I use to collect the G1's in the 80's and had amassed a collection of about 40 of them. Gave them all away to a friend's lil brother. Started collecting them again with my 12 year old son so that we could share the hobby. He has many more than I do. Pics are 240X401 To be forum size friendly. Here they are:

DARK OF THE MOON- Mechtech:

Optimus Prime and Bumble Bee

Decepticons (Unknown series)

Unidentified plane. Could be Starscream, Skywarp, or Thundercracker. Given to me by my son. He broke the two upper rear wings off, so I swung the lower rear wings up. Can't confirm identity. maybe one of you knows?

A Tank version of Megatron? Can't confirm series or identity. Maybe one of you knows? Given to me by my son.

Armada Megatron

I hope you have a lot of fun collecting and that you get a ton of figures. It's a very satisfying hobby.

Thank you. I knew one of you would have the answers to the unidentified Decepticons that my son gave me. Now I'll have to get Thundercracker, Skywarp and Starscream to complete the jet portion of my collection. :-)

I'm totally back into it and fully intend to continue collection Transformers Action Figures without stopping again. :-)

No problem. The Megatron figure also came with a Mini-Con called Leader-1, who was ironically named after the heroic Go-Bot leader.

I noticed that the mini con was missing as I just looked for some more info on the Armada Megatron. The missiles and the two head pieces are missing too. Well, not missing. My son has them. Thanks. :-)

No problem. Let's hope he didn't lose them. I wasn't always good at keeping track of weapons and accessories when I was young.

Picked up the WalMart Exclusive Side Swipe in the new blue and yellow paint scheme with two pistols

With Voyager OP and Deluxe Mechtech Bumble Bee (Barricade and Crank Case are in the background). I added the sword to Side Swipe since This version of him didn't come with a sword (Cybertanium sword?). May paint the Sword Blue to match Side Swipe's paint scheme more than the original black color.

Another pic of Armada Megatron and ROTF Ramjet

I completely forgot about Unicron and Beast Wars Megatron

Crank case and Barricade think they are going to sneak up on the Autobot's secret meeting...

"We're going to sneak up on these Autobot fools and turn them into scrap metal.."

But the Autobots are expecting them...

"Get ready to move on my mark... 3...2...."

"We've got the drop on them. OPEN FIRE!!"

"1... OPEN FIRE!!"

To be continued....
