I've already bout all the ones I've wanted except one: Botcon Japan 1998 Double Punch - a red repaint of Beast Wars Scorponok.

I've been on the lookout for 4 years and have yet to come across one which goes for a decent price.

2007's Dreadwind
1996's Onyx Primal

06 Laserbeak. My first Botcon and I just really didn't plan funds appropriately and didn't get/couldn't afford the add-on. I've gotten Buzzsaw since then, this guy continues to elude me though. I'm also missing 05 Ratchet but I simply don't care about him at all. For the time it was a cool stand in and figure. Ratchet has been (Henkei) and is being done better (Igear) now.

2005 Flareup
2005 Flamewar

I keep on looking for these on Ebay. I don't know why. I always just get pictures of Raquel Welsh and flameware cookery. The few times I've actually seen them they're well over a hundred bucks. Someday I'll just give in and start selling organs or rent out my womb to pay for my plastic addiction.

I won Flareup at Bingo at this past Botcon. I won Flamewar on ebay for $113 and change a couple months ago. That's a steal for her anymore.

Roulette, Shadow Striker, Arcee, Elita-1

I have managed over the years to get all of my "ones." Deathsaurus, Megazarak, managed to get the whole '07 set from various people (many of them on this board) within days of the con itself, the Wings of Honor set (since sold off), Alpha Trion & Vector Sigma, Razorclaw & Elita One. It's sad that now all I want are the whole sets themselves. I want the G2 set. Hell, I want an entire G2 display! I'd give a kidney (someone elses preferably) for the Stunticon Job set but most of the extra figures I don't care about. But if I had to narrow it down to one, I'd probably have to pick Sky Byte. And the Sharkticons. 'Cuz I'm greedy.

SG Starscream

I still need the 2005 Ratchet.

I just haven't pursued it yet. It's just a matter of time since the Universe/Henkei one kind of killed the desire for him.

Rage. Incalcuable Rage. It's really not fair that so many of the chickbots that I wanna collect are expensive exclusives.

I mean the customization class Minerva spurred me into a full on Darth Vader big 'NOooooOOOOO!' meltdown during Botcon this year.

It's like being told unicorns exist, and cure cancer the commmon cold and mild to moderate acne, but that you can never have one because you forgot to sign up for your horse-customizing class.

2004 G2 Breakdown. I'd love to be able to complete my G2 combiner team collection someday... when I become a millionaire, at any rate :\

I also won a 3 pack of Sweeps and traded one for a sealed Botcon 06 Buzzsaw 100% complete. One... Ha!

I have a lot, because I'm poor and can never afford them. I forget the years too. But:

Sharkticon
Kup
Ratchet & Ironhide (not top priority)
Sunstreaker & Sideswipe (ditto)
Scourge (sure, why not?)

'06 and '08 have murdered me.

Also, Antagony.

Shattered Glass Megatron and Animated Drag Strip are two I'd love to have my hands on. Luckily the KO versions of SG Optimus and Rodimus worked so well after some modifying and kitbashing that I never needed to hunt their originals down...

Astrptrain (Almost had him on Ebay for 30euros this summer minus his minicons and shield but my modem glitched at the last minute. Arrrgh!)

Double Punch (Energon Scorponok repaint)

Dreadwind

Banzai-tron

Thunderclash

I did finally buy Leozack and Skyquake a few months ago.
