I haven't got much lately .

Here is an update of my collection . I have recently sold half of my classics to help start funding my MP collection and other figures .

What i have left is the few i couldn't part with , i'm still adding to my classics but having sold what i did means i can focus on only buying select pieces in the future.

DECEPTICONS - Almost finished the Wallpaper .







AUTOBOTS - In desperate need of wall paper and a dust

I love you collecting rules:

"does it transform? Yes... BOUGHT!"

I'm surprised you dont have a picture of these in there.

I love those transformers crisps only 15p at BNM

Ha . Yeah i have a bit of every thing but only select pieces when it come to the likes of beast wars PPC and G1 .

Probably in the minority here but i will/have bought everything from the movie lines to date .

i could easily get sucked in to beast wars but i have to use some restraint far too many to get started down that road .

Thankfully The generations line is filling that need very slowly , i just bought Rhinox in the Kapow sale .

Nice to see a fellow Brit on here, have thought about using Kapow recently, as there prices seem pretty good, would you recommend them?

Kapow is excellent mate . The only thing is you have to pay up front for there pre orders but there early bird prices are spot on .

Just recently though there are a couple of items you can put a small deposit down for like MP UM i thinks it's only £16.50 then payments not due until nearer the date of release .

It's only £3.50 p&p on any item and item/s over £100 is free p&p

Delivery has been super quick when i have purchased on the EB offer and instock items have took no longer than a couple of days .

Update of my collecting habits

Glad you had a good experience LL Ever since we used Omegalock i keep poping over there and found them to be just as good and nearly always a couple of quid cheaper which always helps out

Masterpiece ONLY is my rule now no more classics generations offical or 3rdp no more tv show lines or movie this is the last stop .

I will still be buying 3rdp Warbotron sized combiners .

Heres my collection so far















Newest decepticon a little pricey but well worth it and his waist is secure unlike SS .



Finally got round to buying exgraver and completed Herc at last it only took a year haha .

Yeah Omegalock are great too, recently got Takara Jetfire off them, they seemed to have him in before Kapow. Interesting that you've made the switch from CHUG to MP, I've toyed with that idea for a while now, but I just can't bring myself to get rid of of some of the great figures in the CHUG line. Do you have any regrets in switching focus?

I didnt buy into them untill late last year , as i was a CHUG guy but once i saw MP WJ i was ready to make the move , i already had Grimlock SW and SS as stand alone pieces but once i got WJ i quickly bought the rest of the autobot cars and relised these are outstanding and theres nothing else i needed to collect everythings scaled and toon/toy accurate .

Ill still be buying third party MP and combiners , CW just can't fit in with the mp .

I like looking at this thread.

Carry on.

I'm sure if I were ever to buy a MP figure I would probably take the same route, TBH for me MP is a few fugures shot of being a must buy line, now if Jazz and Megs were to ever get released then I may just bite. Keep up the good work, great photos.
