Got a Animated Ultra Magnus finally yesterday

Along with Rail Spike from Rid! now I just need Midnight Express to make Rail Racer!

Need to get the missile/train connector for the other one that I can't remember his name for the life of me!

Night Ranger gets no love because he's such a fragile figure, but I adore him. I, too, am looking for the red & white variants...then my gobots shelf can be patriotic!

Ramjet those are some great unique finds. Did you find those on dumb-bay? I love the helmet, but as you said the - the head just doesn't work for me.

Got my order from the store here today: G1 Jazz and Seaspray
RiD Prime(who I perfer to refer to as Fire Convoy) and Universe 1.0 Sunstorm, which came with Minicon Inferno and the Street Action Minicon team.

Never had Jazz as a kid, didn't realize how short he was! Very happy to have him though considering Universe/classics has only put out a legends class so far.

Didn't really care for the Minicons that came with Sunstorm... but I guess the three that form into Armada Perceptor are alright, at least there not in the awful colors of the show.

Piranacon, after seeing all the pics of Darkwind I think I want one now! Great find!

I just picked up Skyhopper from the P.O. I love him and he's near mintt!

Best part it came with near perfect condition paperwork! There is a flier with pretenders on one side and micromasters on another. Both sides show transformers as they were originally planned. The finished product looks different. It's neat to compare the two!

Well I haven't gotten them yet but I've used some of the money I got for my B day {All I got from friend and family were 6 X box 360 games [Rainbow six vegas, saints row 2, elder scrolls oblivion, devil may cry 4, fallout 3 and mass effect] and a DVD [resident evil degeneration]} to buy these:

Henkei inferno [~£23], Henkei megatron [~£15] {On sale}, Henkei Ramjet [~£7] {Again on sale} and a zoids rebirth century HRZ-010 Tiga Godos [~£25] {all from hobby link japan}

The stealth lockdonw set {I got it for 50% of the retail price. I'll try to sell the animated legends figures out of the set as I don't want them.}

Rail Racer is a stellar figure. You'll probably like Landfill too. Landfill has 3 different official configurations, as well as individual robot and vehicle modes.

I like to form Landfill from Grimlock, Heavyload and Hightower and leave Wedge transformed and then connect him to make a "super Wedge" mode. Keep in mind you can choose any of the 3 bots to become the upper body of Landfill, so that makes 14 different configurations you can do:

4 regular robot modes
4 regular vehicle modes
3 Landfill configurations
3 "Super Wedge" configurations
