Motto: "Do a barrel roll!"
Weapon: Railgun
Animated Arcee.

Absolutely brilliant toy, especially for a female transformer (Hasbro often gets them wrong...*Cough*Strika*Cough*)...but damn, did she take a while to find.

I was overjoyed when she finally arrived through the post. So she, with Unicron as a close second, is my (very cute) holy grail.

A factory sealed G1 Headmaster Horrorcon: Snapdragon, would score an 80 when cased and graded. And from what people have said this dude is like rocking-horse shit to get hold of.

Motto: ""uh... Scorponok rocks!!""
Weapon: Automatic Machine Gun
for me its my MIB G1 original Shockwave and AM Thunderwing MISB UKG graded at 75-80% a very rare toy.

I'm so happy with my collection I have mostly boxed know due to cuts etc... I have a Boxed Optimus prime and I might get the Jetwing DOTM Prime if it becomes cheaper at some point.

Aug 11 Birfday and luck of good timing and a couple large sales, I can knock Fort Max off my list. (I get a lousy Fort Max and Ryan gets a Grand Max lol consider me jealous)

Also good timing and Xmas to me, G1 Scorponok and Stunticons are off the list as well as minty fresh Encore Constructicons.(my Xmas was like 1986-87 all over)

I guess now Fire Guts Ginrai(have all other PM Prime variants including Nucleon Quest now),
Overlord I keep hankering for.....................Lot of $$$$ for one dude however and he is not Fort Max/Grand Max size.

Dumb grail that's hard to find at a good price?
Getaway, all I need to complete the full size Head/Targetmaster lines(not including the smaller later versions). Just need him and Powermaster, I have the gun as for some reason I cannot find my original anywhere(one of like 2 I am missing from when I was young)
Watching since episode 1 aired in 84
Reading since #4 released in 84
GM for life.
If it's not G1 it's not canon

Weapon: Front-Mounted Anti-Matter Projector
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!!!
