I was only being truthfull I my have to beg her to feed this seeker jet ( either that or go to the chippy )

My current set of alternators:


{I'll be getting sunstreaker, rolbar, camshaft and decepticharge eventually. Of the other four [prime, nem prime, sklids, swerve] I don't care much for three and the other is to expensive}

Oh and when I was putting them into vehicle mode I fixed something thats been bugging me:

(well he does look evil anyway.)

I currently don't have any of the Alternators But they are starting to grow on me. I can see the appeal of them now from looking at the pics that have been posted here. A few questions for those of you that have them.
1) Are they diecast or plastic?
2) What would be a good one to start collecting with(ie not to expensive and abundant)

Alternators are plastic, Binaltech (Japanese version) are die-cast and plastic.

The more expensive binaltech (japanese alternators) have die cast [metal] parts. the standard hasbro alts are all plastic. {some binaltech figures are also of a higher quality.}

Well the easiest (cheapest) ones to get would be either a suberu {richoet, smokescreen, silverstreak} , Sideswipe [dodge viper] or Rollbar/swindle [jeep wrangler]. all are quite good as starter figures.

(just don't start with optimus prime, as he will instantly put you off the figures. Purely as he will not line up correctly in vehicle mode after you've transformed him once. )

Funnily enough I'd probably do the same if i had them.

Sadly Derrick wont buy anything that is not from the origanal series from the 1980s coz he says the first is usually the best

Not always. Case in point:

Computers.

Bet he wouldn't want to pick the moths out of the vacuum tubes before checking the forums... Oh, dammit, where'd i put the punchcards to get me to TFL...

Sorry dude but i grew up with the cartoon..

I paint myself blue for a couple of shows and this is what happens......

Thats a sweet collection Sunstreaker! I always go with the cartoon colors too. Its easier for me. Kenner did the same thing with the star wars 4-lom and Zuckus.

You mean you have a end to this..this condition we all share? Everyday that target gets a little further away as they keep coming out with more and more figures.
