The Energon Pub

Super excited for this haul, Greatshot has been the bot I have been looking forward to!



Been waiting on Greatshot for almost 3 months now since he was running late and then I shipped the previous stack minutes before he came in stock!

Got a Real Barry this time, and I'm super thrilled. Got him on the TFsource Memorial day sale too, $80! retail price score!

And finally, have some Cogman from work:

Legends Greatshot? I thought that was a myth??!

Nope he real!!!

And he is soooooooooooooooo goooooooooooooooooooood. Easily the favorite of my 3 6-changers, and a really awesome looking and functioning figure! I love Rhino mode, and the chest in robot mode kills me with its coolness

Yeah, the remolded chest and head on Great Shot are .... well.... GREAT!

I love the brand new helmet too. It is gorgeous! and I love the spikes, even if now I am required to remove the head for transformation. But he is gorgeous!!!!!!!

There is one thing I don't like about him. His new chest fins can't fold away like the 'Shots before him. Other than that, virtually all his remolds are to die for

I don't mind the chest flaps at all, they are lovely and large!!!




Also, look what I got!!!!! Nick Roche signed copy of Requiem of the Wreckers!!! Now I gotta get a frame for it!!!

I put Greatshot in all 6 modes at work today. Gosh he is pretty. I love winged Rhino-cat mode the most of his 5 alts, with the jet mode my 2nd favorite

Flying rhino is dope!

So, do you have all 3 6-changers, D?

And now all I need is a Sixknight and I will have the full set!

So I went to a car parts swap meet with my Daddio today for Father's day, had a blast! Got me some new rims for my cat at $80 total, can't beat that!

Also found these guys below. Blurr and Tankor are missing their guns, and Prime is missing his missiles and meat cleaver, and the back needs some work. But I got them all for $6 along with Yoda and War Machine, so I'm happy! And then found the wave 2 Prime Masters on the way home, leaving only the deluxes!

Also at the swap meet, I saw this Iron Man being used as a hood lifter, an 86 Monte Carlo that I so badly want, and then at Target this toy shelf that is so confused on what it is trying to sell

Got some new shots for ya today!

Up first, Blackout from yesterday as deskbot!



secondly, Drift as today's deskbot. Love me some light piping



That first pose was him trying to replicate Obi-Wan's pose he used while fighting Grievous in RotS and he used it multiple times in clone wars and once in Rebels too.

Next, my updated Masterpiece shelf now that MPM5 has officially arrived.


And now having all these guys, I wanted to rank my MPs so far by favorites:
1) Artfire
2) SG Prime
3) Barricade
4) Sideswipe
5) Bumblebee
6) Hot Rodimus
7) movie Optimus Prime

The top 5 were kinda hard to place in order, 6 and 7 were pretty easy.

And finally, check out this badass thing:




GF said absolutely not

Dump her

*jk*

Hooray Drift deskbot!! He's one of my favorites to bring in. He's just all around fun.

Also, hooray MP Lambor for making the top 4!! I knew he could do it.

And, how is Blackout? I've contemplated getting old 4500X (they said that so many times in reference to him in the Movie, I just watched it again last night)!!

He was quite fun! I enjoy playing around with the swords, thanks again Shajaki for the Great sword! I still owe ya a beer buddy

He may be slightly limited in articulation, but man he is good. And he is so bish-bash-bosh for a MP guy too, makes it fun to play with him!

He's pretty swell! He definitely has a touch of the old RotF days when transformations were difficult but he pulls off both modes perfectly. Articulation is a bit limited, but he's still a blast!

As for the past 2 days? I took my Battle bros with me, and they had a lot of fun!

And finally, all together now!

After living here for over 3 months, and finally after doing a good cleaning over the course of a week and a half of moving stuff around, I am finally 100% happy with how my collection stands.

Ready to take a look?

A few things to note:

COBOTRON: ALL 3 SIXCHANGERS TOGETHER!!!

the "Generations" con shelf includes several non-generations characters in it, see if you can find all the intruders!

The Wreckers shelf also has a few intruders.

Main movie shelf has 1 of every bot character from the 5 movies minus Jazz (SS figure will go here, Final battle version is in alt mode in a different shelf), Dinobots and knights (dedicated shelf, and SS Grimlock is special) and the Arcees, cause shite.

Also, Blackout went up top cause he and TC are too good to be crammed into the con movie shelf. I will figure that out a bit more once I get Megs and Brawl, maybe I'll do an "evolution of Megatron" shelf or something.

Defensor stands apart from the rest of the scramble combiners because of the fact that he is my favorite.

Metroplex and Devastator are big and solid enough to stand on the floor, and where they ended up works perfectly to me.

On to the pictures!

I don't pack any away, they are all displayed. I don't want to ever have to pack some up in boxes for storage, to me, that defeats the point of my collection.

The one standout right though is that huge Beast Hunter Prime. I am planning to make him a custom (first one minus some sharpie) but still haven't planned him out yet

Looks GREAT D!

Cobotron wrote:Looks GREAT D!

It was actually thanks to your mention of the 3 six-changers that they all ended up shelved together! And they are really good together too!

Seriously. Awesome. Stuff!!

I used to display like that. Brings back fond memories.

Picked up this guy today. I have to say, he is an improvement over Hot Spot. Feels more solid, alt mode tabs in good and all the wheels roll. I'm digging him.

Also means I am now finished with my PotP voyager hunt. Now it's a leader, a legend, some prime masters, and a lot of deluxes and exclusives
