    cos scalpers make toys more expensive for the rest of us? Again, not saying that this guy is necessarily a scalper... and 'sif you'd scalp Takara MP Starscream (especially after Hasbro's MP Starscream). But yeah... scalpers deserve nothing less than a good solid kick to the janglies.

    Ha I'll never give up the BT's,

    Easy story behind the multiples, I was bringing a few in for my mates and I and figured I'd add a couple in case anyone else rocked up that was keen. I was able to bring back a bunch extra for the same postage and by buying more I got a better price break on the whole shipment.

    Always meant to sell them just never got around to it, those who know me will put this down to just being slack. My wife would be very very keen to see the multiples gone. Though nowdays I love to see them all lined up surrounding the rest, provides a good backdrop.

    I've opened one MP-04 and one MP-03 and a Ultra Magnus that had it's box damaged in shipping. Hence I needed a second in MISB. Also I received a duplicate BT Grimlock, in an Ebay transaction that went bad, so I opened it up too. MP-03, MP-02, and Grimlock take pride of place on my desk at work (where I spend the most time in one place). Opti sits proudly on my bookshelf.

    Never realised the TF communtiy was so large, I just always collected what I needed and kept them all to my self, I have a bunch of G1's opened complete and in box from my childhood at my folks place carefully put away and stored in the roof with smelly stuff to keep the critters away. Once I move into a bigger place with the wife I might pull them all out. Also have a TF breakfast tray I still eat off from time to time.

    Now I know you are all around, I'll let people know when I'm bringing a bunch in again, might be a while as the collection has slowed down since the house hunting began, gotta save the coin to create a TF Room.

    Heheheh, TF room, most of the collectors here now have that . kinda like our little retreat getaway, hideaway wonderland toy store. You definitely should have it!! I personally would say it takes the stress out after a busy day...

    Oh and welcome to the forum MasterCyl Mabuhay! Do post more pics of your collection in the members collection area. We all love viewing collections. Just start your own collection thread and Paulbot is certain to add it up with the archives

    you would scalp it a better looking version has come out at a more affordable price

    the resale on greenscream is still quite good even after the hasbro release in the better color scheme

    opened takara mp-3's still sell for more than sealed hasbro mp-3's on ebay
