Milestones

MIlestones hmmm lets see.... well for me I finally nabbed for this year my big wants -
Trypticon
Omega Supreme (encore)
Thunderwing,
Bludgeon,
Carnivac and Snarler,
Finback and Iguanus to complete my decepticon monster pretenders (with some accessories missing but that can easily be remedied),
Wierdwolf and Apeface as well to complete my decepticon headmasters
Squawkbox and Grandslam - with missing accessories on the way :D
The Autobot clones
AND finally get a MAX - Brave Max, which is my preferred color scheme for the mold - all thanks to Kelvinchang99, kup, Gutsman Heavy and jgon and ebay seller therawyde:D:D. Add to that is the fact that Ive finally consolidated my collection into one Last March on my return from holidays in Phils. Also hit the 800+ mark on my collection count this year (and the year's not over yet)!

So this year has indeed been a year of milestones. With all this happening before our dollar went pfffffft, thank goodness. So prolly next year well, theres only a few G1s I am after but I got the more pricey and big ones out of the way :D:D

Edit: almost forgot - Reflector as well :p

I got through a milestone at work today which means no more working weekends, being able to attend lunch meet ups and time to open the 30 or so toys I've got in the past few weeks (that includes five packs).

I should also hit the milestone of 900 toys by the end of this year. Here's to a total of 1000 in the 25th Anniversary Year!

getting the G2 Speedstream out of my cousins house in my undies was a milestone:D

I take it that my conversation with your female boss changed things. Yeah, no need to think me. I know, I know, I am awesomeness.

And looking forward to catching up w/ u too! Been awhile and the shape of things have really changed. I remember back when it was just u, icy and me.

My grail of 15 years is currently sitting in atop some shelving, waiting for Christmas when I can "have it".

Finally got me a complete Thunderclash! :D Seller said the gunw as broken, he was only part right, the gun can no longer sit on the cab roof, but Thunderclash can hold it in either hand just fine!
Only need Skyquake to complete my Turbomaster/Predator collection.

Also got my first complete G1 combiner, even if it was a re-issue with the TFCC Seacons, I have had Menasor and Abominus for ages, but they do not have their feet, hands and chest plates.

Not looking like getting any other grails or finishing year sets anytime soon, the bad $AU has really killed off international buying, really wanted to get as many Car Robots, BWII and Neo figures as I can.

Today I hit this milestone, passing 1000 Transformers :D

My 1000th Transformer was Legends Beachcomber, which is fitting as the original Beachcomber was one of the first ever two Transformers all those many, many years ago.

Congrats! :D I can't remember what my 1000th TF was, wish I'd taken note. :(

Congrats guys! :)

to find all missing parts of my ebay finds! like grapples arm, or optimals head, sunstreakers wheels, and a special jetfire body for jihaxus pair of jetfire legs!

While not as big a Pualbots, I hit a milestone of 100 transformers about 2 weeks ago with legends Ramjet from the Big W Aerial Rivals 5 pack. :)
I count him as the 100th because he was the 100th transformer I removed from package. :D
