    Default "I've made a huge mistake"

    I think Gob summed it up nicely.

    "I've made a huge mistake"

    ever felt like you made a stupid choice with your TFs? Figures you passed on at retail? (Bludgeon? Thunderwing?) Or in my case sold.

    No doubt my fellow Ozformers remember I sold most of my collection on the old boards, Cybertron, Armada, Movie figs all went to good homes and I have no regrets about those, but why, oh why! did I sell my Beast Wars figures? Beast Wars is the best, I love transformers, I love animals! Put them together and something special was made.

    Now my esteemed Ozformers friends should I jump back in? Get back into the Beast Wars again? Or cut my losses and run?

    Has anyone else made a huge mistake?

    Sorry to hear about that Gutsman, we all make crap decisions or have had crap forced upon to make us decide on something that we regret later so I sympathize.

    It's not hard to get back onto Beast Wars as many figures are still selling for decent prices and the Japanese have released several high quality releases in recent times.

    The only hard ones to find are:
    - Original Ratrap
    - BW Grimlock
    - X9 Ravage
    - Megatron Dragon (it was hard back then due to scalpers but I think Transfigures now stock him)
    - Optimal Optimus (hard to find in good condition)

    Beast Wars is my favourite line, most are at reasonable prices as Kup said so if you start off slowly just getting your favourites you may find it's not to painful on the pocket. You just need to make sure you always have some spare cash for emergencies.

    Yeah, Beast Wars is still quite inexpensive to collect, so I would definitely recommend grabbing them now before roller's generation starts making more disposable income and the price/demand for them may increase.

    Roller with disposable income? Definitely to be avoided d:

    $10 Cyclonus, Starscream, Ramjet. Nah I won't buy any of those. D'oh!
