The one figure that has always eluded you!!
Has there ever been a figure that you just cant obtain? The figure that constanly eludes me is Lio Convoy!! No matter what I do I just cant get it. Every time I try to bid of this figure I either loose my bid or just cant Find it. Do you have a figure that eludes you.

Scorponok. Everytime I have the money for it, I only seem to be able to find them jacked-up or incomplete.

This might sound, well, I guess the closest word I;ve got is "quaint"...
Classics Jetfire.
Maybe it's partly due to my reluctance to order online, maybe not... I've checked around online sotres. Hasbrotoyshop hasn't got him listed and he's sold out other places too... Either way, I've been lookin' since December, no luck.
I'd imagine I'd have a more interesting grail if I collected older figures, but I tend not to go back. I'm too busy trying to keep up with current releases!

Springer and Gnaw.
Generally when I see them nice and complete I either don't have the money or forget about the auction.

Dai Atlas KO. He was all over the place back when I was poor. Now that I have a little money, he's no where to be found.

Hmm. G1 Doublecross. Probably one of the only G1 Figures I'm interested in, and if he's in stock at BBTS I usually don't have the money. I then get said money, and someone's already snatched him up. D'oh.
EDIT: it never fails... I check BBTS today and the Doublecross they had a week ago is gone. Raaaaaargh, foiled again!

The white version of Binaltech Meister! I got the red version ages ago thinking it would be rarer and I should get it first, but now I can't get the white one anywhere! And I wants it! I don't really want to pay masterpiece money for it though (which is what someone is doing on ebay atm!)!!

How much did it wind up setting you back? I'm... hesitant to pay extra on top of the shipping fees, but since I really don't have a choice...
There's a story here, but it's kind of silly. Let's just say there's an emotional connection here, and it has NOTHING to do with the character.
