Autobots or Decepticons?

Postby Slumble B » Sun Aug 19, 2007 10:23 pm

Do you collect more Autobots or Decepticons? How is the ratio of your collection?

I tend to collect more Autos because I guess I just like the good guys and the car oriented alt mode rather than the destructive alt modes of the Decepticons.

My Decepticon collection was only Hardtop and Wreckage until I more than tripled it with Devestator. Very cool and he is definitely bringing some power to my Decepticon army. They might have the advantage until Prime comes in the mail later this week.

I believe I have 6 Autobots, so I guess both sides are about even.

What about you guys?

Weapon: Sword
A little of this, a little of that. Mix in some Predacons and Maximals with the Bots and Cons. Oh, did you want a number? I don't know. I have a lot. I last counted at three hundred or so and that was a few years and more than half a collection ago.


I do, however, currently have Voltron at battle with Bruticus while the Silver Surfer watches from a distance. Diaclone size Spike and Sparkplug are just trying to stay out of the way. :-?

wow up until now I had no idea just how even my collection was for each side. Although I'd say with predaking and devastator in the Decepticon lineup Superion gets Pwned and the autobots transform and roll a fat one.

Autobots... Decepticons in the movie line are wacked out in terms of scale and mold. As opposed to Arcee, Bumblebee, Ironhide, Ratchet and Leader Prime who make a great display group.

I've tried to keep the ratio pretty close, but sometimes when you get things as they're available (at least this is my experience), it's easier to get Decepticons...so they outnumber my autobots by 2 or 3 at present.

pfffffffft, like that stops the Autobots from kicking ass. Decepticons fly so they can escape faster after they get busted up by the Autos.
