Seibertron.com member madfantasyskills has found an interesting auction on e-bay.
E-Bay seller craigenstein is currently selling 10 giant custom made tech spec compilations (4ft.x1ft!), collecting the specs of all G1 Autobots and Decepticons produced between 1984 and 1987 and showing the sides average specs.

An accurate ranking of all Transformers down to the decimal point!

Finally! A comprehensive look at one of our favorite parts of Transformers, the Tech Specs! This 4 foot by 1 foot laminated tech spec, shows the average strength, intelligence, speed, endurance, rank, courage, firepower, and skill of the autobots (red line) and decepticons (purple line). The red background behind the graph lines, consists of every transformers individual ranking for each category in 9 pt. text. In place of the usual bio. - I have added together each transformers total points for an accurate individual power ranking down to the decimal point. On the left is the two factions logo's placed on an outer space backdrop.

Most of us have always rounded up or down when the graph line doesn’t quite reach an exact number. What I’ve done, is zoomed in on every tech using photoshop. When you take where the very center of the graph line crosses the very center of the vertical category line, you get a very different picture then we all previously thought. I have found that there isn't a single tech that shows every catagory as an exact number. For example, many of the rankings we see as 10's usually turn out to be more like a 9.9 or 9.8 This in my opinion is the truest look at our hobby and their power. After all, we are talking about high tech robots here, why wouldn't you want a more precise number??

In one glance you can see who is smarter than who, who is the strongest transformer of them all, and so forth. Who knew that Wheeljack was the 6th most powerful autobot ever?!!! A few highlights I’ve noticed are things such as Cliffjumper and Bumblebee (Bumblejumper) have the exact same ranking, even down to decimal points! Same with First Aid and Ratchet, Apeface and Snapdragon, there are many more fun facts that are easier than ever to pick out!! In this closer examination of tech specs, we find that what we thought may not be correct and that there is truly more than meets the eye here.

The perfect compliment to your transformers collection!!!

Oh what the heck. Why not? I went ahead and bought one albeit the price may be a bit steep. I'm curious enough (and bored enough) to grab one.

I just checked out the tech on ebay again and decided to check on large format printing. This thing is 4 feet long. I didn't find anywhere that prints that size for less than $40. I'm not sure how he is making any money even at $60. Ebay takes 10% and paypal takes some as well. He sent me an email of a more detail picture, it's not just a poster, it's laminated as well. I'm getting one!!!!!!

I'd be more inclined to get this if shipping were free and/or built into the price. From what the last poster said, he is charging a fair price, but $50 seems like a nice round # to me.
