I'd rather do it by getting variants. e.g. when I used to collect Star Wars, I bought lots of different kinds of Clone Troopers and a few different types of Stormtroopers. I never got two of the same toy. With Transformers Prime, I've collected different types of Vehicons, but again, no doubles.*
3/ Deluxe Swerve was never available in Australia. Even if he were, it's not a toy that I would personally pay for. I got this toy for free. :o So if anyone would like to donate more Deluxe Swerves to me, then sure, I might consider army building... but otherwise no. ;)

My TF Prime Vehicons. No two toys are the same.
L-R: First Edition, TFPRiD, Jet Vehicon, Jet Vehicon General, Arms Micron

----------------------------------------------------
*There have only been 3 times when I've ever bought a duplicate toy to army build:
+ In 1989/90 I bought another G1 Cyclonus for $2. He became my "Armada." I've since traded/sold off that second Cyclonus about 15 years ago.
+ Generations Scourge; I bought a 2nd one, and even then, only after I saw them peg-warming for a very long time. But I only have 2 of them, so it's not quite an 'army.'
+ TF Prime Legion Class Vehicon; it was on sale, and those things were plentiful and cheap. Again, I only have 2. :p

I have yet to get myself a Generations Scourge and I'm on the fence about getting more than 1, as I have the feeling that money could be used better to get other toys I've missed, such as Kup, Red Alert (though I might wait for a possible Asian Exclusive 3 pack with the Lambos in cartoon accurate schemes) or Drift. I could get the United version and get 3 Generations versions as Sweeps. That would be cooler, but United toys are hella expensive. :p

Wow, so much chrome. I had to shield my eyes to make out Prime's silhouette! LOL :D

He's a nice figure alright, I could never work out how to get him into that mode though! Might have to give it another go now, you've inspired me.

you shall not pass!
