Long time, no post. I thought I'd reintroduce myself by posting some pics of my collection. Most of these pics are old, and my collection has changed quite a bit recently (super close to completing the entire G1 run now), but it should give you an idea of most of what I have in my Man-cave.

Some of the pieces I'm more proud of that you can picture hunt for are Grandus, Grand Maximus, and Road Caesar. Still looking for a Liokaiser to add to my collection, however!

Wow! Grand Max, Fort Max AND Brave Max!!! =P~

Awesome collection man, I'm envious of a lot of your pieces. Makes me want to get more G1 figures! Just out of curiosity, where did you get those clear plastic cases that you store your deluxes in? I just won an Ebay auction for Hybrid Style Convoy and Black Convoy. The seller is including dust free cases that look almost exactly like that.

Thanks for the kind words. You can get those cases at places like Hobby Lobby or even Amazon. The big ones that fit deluxe size bots run around $25-30. And there are smaller ones like I have below (which sideways will hold Pretenders or basic sized bots right side up) which come in 2-packs for around $15-20.

Awesome collection dude, wow. One of the best display's I've ever seen pictures of. :APPLAUSE: Love the Max's. Oddly enough, it's your "classics" minibots and legends I'm jealous of. I have a complete classics collection minus those 2 damn legends 5 packs and the Henkei minibots! Anyways, gorgeous display with the plastic cases for so many, absolutely beautiful.

Question. I have seen that Grand Maximus has another minion type figure with him. He looks like a Pretender. Who is he and whats the deal with him? I've debated on whether or not to pull the trigger on a Grand Max and wasn't sure if that not-cerebros/cog character was suppose to be included or not. Please sir, enlighten me.

Yes, it's a Pretender shell for Cerebros.

Thanks, everyone. I actually need to get updated pics here soon, as my collection has changed quite a bit in the time since those were taken.

Over winter break I rearranged quite a bit of stuff. Here's most of what's in my display cases at least. I realize some things don't necessarily go together, but honestly I'd need probably 2 or 3 of everything I own to really display each group how I wanted.

Thanks a lot, I appreciate the feedback on it.

Those glass cases are the Ikea Detolf cases. If you have an Ikea near you, they're only $60 apiece. Pretty nice little display cases, thought they aren't adjustable.
