    Congrats, dude.

    1987 took me ages as well. Fort Max was the last toy from that series for me - by about 7 years.

    I don't really have a personal "deadline" on when to complete any line of toys really. When it comes to 1987 I personally 'need' (more like want): Highbrow, Crosshairs, Autobot Clones, Punch/Counterpunch, Doublecross, Hardhead and Spike. These are all the 1987 Transformers released in Australia that I want.

    The only TF from that year that wasn't released in Australia that I have are Suiken, Stepper, Soundblaster, Twincast, Targetmaster Hot Rod and Targetmaster Kup - all being reissues except for Suiken. When it comes to non-AU TFs in this year I'm not actively seeking them out but I will get them if the opportunity presents itself to me.

    Excellent Mr Digger. May we all celebrate by you gifting me with a galaxy commander.

    Or sell me one in exchange for a secret of the lego-universe.

    As long as my current financial situation continues, may 2009 bring me G1 shockwave and predaking.

    I have a song stuck in my head by an Artist called Nelly.

    "Its getting hot in here! So take take of all your...."



    Milestones, mine are quite lame actually. I just wanted the 3 MP Seekers this year. I did achieve one of every alternator mold however, thanks to dirge. (I nabbed his Nemesis Prime, Roller has taken it hostage, *sigh* hehe)

    I haven't tried to collect G1 because the price for me would be prohibitive, and my g1 collection is really small so my starting point is really low. I just collect vicariously thru you guys!
    MEGATRON Without PRIME is like Bacon without Eggs.

    I have actually paused my G1 collection. The poor exchange rate has made many figures cost prohibitive specially when they are 'regular' G1s and not heavy hitters. I still need a few accessories but the exchange rate has also hurt that as I would be paying the cost of a retail deluxe to import just a small gun.

    I was fortunate to achieved many of my 'Milestones' while the dollar was high and that was getting the expensive figures such as Fort Max, Scorponok, Trypticon and others. In that I count myself very fortunate.

    Now I am concentrating on the newer releases which are not as cost prohibitive as G1 such as Universe and Henkei. Masterpieces are not exactly 'cost friendly' but because they are a single spaced out releases, they happen to be more manageable than the randomness of finding G1s on Ebay.

    Metalhawk? Awesome!

    I have been wanting one since I saw Dirge's but I am not sure if its worth it given that I have other G1 figures to get. Its certainly the best Pretender released in G1.
