I spent about $100 on Mini-Cons last week.

Got 4 of them.

See? Still crazy.

Here’s the thing.

I really *do *display everything I have. Boxed stuff that doesn’t go on display gets sold. Since I already have BotCon Classics Thundercracker and Skywarp, buying the Henkei versions would really have been just an excuse to spend money. At any rate, between now and the end of the year I have

-MP Thundercracker
-MP Ultra Magnus
-City Commander armor
-Encore Metroplex
-Encore Skywarp & Thundercracker
-eHobby Omega Sentinel (and all his $215 fuck-ass glory)
-Henkei USA releases
-Club Seacons
-Club Nightbeat
-BotCon registration
-A February Wedding…

So…canceled Henkei Thundercracker and Skywarp…I’m pacing myself. :bgrin:

Wait, Henkei USA releases. Are you saying the Henkei repaints are coming stateside?

I’m wondering who the characters are in the background of this pic. Thoughts?

(see attachment)

I’m pretty sure the one on the top left is Nemesis Prime, though I could be wrong.

No, but the Henkei releases of Silverbolt, Onslaught, and Powerglide are called “USA releases” for whatever reason.

Top left: Nemesis Prime
to his right: Ramjet
below Nemesis Prime: Dark Scorponok

Far right, top: Skyfall
to his left: Sentinel Maximus
below him: Alpha Trion

Vector Prime is the main character. The mini-con on his arm is Safeguard.

Got my pre-order in for MP Thundercracker and Ultra Magnus.

I’ve been meaning to ask, how extensive is your G1 collection? Do you have a MIB Landcross or Road Caesar?

Once you’ve seen or owned the toy, the faces become pretty recognizable.

G1 is odd with me. I actually have quite a bit, but probably not as much as you might think after seeing the other collection.

I am really picky about buying G1. I prefer Re-Issues when ever possible. Because of this, I usually only buy it in person. The other thing is that G1 prices are kind of stagnant. They don’t rise quickly nor do they fall quickly. With that being said, I tend to buy them at my leisure. It’s not like Cybertron stuff where the mark up is 300% after 2 years…:bluu:

Anyway, here it is:

“probably not as much as you might think” he says. I wish I had that number of G1 figures. Seeing your collection pics is like a stab in the heart considering I had many of those when I was a kid and was too stupid to hold onto them.

I have a lot fewer G1 figures than I did two months ago. :frowning: It’s gonna be FUN building the collection back up once I get a regular fucking job somefuckingwhere. Fuck. I can’t believe my wal-rat went for a dollar and thirty fucking cents. Fuck. (I’m not happy.)

yeah I know, what the hell is up with that? you see a $20 figure go for ridiculous prices. I see that and I think “what!? that was a shelfwarmer for HOW long!?”.

makes me sick to my stomach sometimes

Frenzy_Rumble’s Menasor is complete. He’s put up galleries for 4 of the 5 Stunticons.

I don’t really feel like uploading these to my photobucket account so you’re going to have to register to view them. But it’s well worth it.

Breakdown

Deadend

Dragstrip

Motormaster

Your collection is awesome !! Are these all loose old school figures or you have mixed in some of the reissues? However the Victory Leo feels lonely without a Star Saber.

I debated ordering Thundercracker for a while, like by himself because I had Skywarp from the Magnus/Warp 2-pak…and I managed to talk myself out of it because I ended up making my own TC Classic last year.

Frenzy_Rumble’s Wildrider

I’ll post the link to the Menasor gallery once it’s been set up. Again, you have to register to TFW2005 to view these, but it’s worth it.

And finally, Menasor

He is on eBay: link to auction

Yea, there’s no way I’m getting this…

That Menasor is beautiful…

Been in a funk as of late, but I’ve come out of it and caught up on my figures.

These are purchased as of late Aug/Sep

Fracture is awesome. And I know I’m months late, but I want a Big Daddy as well as TFA Magnus.

Hey, they are out now, Satomi. Wal-Mart should have a huge aisle display. I saw all of the newest releases and plenty of them (sans Jolt, however). They put Big Daddy out again. I think they did a huge toy reboot.
