Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

Motto: "They wanna play my emotions, but I'm like the ocean-- too calm to get upset by somebody's notion."
Weapon: Concussion Blaster Gun
08 Bumble
Leader Prime
Ironhide
(I've yet to see any of these)

Blackout (the only one I've ever seen I bought!!)

Hmmmm... When I went to correct my spelling in that last post, it ended up not showing up at all in this post...
Weird...

08 BB easy!

A member Tommy Tek sent me one(free) but I didn't wanna open it. So sure enough I payed $30 for one on ebay then found it a week later at TRU :sad:

So now I have 2 sealed(one's gonna be sold) and one to enjoy.

Weapon: Armor Axe
Ironhide here.
Never turned up in the local stores here in Bremen, Germany (or it was always gone whenever I checked - which was frequently!).
I finally got my Ironhide figure from a store in Denmark while on vacation just last week.
Currently looking for:
- the projectile for Cybertron Supreme Class Starscream's arm cannon
- a gun barrel for Classics Jetfire's (the little black thingy that plugs onto the front of his swing-out shoulder cannons)
- the rotor for Micromaster Tracer (from the Military Patrol)

If you have one of the above and want to part with it, please PM me!

No real problems in my area.

Oh, we had the drought that everyone experienced, but when that was over all the 2nd wave stuff was readily available.

Leader prime is a bit tough to find right now, but I got mine early when he was plentiful.
For Sale:
Classics Magnus/Skywarp 2 pack MIB
Classics Devastator MIP
HA Sideswipe K-Mart exclusive color Loose

Currently looking for:
ROTF Target exclusive Sideswipe from the 2-pack
TFCC Punch/Counterpunch
Alternity Primes, silver & white versions
(opened is OK, to be used for customs)

PM If interested

For me...

Ironhide and Starscream were easy. They were the very first ones i got hold of.

Leader Prime, Ratchet, and most of the others are easy too. Ordered them before the movie came out.

Concept Camaro BB was a bit tricky. But didn't take long.

All of these mentioned above were all bought at Hasbro suggested prices or lower.

The hardest were Leader Brawl and Longarm. Had to grab them at an expensive $52 and $18!

I just bought longarm, so he is no longer hard to find.
Barricade is non-existant in my area. I go to walmart all the time, and he is always the first one gone. I'm gonna have to go to amazon and pay extra for him.

All of the movie Transformers were rare where I live at one time or another. It took a long while to get anything in. Then the shelves were stripped fast. Some of the notable ones that only appeared once are

Concept Bumblebee
Classic Bumblebee
Rescue Ratchet
Jazz
Leader Prime
Voyager Prime

The ones that were only here a few times were

Starscream
Thundercracker
Arcee
Recon (Mall Security) Barricade
Blackout
