The Energon Pub

I've only been collecting since 2013. (Stopped frequently playing with them in 2015)
(Windows 10 is awful so that is why the pictures look bad)
I had problems with the focus on the camera but it looks better then when I first used the camera.

Anyways, please comment on this post and add tips for how I can make this collection better.

There's some good stuff in there! Nothing to ever be ashamed of in terms of what you have in a collection (or what you don't have). ;)^

Images: Are you using a phone camera? Do you have a regular camera?

Toys: Do you have a current focus? Are you after something in particular? Are you up to date with current toy news?

That's still a pretty impressive collection

Camera: Normal windows 10 PC app.
That's the only camera I've got sadly.

Toys: currently trying to get CHUG and G1 related stuff.
And sometimes movie figures.
I try to keep up with news, but I only check once every 2 weeks and I miss stuff sometimes.
Can people get news send to them on email?
That would be great.

Thanks for all the nice comments

UPDATE: getting rid off Beast hunters Abominus and maybe AOE voyager Optimus.

Here is some better quality photos.
(Taken on Youcam)

I also moved things around a bit.

UPDATE: Ok these photos are awful and not better quality. :BANG_HEAD:

You have some awesome figures and a collection to be proud of.

Very nice collection!

Nothing wrong in only having a little bit. I do myself actually.

Thanks guys

Also lemme tell you something, my little bro sharpied a small amount of my TF's. :-x

I removed most of it, but there is still a hint of the sharpie colours. (Mostly on BH Smokescreen)
Apart from that, my collection is almost undamaged.
Some parts may be missing but most are complete.

That would be great.

You can subscribe to threads directly, but that will send you a notification for any sort of response, not just news posts. You can, however, subscribe to the RSS feed if that's your thing!

We also use Facebook and Twitter with the same news stories as the front page, if you find it easier to follow. ;)^

I'm guessing it's a webcam then? I have an innate dislike for Windows products, so I don't actually know what device they use for this sort of stuff.

If you feel you want to take some nice shots of collections and single toys, it might be worth investing even in a cheap camera. There are plenty of people on here that will be happy to help out with suggestions and the such. I personally just use my phone (used to be iPhone 4, have now switched to Fairphone 2 running Android), and I'm ok with the results. This thread can help, too!

As for toys, having an idea for a path is always good, you avoid losing track of what you have, what you want, and it's easier to resist temptation for new shiny things! Any plans on Titans Return or new movie stuff?

Yeah it is a webcam, I'll look into getting a good camera.

I hope to get titan's return stuff but only Galvatron and Blaster interests me at the moment.
Movie stuff I am waiting until next year when :HASBRO:

announces stuff about the toys.

UPDATE: Got 1 titan's figure from Asda.
Also received some old TF's from someone in my family.
So I have about maybe in my collection 60?
