YES!
You know what though? I didn't collect Micromasters (much regret). As a matter of fact my bro only had a smattering of Headmasters that I played with. We had Highbrow, Skullcruncher, Wierdwolf, and Snap Dragon. those guys got a lot of love.

Micromasters!! I have a SEALED G1 team set, and the rest are in that lunch box on the lower right of this picture!!

G1 Highbrow is somewhere in that shot too..

On the left side is Freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeway.

Those 3 are the only Micromasters I have. They came in a giant haul of G1 toys that was given to me many years ago. Looks like we have, Nightflight, Tailwind, and Whisper. 3 of 4 of the Airstrike Patrol. I wonder where Storm Cloud went? I've always assumed these guys were Cons. Can anybody confirm or deny that?

That too

I think I have most of the Patrols from the first wave of Micromasters. And I really enjoyed that Micromasters series by DreamWave. I may have to dig that out and re-read it!

You know what I do need? The product catalog from either '89 or '90. I have '84-'88, can't remember if it's '89 with the Pretenders and Micromasters or the '90 with the Action Masters and Micromasters.

They are nice basic figures. Sturdy too!

Well those guys look like fun nuggets of joy. A dangerous rabbit hole indeed.

Yes! the MM's with bases/vehicles! That's what these TM's are bringing me back to. I had like three or four of these. Including ERECTOR :lol:

After looking at the catalog Cram posted, I know how he feels. :lol:

Erector is that dude!! Pretty sure I had two, now only one.

So, if we enhance the image I posted earlier, it looks like I have Autobots Overload and Erector and Decepticon Flattop for the transports and Decepticon Grease Pit for the Stations.

I need more.

Catching up:

Happy belated birthday N!! Hope it was a good one!!

Bluestreak is awesome and I will take 20 in all the flavors you got.

Titans have returned in force and the fact that you have all the titan masters is awesome. Brawn looks pretty neat on Hardhead

Finally got some Autobot sigals from Repro Labels. As well as some other sets.
Time to give Bluestreak and the brothers the proper photo treatment.

You did really good Cobs! The trio looks fantastic!

News Credits: 41 · by **Cobotron** » Sun Aug 07, 2016 10:25 am

Thanks fellers.

Man! Repro Labels are the bomb.com! All three of those guys went from pretty cool to AWESOME. Instantly.
Especially Optimus. Especially his alt mode. The OP set fixed all the things that bugged me about that toy. Most notably the grey bits in truck mode around the side windows, and the lack of detail in torso mode.
I'm hooked on Repros.

Good job Cobotron! Bluestreak looks great. Those Reprolabels do look nice on the other three as well.

I noticed you didn't put the red stickers on the light bar above the front windows on Optimus' cab. Any reason? I think I didn't put on the Elite Guard-esque ones in bot mode on his shoulders. That set made him a much better figure. Still waiting for the 3rd Party kits or he is getting sold!!
