(Thanks you, Store Search Archive!)

Only Hightower is complete, the rest are missing bits and weapons.

Armada Optimus Prime
Armada Megatron
Armada Sideways
Armada Overload(?)
Armada Tidal Wave

None of these are complete either, missing bits as well. Unless Overload(?) and Tidal Wave don't come with weapons or anything.

Energon Optimus Prime

Not complete, no trailer.

And one other Scout Class TF that I haven't pinged yet.

Still, thats an ok bunch of TFs for 10 bucks, I guess.
Overload doesn't have any weapons that he carries. He has a Minicon and 2 missiles that go into his feet. He can combine with Supercon/Leader Prime as shoulder weapons, or he can be used as a trailer to haul Jetfire around. I used to have all three, and I still wish I did..

Tidal wave only came with his Minicon and two missiles as well. He could combine with Armada Megs or split into three different gunboats. If I recall correctly, his feet gunboat could open and you could sit Minicons there.. It was pretty neat..

Yeah, as much flak as Armada toys get (and, honestly, occasionally deserve due to widespread poor articulation), Minicons were probably the coolest gimmick because the larger figures were pretty much made to accomodate them, like the Citybots for Micromasters.

Finally picked up Generations Wheeljack and Thunderwing. Now if I could only find Warpath and Thundercracker I would be happy.
172 and counting. :)_
Newest addition to my collection: Generations Blitzwing

Looking for packaging for 20th Anni. Masterpiece Optimus Prime and his axe and Megatron gun. PM me if you have any of these at a reasonable price.

Yesterday I bought Cyberverse Commanders Guzzle and Hatchet. They're both pretty cool, but I already seem to have lost one of Hatchet's weapons.

Very nice RB! I am interested in the Exgraver, but I was told to forget about it. :( Who knows, what she doesn't know won't hurt her! Maybe... LOL

My wife doesn't even ask anymore. :roll: She knows they're expensive but claims they'll be my "life insurance." I just don't know if she's serious though. :? Anyways....yeah, Exgraver is awesome! And selling fast! Last I checked BBTS only had 5 in stock. I think more people are climbing aboard the Hercules bandwagon now that color pics surfaced this weekend for Heavy Labor. These guys look great in the box, as stand alone figures and from what I've seen Hercules itself is going to be killer!

I picked up KRE-O Jazz today. Not bad at all.

Not a fan of the colors, though.

Well in the past month or so I've been collecting CHUGs pretty heavily. And while I normally support/purchase the toys I want from Hasbro (due to price and availability) this character in particular was my first ever purchase from the Henkei line. Comparing the pics side-by-side to his Classics counterpart...the decision was a no-brainer. Here he is.....Henkei Astrotrain:

I like that Henkie Astrotrain!!!

Good to see Smokescreen and Grimlock made it safely to you. It was very difficult for them to excape my Lair. But somehow they got away!! I need better guards

To know others you must know yourself first!
