Hey everyone! First post here and happy to see people still talking about the 2007 movie line. I currently own the 07 collection from ultimate, premium, ultra, leader, voyager, deluxe, scout, legends, real gear robots, screen battles, and titanium figures. I guess im somewhat of a completionist
dont have the fab or the takara versions of real gear robots (with different pictures than hasbro), if someone has the real gear robots to sell please let me know...
Sad to say, only one thats out the package is the takara premium version of Optimus Prime with the chrome accents. Used for display and I love it! (might be a lil biased as I work in the transportation field, lol)
Tho I dont have too much familarity transforming these figures,
the takara protoforms in blue and orange and the real gear robots are by far my favorite. Love the wonderfest arcee, metallic voyager class figures ratchet, megatron, deep space starscream and robovision prime as well as the battle damaged prime.
The worst figure, (looks wise) and a few may not agree, is the legendary "pink" starscream. overpriced and not really much of an eyecatcher and an example of how repaints can either help or severly hurt a mold. thats just my honest opinion.
I know this is a bit off topic but a few members did mention they had trouble selling their figures. I personally was thinking of selling my entire collection but fear i will only be breaking up the complete set and be left with figures that no one wants.
3 years to complete the set and that tsutaya metallic legends bumblebee i thought i would never own.
I personally think the 2007 line was good for transformers figures in general. It was nice to see ACTUAL licensed vehicles being used to create the figures. And tho i agree, bumbleebee was WAAAAAAAAAY overproduced, repainted etc, you all know everytime you see a yellow chevy camaro on the streets you think of bumblebee!
