You can say that again, brother!
The most absurd thing is even if money is no object, one must be able to find the damn thing.

It would be nice if he turned up as a future Encore figure. Even if parts are missing from the mold, we've seen them rebuild parts in Encore before (just look at Super Fire Convoy).

Now THAT would be an Encore I could get behind. Furthermore, it would never remove any value from the original. Especially if instead of stickers, they would apply tampographs.

I have a funky request for a list. Can you do a top 5 transformers that you can take in the bath? My son always wants to play with them when he takes a bath, but for obvious reasons, can't take them in. I'm not looking for the best water themed transformers. I'm looking for the best that can be played with inside water without rusting or anything.

Do they have to actually transform?

If they did that would be great. But I really don't even know if there is a very big selection of actual transforming toys made to be water friendly. Personally I can't think of any. But if there aren't actual transforming ones, or if there aren't enough to make a good list, then I would say it's not a must.

How about i just tell you now which ones your son can bring with him?

There are some that work very well as bath toys but they are on the very young side:

If thats too young then your best bet are the mcdonalds Beast Machine toys. They get the job done, look the part, and transform.
