-Beast Wars Depth Charge
-2007 Movie Cliffjumper

Depth Charge was a freaking steal at $30. That thing is a piece of art, I love the figure, it's given me the urge to recollect Beast Wars. Cliffy is a nice addition to my 2007 Movie collection

Did you find/buy your 2007 Movie Cliffjumper online or retail store? Bc I saw a few of those AllSpark battles from 2007 Movie at a TJ Max, was wondering if its still possible to find him instore. :???:

Depth Charge is a cool looking figure. I like the bodybuilder proportions it has. It looks like a solid toy. I'd like to get a hold of the Universe redeco of DC.

I got Cliffy at a Vintage toy store in my city, same as Depth Charge. Was for $12, pretty much a steal seeing as that's $3 cheaper than retail, even if it's missing it's left red shoulder pad. I'm pretty sure some places still have the Allspark Battles figures in retail, especially if the retailer is slow at selling toys.

Ah, thanks for reply, didn't realize the figure was loose. I guess I'll search around, I rarely buy loose figs of recent series, only for the old lines. I guess I like the feeling of opening a MISB/MISP. B-)

Animated Bliztwing, it was on clearance and I had a gift card, a pretty cheap acquisition for a triple changer.

I see that you got a new sig, was it bc you got new figs in the pic? Is that Perceptor G1 or reissue?

News Credits: 241 · Sun Sep 13, 2009 8:18 am

Yesterday was a good day:

Animated Longarm (aka Shockwave)
Animated Skywarp
Universe Cyclonus with Nightstick

Both Voyagers were on clearance (50% off!!!) and since they're hard to come by I had to snag them. I'm still waiting for Prime myself

Cyclonus is a very nice surprise, so... perfect! The Top1Toys store busted out new stock and cheap imports: Universe Deluxe wave 4 (G1 Starscream, Cheetor, Cyclonus and Hound) and Movie Screen Battles. The Deluxes were full price, shame, because I would have gotten Cheetor too... why are you looking at me funny?

I just wanted a change in signature. The only "new" figure is Henkei Ligier. Perceptor is G1 original, his joints are so tight they still squeek.

In case anyone isn't sure about what they are:
1. G1 Perceptor
2. Henkei Ligier
3. Crystal Hot Rod
4. Black Hot Rod
5. Music Label Soundwave
6. D-012 Black Convoy

Zombie Depth Charge!

It's an awesome, if strange, redeco, and one of my favorites to come out of Universe (Razorclaw of course being my favorite). Other wins are Frostbite, Blastcharge, Strika, Magna Stampede and Stockade, Fireflight, Whirl. The last three sets are great just to get those fantastic Mini-con redecos.

News Credits: 2 · Sun Sep 13, 2009 11:46 am

Yeah, I love those figures! Frostbite is a sweet mold. I prefer Jawbreaker's red/black/teal colour scheme, though. Magna Stampede is cool too. I recently picked up Battle Unicorn and may have to pick up a Magna Stampede if I can find one. Those minicon redecos are great!

Well over the past week I've picked up:

ROTF Dead End
ROTF Jolt
ROTF Thrust
Bruticus Maximus
Superion (my second one)

Very nice, that Perceptor looks like it was kept in great condition. B-)

I got the RID Car Brothers in a huge lot of RID figures (I put the other figures away because I'm moving soon). I finally found ROTF Arcee at a Walmart an hour away from my city (I was visiting the in-laws). Lastly, I liked the Universe Target Exclusive constructicons SO much that I found a mislabeled auction for another set and won them for 14 bucks!

Alternator Nemesis Prime is in the picture just to up the badassery of the photo. B-)

Nice!

Do you have the repaints of the Car brothers? X-Brawn is awesome with the Rally deco.

Sun Sep 13, 2009 2:14 pm

No, I don't have any of the repaints. I have the repaint of X-Brawn as Ratchet and the Repaint/remold of Sideburn as Roulette and Shadow Striker though. I also have another RID Prowl that I bought a year ago. The seller neglected to tell me it was yellowing though.

Alts NP looks awesome.

RID Car Brothers are pretty classic. :APPLAUSE:

$14 for a Universe Constructicons is pretty cheap, was it loose or MIB?

That was how I got my BotCon Shokoract for $80 shipped. "Shakaroct" indeed.

Holy cow, what a deal! Hmm, now I have to start looking for mislabeled auctions!

They were loose, but they're in excellent condition, all parts, everything. I got the RID Car Brothers, Towline and the plane he was packaged with (forgot the name), RID Stormjet, and Spychangers X-Brawn, Scourge and Magnus all for 20 bucks because the guy had the lot misnamed. I'm the king of searching for mislabeled auctions on Ebay. A few years back, I got a MISB RID Magnus, RID Prime and MISB Cybertron Lugnut for 30 dollars shipped all because the guy didn't know how to spell Omega Prime (I think he listed it as Universe Omage Magnus).

I also just left Target with ROTF Bruticus. I'm a sucker for combiners... :-(
