The day I got this guy I was all smiles, my roommate at the time didn't quite get it.
I had been looking for one and he seems to pop up on ebay every now and then, but I never wanted to drop the cash on it, but one day I decided to end the inner turmoil and go for it. Not sure what it is about the Armada Prime mold in the clear plastics, but I was mesmerized from the moment I saw it.
Other grails I have added to my collection are sealed G2 Go-Bots Optimus Prime and Megatron.
e-hobby Ghost and Black Starscreams, ok technically I bought them when originally released, but they were the first major Transformers purchase I had made when I started to collect Transformers, I've often thought about having them slabbed.
The Cybertron Sky Terror sword team was much harder for me to get at a reasonable price and took several years. I had had the Sunstorm piece for a while and always came up short on Thrust and Ramjet. Missing them on the bargain table at Dairycon I was a little sad for the rest of the day. One day I managed to find both of them still sealed up and bought them. It was like getting one step closer to finishing in impossible puzzle(if that makes any sense).
My number one that I own is Superlink Megazarak. Always eluding me on the secondary market and next to impossible at times to find even on ebay. I scored him when someone basically listed him poorly on the ol' ebay. Bringing him home he completes my Energon Scorponok display.
Number one grail for me to get will be a G1 Black Zarak. My brother tells me every year he 's gonna get me one for my Birthday or x-mas, only to raise my hopes so he can squash them and laugh at me when I don't get one. I must own this toy!!!
