Does anyone else only collect Megs & Prime ?

[GoktimusPrime]

i have most but some i didnt bother with because they were just to gimmicie.like Energon optimus prime with his (mini primes).quoting hotshot from the series i think.and he looked like he had stacked on a few kilos with the way his new body looked.

Yeah - his nickname in the fandom is "Fatimus Prime." He's also known as "Power Rangers Prime" because his gimmick is so reminiscent of the Power Rangers' Zords when they combine.

i notice you dont have any beastwars or beastmachines optimus prime in your collection.or maybe i just cant see them..

I assume that was directed at me. Optimus Primal and Optimus Prime are two entirely different characters. Having said that, Optimus Prime was technically released in Beast Wars as "Convobat" which is the Basic bat version of Optimus Primal. In Anglophone continuity bat Primal is Optimus Primal, but in Japanese toy continuity Convobat is a different character from Convoy (Optimus Primal) - Convobat's tech specs specifically states that he is an upgrade of Optimus Prime. Likewise Megalligator's (JP crocodile Megatron) tech specs states that he is an upgrade of G1 Megatron. I have CD-ROM Convobat pictured there - he's standing in the middle of Softimus Prime, Alternators Prime, MP Convoy, Grand Convoy and Cybertron Optimus Prime.

I have Basic Optimus Primal vs Megatron as well as regular Convobat vs Megalligator - toywise they're identical. So I personally view them all as Optimus Primal and BW Megatron, but since CD ROM Convobat and Megalligator bear very distinctly different colours, I consider them to be the "true" Beast Wars Optimus Prime and G1 Megatron over their regularly coloured Japanese counterparts.

Pics for comparison
Bat Optimus Primal - Optimus Primal =/= Optimus Prime
Convobat (tech specs art) - same toy as Optimus Primal (bat) but characterwise is Optimus Prime
Convobat (CD ROM) - Optimus Prime (bat Primal repainted in Optimus Prime's colours)
CD ROM vs set (MOSC)

I once wrote a fan-profile for CD ROM Convobat as Beast Wars Hot Rodimus.

i generally only collect autobots but thats just because i have my favorites and they tend to be autobots. cant wait for classic hound with ravage.my 2 favs

Universe/Henkei Hound/Ravage are nice toys. I'm sure you'll like them.
