Universe Armada Series Mini-Con Class 12-pack
Check out this G1 lot I scored from a local pickup sale for not much more than 100.. They we're covered in dust after probably sitting in a box for the past 20 years. After a few hundred cotton buds, and a couple of hours of elbow grease they're looking pretty sweet.. Read on

Grimlock - nothing broken, chromed tail and arms are badly deteriorated, still a decent grimmy
Optimus Prime - Prime in good condition, trailer is great, includes roller, gun and 2 missiles
Chromedome and Headmaster - great surprise to find the headmaster with this, in great condition, missing roof lasers.. didn't know what it was until looking it up in Bellomo's guide
Scourge - good, stickers are badly worn visible in boat mode, missing cannons
Silverbolt - suprisingly good gold on this guy with the the other 4 aerialbots all in great condition
Topspin - rough stickers and base broken
Not bad for a tenner each :p also some 70's and 80's die cast cars in there somewhere in the dirt
Chromedome's Nebulan partner's name is Stylor, and Scourge's alt mode is meant to be (or at least always portrayed as) a "futuristic" jet. I know it looks like a boat though! :D
Great Score Jetfire!
You can easily find those spare parts that you need at ebay or other online parts stores( prime's fist et al) or if your not that opposed to repro parts, Chromedomes guns are repro'd so its easy to complete him as well. Very well done!:D:D
Buster Optimus Prime arrived today! very excited. He looks stunning with all the added silver and chrome.
Just as lame as sending yourself a christmas card... putting aside purchases for a few weeks for a one-off opening.
On Saturday, for no important reason, I opened up most of the toys I got during this month.
