G1 Blitzwing
Hi all. New to the boards and had a question about G1 Blitzwing.
The Blitzy I have transforms neatly, however the turret detaches with a little encouragement. I never had the toy back in the day - I'm not even sure if it got released in Australia. My question is, is the turret supposed to detach or not? It doesn't look like there are any stress marks on the central peg so it doesn't look like it broke off anything, but that doesn't mean that it didn't break at some point.
Hope someone can help me out.

Unfortunately, I haven't tried a reissue Blitzwing. But probably, a "harder" one, could have to do with the looseness it may have.
a free fort max.......
and a house to display my collection in.....

Could get two wishes for the price of one, Bumblebee, by wishing for a free, life-size and fully-functional Fortress Maximus.
