That's a Mantenna staction figure from Masters of the Universe.

Crazy-great haul, Fatbot!

That Manenna is awesome too. Too bad that Mattel didn't go ahead with the line as that sculpt could have been articulated.

Amazingly, I actually managed to track down the now 'ultra' rare Henkei figures of Rodimus and Cyclonus! I'm pretty amazed at this turn of events.

Now I have something for the upcoming Protector amour to wear... woot!

Hot Rod = HKD$450 (approx AU$58)
Cyclonus = HKD$299 (approx AU$38.30)

How do you do it dude?
Congrats Heroic, your Protector will look so classy now, that Cyclonus is tempting too!

the beast arms will click into the ankle of the beast legs without hassle, snug and sturdy

Whoa, good trick. Now I'll love my Apeface even more.

I need to get some new stickers but otherwise, minty fresh!

welcome to the Minelba and Go-Shooter club! Well done sir!

Lots of hard work, I kid you not. In many cases, I had to convince shop-owners that they should sell to me because the pieces I'm after are the 'not for sale' type, at first.

Were they in a museum or something?

Congrats Sharky, glad you managed to find the puzzles.

it was alot harder then i thought it would be, they had a lot of damaged boxes one was even opened fully.... then there was the added soundwave bonus....

hahaha... that would be nice, a TF museum.

Actually, they were of the 'permanent display' variaety. Had to convince owners to dig through layers of toys to the display cabinet (just bearing in mind how small and compact and dense a HK toy shop would be) and because they are on display and obviously not priced, we have to there and then negotiated a price with me trying to come up with something so that the owner won't feel I'm trying to have him/her on and buy something he/she would otherwise be able to sell at a higher price... and half way through negotiating they would discover from my Cantonese that I am not native to HK and ask whether I am a 'dealer' from Singapore who will bring it back to Singapore to sell at twice the price (cos that is what people ordinarily do)... and... and... you get the idea.
