:lol: :lol: :lol:

Sweet! Your return to casual throwing around wads of money on uniquely shaped bits of plastic and metal inspires me, sir.

But MP Starsky and MP Prime w/ Trailer....if you're going to blow money, you might as well get the good ****, right?

"Ah, the prodigal son returns...." :twisted:

I'm just trading MP01 Prime (Takara) for an Overlord... can't wait for that toy...

I ordered MP Screamer last week. He has shipped. :(

I might get Trailer Prime later, if he becomes cheap.
Grrr. Argh.

After umpteen years without buying any (Micromaster Combiner squads being my last), I broke and bought the Generation One Prowl and Inferno, back in the summer.

A few weeks ago. a chance visit to TRU yielded Tracks, Red Alert and Skywarp.

Aside from any other G1s I stumble upon, that's probably it for me...

The box for MP-04 is probably the nicest I've ever seen for a TF.

Could always flat-pack the cardboard, although you'd still have to dump the moulds.

I bought some RID and ARmada when they came out - sold them later as they are crap... But already some of the Energon toys were decent, and Cybertron rocked (mostly), especially the Hasbro specials that were all made as hommages to G1.

Now I 'fear' that things back at hasbro's hands... I'll have to get everything.

Except the movie toys. I might buy Starscream and repaint him to Apeface, though.
