RID Car Brothers are pretty classic. $14 for a Universe Constructicons is pretty cheap, was it loose or MIB?

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...

nice, I have to start looking out for these misnamed auctions

gratz on the Bruticus.

Good for you. I know you've been wanting him for a while. Did you ever find a weapon for him?

Yeah, Stratosphere had recently arrived at the local WM but since my budget for Transformers has been depleted, I had to just walk right by. My little brother saw me admire it from afar so he picked it up for me.

I haven't found a permanent weapon for him yet. He looks great with U Cyclonus' Nightstick in bot and alt modes. I may use the big cannon weapons that come with GI Joe RoC Cover Girl and/or Breaker/Sgt. Stone as they all seem to look good with Stratosphere. The only problem is that those GI Joe weapons can't peg into 5mm holes so they'll have no place to go in alt mode. I've been going through eBay listings for spare guns to see if I can find something suitable for the figure.

Last haul I got was ROTF Long Haul, 07 Stockade and 07 Wreckage. They are all pretty awesome. Got them off Hasbrotoyshop.com . :mrgreen:

RotF Swerve - I LOVE this mold, easily my fav of the RotF line.

RotF Thrust - Nice repaint, if you skipped the original, this is a nicer version IMO.

RotF Arcee - Much better than the blue one. While I'm still not sold on the design (I think it worked better onscreen than it does in toy form) I figured I'd get the bikes for the (supposed) combined mode.

Legends Skids - Perfectly sized for fighting Devastator. :-)

Nope, I got them through TFieds.com. They're loose but complete except for Swindle's gun. All used just for display. Their joints are super tight, which I love. They're a bit dusty but nothing that one of my spare paint brushes can't handle.

Nice, I hate cleaning dusts though, there's those hard-to-reach places that can't get cleaned w/o taking some parts off.
