For me:

- WW Grimlock bust (it's a beauty I'm glad to have now that the Titanium now won't see release)
- RC Barricade
- RC Optimus Prime
- RC Bumblebee (all from Tandy, got some for Iceburn too but that's all that was left. Doubt I would've got them if they were more than $10)
- Junker Crumplezone. My aunty picked it up for me and since ti's free, I cant complain. That said, it's surprising how cool the toy is despite missing those two launchers. Very impressed it can be missing so much yet be so decent a figure still. Cybertron was good.
On an offnote, I also opened Dark Crumplezone and was surprised to find how cool the remould was. There are significant differences in the alt mode that are quite cool. If Hasbro made this effort with TFM figures, I'd be far more impressed
It'd be even more beautiful if it could transform! :)Quote:

Lucky my boy shoved a Batman bomb up his nose and had to go to the doctor's. Gave me a chance to come home and go through my ebay wins and negotiated deals.
Trypticon, Omega Supreme and Shockwave from a private deal. Probably the biggest buy I am likely to do this year.
All I can say is.....w00t.:D
Demolisher and minicon Blackout from Oz Ebay.
Whirl was a junker I scored off Demonac months back but finally gave him the new rotor blades and canopy he needed on the weekend which I scored off a non-Ozformer. All happy here!:)

RC is short for remote-controlled. You play with them via the remote, I'm guessing ;)Quote:

I have got my December and January acquitions from Japan/Hong Kong all mixed up... (and not all are TF related... :p )

yeah, The arm of the little bot in mine broke in just the first few minutes since I unpacked and played with him. He's more of a statue now (fixed) I only pose the outer shells. Stupid gold syndrome hmp :mad::mad: dont even try on yours lest you end with a decapitated inner bot.Quote:

Saintly already explained the the RC part so I'll just confirm on the play part. The play value isn't great. The gun really only holds the toy when you're not playing so it doesn't shoot the TF off. To play with this Spychanger, you've got to point at the car with the gun and use two arrow buttons: backward and forward. It's not that much fun after awhile because you can't really do turns, it's just straight back and forth. Good for $10 tho. If you want, I'll nab u some if they're still on sale on Saturday. Last time I was there, there was only Barricade and BB left.Quote:

G1 Pointblank w/ Peacemaker. It's been awhile since I first bought a G1 figure of any value and given I intend to complete my G1 collection by years end, this is where I start. I nabbed it at $55. Can't complain cos I'd budgeted for more!
The toy's in excellent nick and stickers are really really impressive. I think this guy was an ex-collector, he' took exceptional care with the toy to keep it this good for so long.
One of the frustrating things I've found was all the extra paperwork is a pain. I normally don't give a rats when buying but I hate ending up with the paperwork b/c feel obliged to store it away safely b/c of the vintage nature of it.

Apeface with outer-box, decoder, instructions and very good condition catalogue!
Nice! I got that toy for a Xmas present in 1987... the weapons went missing though, grrr.
Anyway, after 7+ hours of searching and driving around I finally got myself a lockable glass cabinet for Masterpiece "Time Warrior"*
