Finally purchased the last G1 combiner I needed. Won it for $80 even and with free shipping :o which was a nice surprise. A 100% complete G1 Abominus:

And here they are as a lot. Will be adding a new shelf too so I can spread things out (took down all the minibots to make room).

Piranacon sits across the room (for now) all by his lonesome. :lol:

Great catch Roadbuster and I think $80 was a steal! :shock:

That's awesome Optimus Maximus. Bet it was a very nice surprise to see all those new figures out on the shelf. :)

I had a lapse in will power the other day.

I picked up Generations Soundwave. Which was bad of me since I told the gf I would cut back.... Then I purchased Thunderwing.... I knew I shouldn't have done that. But, I did. Then I thought, you know what? There are a lot of new figures coming. And, I don't want to hunt them down. So I did some preordering.... Scourge, Kup, Wheeljack, Thundercracker, & Warpath. Icing on the cake is that I won't be able to fit them into my display case as it is full. Lucky for me I finished building the third one a few days ago.

So much for cutting back. Later I'll add Perceptor, wreckgar & Generations Arcee to the list. Classiverse is going to break me...

I was definately surprised to see them ALL in the same store at the same time. My taxes came in Sat. so I'll be going back tomorrow to see if RTS Perceptor and RTS G2 Prime are still there. I really hope they are.
172 and counting. :)_

Their Autobot counterparts are on their way as well. Will post pics of those two when they arrive. :wink:

clones are really neat to display in robot mode. People who see them ask "Why do you have 2 of this figure?"

Classics Optimus is a really cool toy. I'm surprised I haven't worn any paint off of mine from transforming him so often....As promised, clones of the Autobot variety: Fastlane and Cloudraker. Missing 1 gun, but for the price i got them for I really can't complain. At least Fastlane had the spoiler piece which can run $20 alone. :roll:

Scored a Rock Lords Blast Rock, as well as 3 G1 Grimlock missiles. My 1985 US G1 is complete. Only a few more parts to go...
Pix of Blast Rock will appear in the archive when I get to it... possibly not til i'm back.

Nice! Great finds everyone! I didn't even know of Sixbuilder or Sixturbos existence. Sweet looking figs though!

I used to own a few Rock Lords myself when I was a youngin'. Can't for the life of me recall who they were though. Wish I would have held on to them. :cry:

@ Minerva: Jazz looks great! And of course I love the micromasters (me being a micromaster freak and all!).

@ TT: Congrats on completing the 1985 line up TT!

@ Roadbuster: I thought I said so already, but if I haven't - I really really love those clones... Must have!
