Great Pics! The first one looks like something I'd do. My wife has several Dollhouses in her Girly Place (like a ManCave, but more flowers & pastels & kitties) that regularly get 'squatters'. She only really got upset when the Luchadores and the Uruk Hai had that battle royal in the new house.

Do you have the figure (machine Man) that goes inside the car/robot suit? Godaikins are awesome. A couple things to keep in mind with them are completeness (the bigger the robot, the greater the number of tiny, tiny breakable pieces) and condition: the die-cast can chip and scratch easily, especiall...

LD, I'm guessing YuGiOh but I'm really not sure.

Great Score, Dinobot! My wife has a complete set (maybe some spare figures and a scooter too if you need any).

When I was a more active ebay seller, I used the buyitnows as well as auctions. BIN were used mainly for items I had multiples of, and were usually packaged and from more recent lines, auctions were for everything else. However, there are quite a few sellers that seem to have some outrageous prices ...

Nope. Lots of toy robots came before and the gimmick of transforming robots wasn't new or unique to Transformers. If Transformers is in, what about Shogun Warriors, Gobots, Micronauts, Robotech, Voltron, and Power Rangers? One might argue that 'Transformers' tends to be the catch-all title for robot...

Rapido + Cindersaur and Scorch + Doublepunch?
Yep, that's the double packs, Scorch (from the Generations Hound mold) also has Shattered Glass Ravage. Singles at the show were slice (attendee freebie) and G2 Sideswipe at the customs class.

After reading OptiMax's above post, I was able to get a Thrust as well. Still looking for Drift.

Edit:
went to walmart early this morning & I stumbled upon a Predacon Bruticus on closeout. He's not Drift and he's not even on my want list, but $11 is hard to say no to.

Picked up three 12 inch Joes at Marshalls recently. 2 I had never seen before. http://i37.photobucket.com/albums/e74/cosmicmuhammed/006-27.jpg Cobra Eel (new to me) and Torpedo. Both are pretty basic but I really like the frogmen at a $10 price point. Both have great head sculpts, Torpedo's recalls ...
