which Identical weapons goes to whom? Does is matter? Even if there is spot of chrome wear to tell the plastic color?

it's by chrome wear under the orig. piece.

Trailbreaker/Hoist: undercolor is Red or Orange, respectively.
Ratchet/Ironhide: same
Smokescreen/Prowl/Bluestreak: Not positive, but I think prowl has white and the other two have red? These it doesn't matter since they all feature red in their color scheme, and both Prowl and Smokescreen also feature white.
Grapple/Inferno: same (black)



Well, I guess Trailbreaker/Hoist are the only ones I'd be wary of, since if there's orange showing on TB or red on Hoist, it wouldn't jive too well.


BTW: I once came into a heavily worn Drill Powerdasher. Probably original. Under the heavily worn chrome, 4 different colors of plastic!

Just to pour some salt on the wound, there are two version's of Grapple/Inferno fists and rifle sets. One is wider than the other; at the moment I am unable to tell which came first.
