My first Transformer was the original G1 Prowl from the 83-85 time range. I cannot remember if he was plastic or diecast metal. Does anybody remember?

He was partially plastic and part Die-cast metal.
Not all Plastic. Almost all of the medium sized G1 line was like that. In fact I can't think of one Med. sized character that was all plastic. Last edited by Ronnie Dobbs; 12-30-2008 at 09:31 PM.. |

I have him in my hands. The chest/hood is Metal, the feet/rear pannels of the car are metal, the rest is plastic and he has rubber tires.

Was there much metal in Grapple and Inferno? Those two I seem to remember being plastic or mostly plastic. I think that was the start of the trend. But I've been wrong before.

Thanks fellas. I thought there was some metal.
Is Binaltech the only new Transformer line with die cast metal?
