Weapon: Rocket Launcher
Speaking of basics, I forgot about my favorite basic Fuzor, Terragator! I've heard that some people's have a loose right shoulder, but mine's super solid, and this is one of my favorites from when I was a kid. Beast Machines Night Viper is pretty great as well, since he doesn't have any of that BM awkwardness that most of the Maximal toys have. He looks perfectly comfortable displayed with transmetals.

Sky shadow is another interesting fuzor if you like dragon flies and/or lizards.

Look into one version or another of Cybershark, I'd suggest. His first mold doesn't exactly scream "Maximal" but he's pretty cool, and his Transmetal 2 mold got repainted into RiD Sky-Byte. The latter is a little kibbly, but it really does look great. I like dogs, so K-9 is another of my favorite BW deluxes; he even has a hollow 5mm peg on the back of his shield, if you want to give him a minicon. :P

Actually Skybyte was my second transformer I ever owned. And still I always keep him on my shelf. And I have been looking for cybershark and his remolds for a while because if I get one I will want the rest later on.

I actually just bought both colorations of TM2 prowl this morning.

I don't have much Beast Wars figures. Still, I strongly reccomend these two:


BEAST MACHINE BLACKARCHNIA:

Image
If myou have to get a Blackarachnia, this is the one to get. She's hot and sexy in both modes. Also, she's the most womanly looking TF ever. She's also very easy to come by and very cheap.




BEAST WAR INJECTOR:
Image
Many people hate him. He even was a big shelfwarmer at the time. Still, I like that horrible blend of fish and bug. Also, that bug head coming out of that fish head? Probably inspired by real life.

I'll second Claw Jaw and Cybershark (the first version of Cybershark, although the remolds do look pretty nice) . Actually, most aquatic BW toys were at least decent, but those two are really nicely coloured, very poseable and look good in both modes.
assembling a Neo-G1/TF:TM cast. Please PM if you have (or know of) the following at a reasonable price: Classics or Henkei Prowl, Astrotrain, Ramjet, Skywarp, Sunstreaker, Sideswipe, Blurr, Perceptor, GDO Wheelie and Springer, or 3rd Party Motobot Arcee, FP Springer, iGear Ratchet and Ironhide, City Commander (and/or Ultra Magnus), Starscream (deluxe) Coronation add-on, or Spike and Daniel in their Exo-Suits.

Gonna Second Terrorgator's awesomeness. Love the figure, reminds me of a big game hunter with his double barreled shotgun.

Also, I forgot Universe Frostbite! Instead of retelling why I like it, here's an in depth review I wrote a few years back:

Actually the Universe 2.0 Dinobot is one I really want but the after market is insane. If its out of the box its alot lower than the $40 - $120 people want for it, but all of those sell instantly.


What has the world come to! Last I checked he was a huge shelfwarmer, In box fetches around $25ish US at the most... Henkei one still lingers for like $30- $45...

And what a pair it is. In fact, it's accurate to the actual Tanooki ;)
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!
