its missing so many parts I'm using it to make a custom figure. {So thanks for the offer but I don't need a head as I'm going to make one for him.}

OKAY....I think I hit the mother load of hauls!

I forgot about these two preoders I had made and they both arrived yesterday! It was Christmas in October! In the following pics...I hate when I misplace parts. You'll notice the top cover of then magnus truck is missing. Couldn't find it! :cry:

The trailer comes apart in to individual pieces that then simply snap and attach onto Ultra Magnus! It thing is so sweet, I MUST get the Shadow Upgrade Kit for the Nemesis Magnus! :D Also, the instructions came in the form of a mini comic book! :D In the middile of the story he starts to convert and the comics step by step show how to convert his upgrade! VERY 8) 8) 8)

Introducing the Fan Custom Ultra Magnus Trailer Upgrade kit for my Classic Unltra Magnus Figure:

(Notice the big honkin' gun!!!)

***Introducing the Transformers Collector's Club edition of Piranacon!

He is of equal sturdy construction as the original. And I was even quite impressed with the collector's box in which it came. It's NOT cheap cardboard, but heavy duty. And the pieces as you'll see in apic come with the protective foam inserts. I like the repaint color scheme too. :D However they did not come with stickers to put on them. But they did have very 8) bio cards on each of them!

You'll notice that I have finally patiencely captured the three different varients. And speaking of misplacing pieces, I'm missing overbite for the God Neptune one. :cry: And I never have merged Overbite with combined figure. Don't know why? :oops:

****AND finally I captured the KO Prehistory Animal Series Grimlock! He is a very 8) piece too! Here's groups pics:

I saw a vid up on youtube about that UM trailer. He looks freaking awesome. And honestly, your entire haul looked sweet SentinelPrime. Those were some great finds.

^^ @ sentinel

ah very nice. I'm debating getting the city commander trailer...but I don't have classics UM and it's a huge pain to find at a reasonable price. Still as it's made by a relatively tiny, fan-driven company, i may not have the chance to get it at this price again. hmm

that TF club piranacon looks fantastic...I keep wanting to get it, and I know sometime last week there were fewer than 100 left at the hasbrocollector shop, but i've got a fully complete original piranacon...and my funds have been recently exhausted in obtaining a huge haul consisting of 5 guys (4 small, 1 extremely expensive). Ah shiz...damn this credit crisis.

KO prehistory grimlock is superb. i've always wanted to get some of the pretransformers dinobots...meh diaclone swoop as well.

^ @ minerva

awesome. i see grimlock is among them, as well as one of my favorite lackeys, Dreadwind!

@ SP - Thanks! The blue cab truck is the Autobot Headquarters. I'm not sure about the official name since I've seen several different names for it, but I'm sure someone around here knows for sure!

Kup....I got both my UM Upgrade Kit and my Transformers Collector Club Piranacon from BBTS. I've found that BBTS is more reliable than TFSource. I got my UM Kit for $76.99, and worth EVERY penny! (Just noticed the Kits are now sold out!)

BBTS still has some Collector Club Piranacon Sets Available too!

The more I see the city commander set the more I really want it, and with it being a limited run I just don't ever think I will get it :(

very cool that you snagged it SP, very cool indeed 8)

Wow Sentinel, that's what I call a haul. I really love the city commander thing too. The prehistory dinobots are awesome, and I am wondering how much did the transformer club piranacon set you back?
