While i dont mind buying something from the newer lines, which has been limited but I was able to score the Ark at my local Target about a month ago. I’ve been mainly concentrated on finding those missing accessories (Cyber keys, weapons, etc.) from various lines. My recent finds come from the Cybertron line.
I truly dont know how long Ive had Scourge and Override but between them, I was missing the tail and Cyber Key for Scourge and the Cyber Key for Override. I will say its been at least 4 years or so but between that and not really looking for those items somewhat explains the time why I haven’t tried to obtain these pieces. Well, when you decide to start looking, it can be difficult as well. In the past two weeks, i was able to find the tail for Scourge and the key for Override. Definitely a big win, but still need the key for Scourge.
A recent addition altogether was Thunderblast. This is one seems to be really hard to find and at a decent price. I was able to buy her for a decent price but she was missing both missiles. I honestly didn’t think i would find them for quite some time but got lucky and found them. They just arrived today, so a big win for completing Thunderblast.
I would say patience is necessary and if you got the time to keep researching or looking through pages on Ebay it might pay off or wherever you can find them. Now one particular piece that is missing from Cybertron Menasor, his minicon; Heavy Load. Goes back to what’ve Ive said before about collecting. Ensure you know what came with a particular character. When i bought him when i was in Germany, I didn’t pay any attention and just bought him. I have been able to buy the Cyber Key for him but the hunt is ongoing for Heavy Load.
Searching for missing items can be frustrating but gives you another perspective about collecting, especially stuff from the older lines.
Lastly, while readjusting some shelves, I decided to transform my Classic and United Megatron back to their weapon mode and hang them above the one display case. Not too bad I think. Sadly, that was the first time I have transformers them.
As always, thank you for looking, stay safe,
