I know I've seen that first piece. I recognize it from somewhere, but cannot for the life of me recall which figure it comes from. My gut instinct was telling me that it's from one of the Movieverse Starscream toys, but all my searches and viewing images of Movieverse Starscream toys don't bring up any sign of that piece.

If it helps, I have reason to believe it's actually Unicron Trilogy or earlier.

Tank you for being willing to help.

Only a few questions since I already know many of these but...

Is that red truck Alternators Optimus?

Who is that grey sports car next to the red truck?

Who is that black tank in the back?

What are those silver panels in front of that black tank?

And thats it.

Yes, or Binaltech.

Armada Wheeljack, I think, with Minicon

Dunno

Looks like a display stand for one of the 6 inch Tits. If so, the black tank's probably The Fallen.

The black tank is indeed Titanium 6" The Fallen and the gray piece is likely his display stand.

The stand's nameplate has the unique faction symbol they mate for him, so it's more than likely, it's a certainty.

That's right. At first I couldn't make out the blurry insignia in the image, but a closer look shows it to be so.

Yup, it was him sure enough. I got him (and a few others) and took a better pic:

One of the versions of the Classics mold wearing a version of the FansProject 3rd party armor upgrade kit Protector.

I know this comes off the Armada Optimus mold, but is it from the original one or the Powerlix redeco? Both seem to have paint aps I'm lacking on this.

Maybe it's a factory error that forgot to have the pecs painted.

I can't find any version that has the pecs unpainted gray.

I suspected as much. The question is, a factory error on which version?

Another good question. The crystal at the center of your Matrix looks too blue to be the standard Hasbro version of figure, but it also doesn't look blue enough to be the Hasbro Powerlinx version either.

And I can't find pics of the Matrixes from either Takara version or from the Hasbro Kmart version.

The Kmart version is painted, and I believe the Takara version is as well. In fact, EVERY Hasbro version has paint there. I'm stumped.

Every version of that mold has the painted pecs in a different color to the rest of the grill/chest.

Except for the Lucky Draw version which is just Gold Chrome all over.

The paint looks rather thick on that matrix piece. Its possibly a K.O., or a very rare factory error.

Its certainly not from the Costco Exclusive Repaint though. (All Yellow Chest, with black pecks) :-D :-P :DANCE:

Other than that, no way to say what Prime it came off of.

This didn't come in a box of spare parts. This came out of stuff I had packed away, so I know it came off either the original or Powerlinx version of the mold since those are the ones I have, but I guess I won't know which until the other turns up.

Hmm, the piece is too silvery to be either one. Both versions have dull light gray chests. Though it could be the lighting.

Neither version seems to match.

Regular:

Probably the lighting, I'm not a great photographer.

Judging from the color of the Matrix core, it looks like the Powerlinx version. Having the two pictures side-by-side helped, thanks.

Welcome. Yeah looks close enough to Powerlinx.

These fellas got separated from their owners. Any ideas? Likely Films or CHUG from the past six years. Thanks!

The purple guns are from Generations Thunderwing.

The gray gun is from Generations Sergeant Kup.

Ah, I had a feeling it was Kup. But Thunderwing -- never would have remembered that. Thanks!
