    As for prices (if complete and in good condition):

    TM Rattrap - $20
    TM Depth Charge - $50
    Original Inferno - $40
    TM Cheetor - $20
    TM Tarantulas - $25
    Fuzor Quickstrike - $20
    TM2 Cheetor - $25
    TM Optimus Primal- $40
    Original Tarantulas - $30
    TM2 Prowl - $20
    Original Waspinator - $30

    Rough price guide there for you.

    But yeah, get the pic of the pieces up.
    All fair prices if complete, from that picture all but Inferno look pretty good and mostly complete. Depth Charge's tail/sword is definitely in the bag so only his gun/drone and missiles and discs to find.

    You can always try tfu.info for guides as well, but Verno is the BW expert here, so if he cannot identify it, it isn't BW related.

    Hey Verno
    Took photos of all the loose bits and some more closer pics of the figures.
    Really appreciate your help with this as i have no idea on BWs.
    (also there were a bunch of small discs that were not in the photo)

    I really miss this part of Collecting. There was nothing as fun as matching up incomplete figures with pieces.

    Ok, here we go.

    5th Picture:

    TM Tarantulas - One of his spider legs is in Picture 4, and his weapon (which looks like a Pizza-Cutter) is in picture 1. With those he should be complete.

    Fuzors Quickstrike - His Snake Arm is in Picture 2. And so long as he has both parts of each foot and the scorpion face that pivots around his robot groin-area, he's complete.

    6th Picture:

    TM Cheetor - He's meant to come with a blue Tail/Axe but I can't see it in the pictures anywhere sadly.

    Original Inferno - He's got pieces everywhere. In Picture 1, there are two z-shaped black insect legs to are his. And there is a long black missile (next to an orange gun in the pic) that is also his. And also in Picture 1 is a grey launcher with a red trigger on it (next to Tarantulas' pizza cutter) which is Inferno's too. In Picture 2, there is another long black missile (crossing over a grey wing) which is the 2nd of Inferno's missiles. Also in Pic 2 is a big red and grey mouth piece with black antenna - also Inferno's. So with all that put together, Inferno should be complete!

    7th Picture:

    Original Tarantulas - In Picture 1 (next to a red insect leg) there is a black missile with an oval tip at one end. There is another one like it in the 2nd picture (underneath a black army-looking gun). And so long as the string in Tarantulas's back is still attached to his hook missile and he has his launcher (which sits in his back) he is complete.

    TM Depth Charge - In Picture 1 there is a long yellow missile. There should be 2 of them, but I can only see one in the pictures. The large grey tail in Picture 3 is his. He should also come with a blue shark/gun, but I can't see it, as well as 7 yellow disks, which may be hiding under his robot head, so just lift up the flap and have a look.

    8th Picture:

    TM Rattrap - Looks complete, as he has his tail/whip.

    TM Optimus Primal - In Pic 1 there are two grey clubs sitting next to each other, they are Primal's. The only thing he seems to be missing is his gun/launcher, which is big and brown, sadly it doesn't seem to be there.

    9th Picture:

    Original Waspinator - Has pieces all over the place like Inferno. In pic 1 (next to Primal's clubs, there looks like one of his grey missiles, but it looks like it's broken. In Pic 2 is one of Waspinator's wings, the big grey one with Inferno's leg sitting on top of it. In Pic 3 is the other Waspinator wing, plus his gun which is yellow and green, and his other missile is poking out of it. In Pic 4 there is a grey chest piece (next to TM Tarantulas' purple leg).

    TM2 Cheetor - Pic 1 has Cheetor's yellow tail. Pic 3 has Cheetor's gun which has purple chrome and yellow spikes coming off the bottom of it. The missile is also in Pic 3, up the top, just above the big orange gun.

    10th Picture:

    TM2 Prowl - Looks to be complete.

    There are quite a few random BW parts in there as well. Pieces belonging to:

    TM Optimal Optimus
    Original Armordillo
    TM Waspinator
    Original Cicadacon
    VHS Repaint Airazor
    Original Ramhorn
    Fuzors Skyshadow

    Plus a whole heap of non-BW pieces.

    I hope that helps a bit. Any questions just fire away!

    I actually think those prices are too high. If you look on Ebay, there's just not much interest in Beast Wars and sellers who list their items high rarely sell.
    I have been scouring ebay for the last few months for BW show characters for my son and have therefore been diligently monitoring BW prices. They are just not selling unless the price starts low.
    My advice is to hang onto them and see if interest in BW increases or sell them on ebay at starting prices of 99 cents and enjoy the ride.
    To sum up - Personally, i think they are worth what is stated, but the market doesn't. AND, that is an awesome haul!
    Hope that helps.

    Who knows, Beast Hunters might bring an interest back into 'beast' TFs, so hanging onto them for a little while might be good advice, especially if you can track down a couple of pieces to complete some of the incomplete ones, especially Depth Charge.
