well i am missing the chest/head part. i have both legas and both arms and the rear "back" bot, but not the chest piece nor the head.
that is why i haven't put them together.
i'm always looking for optimus prime, nemesis prime, ultra magnus, bumblebee, megatron, starscream (allversions EXCEPT BW,BM,TM)

It has needed kibble. The one I was missing for example (sixtrain #4) had the head and the gun, even though he formed the rear end of the combiner.

the one i am missing is #1 of 6. he has the chest plate. i looked them over and realize i have everything but the chest plate to actually combine the figures together.

i actually was considering buying countdown... i saw on on e*** (lol) with box, missing 1-2 pieces but looked good... but was outbid.

maybe next time.

I'll keep an eye out for #1 for ya.

(Obviously :P ) Countdown is my favorite. Usually every few months or so I set him up on top my display cabinets and cram as many micromasters as I can onto his base! I would certainly watch for him. If I see him anywhere that isn't crazy priced, I'll pm ya.

I've been eyeballin' a Black Chase Defensor Micromaster - but the $180 price tag is a little (read: way) too steep. Some day...

thanks for the help in finishing this combiner.... i have been contemplating selling them... but my luck, the day after it is sold i will find one for like 3.00!

Nice purchase Swindle. I want him, but he is so large... I really need another display cabinet for a figure that size (and another couple hundred figures to put into said cabinet).

@ Audiomotionink: That would be an awesome scene... Right now I only have Metroplex. (excluding all micromaster bases). Have you considered just buying a complete set of the Red Chase Sixtrain and selling the other 5?

Picked this up yesterday. Paid way too much for it. I have been looking for one in the box with the bubble insert for a few months now.

I also picked this guy up. Got a great deal on it. I was just after the box since I already own a complete Megatron. I think the sticker of megatron in the upper right scared some folks off. The toy is in such mint condition that I had to pull it from the box to make sure it wasn't a KO.

Found another mint Taiwan G1 KO Transformers figure. Diaclone Takara Cassetteman. (G1 Soundwave) It's actually like the real one! Very tight joints and solid.
Here's the pics:

That reminds me... did I ever post the pics of my Countdown displayed with Galaxy Shuttle?

Also, audio... PM me with a trade list, I have an extra Countdown or two, complete. I think even an extra box.

Finally, to pick nits, Cassetteman is Micro-Change, not Diaclone.

Ko's ahoy

The quality of the orange devastator that has annoying G1 style launching fist action is not good. The joints on some of the figures legs are so tight that after one careful transform they are starting to disintegrate. The KO binaltech thing is based on hound and features metal parts and is decent quality wise.
