I tried ebay for the first time last fall, but I had it strongly recommended to me that I finally give trading on the forums a shot. I think I considered it sometime over 10 years ago but was kind of scared off of it, but here goes. Please note that I could potentially be a bit slow shipping because I don't have a car on weekdays. I tried taking things to the post office on foot once, but it was a 45min walk, and involved crossing an 8 lane interstate highway by way of a heavily used underpass without a sidewalk. I'm not doing that again!

Higher quality figures. None of these figures have ever 'lived' in a home with a smoker or a pet larger than a hamster. I collected all of these since finishing undergrad, and because life doesn't always go the way you want, none of them have ever been played with by children.

I also have matching trading cards for some of these manuals listed on Ebay.

On my want list, I can't afford new prices, so I'm willing to accept a little wear and a few missing accessories, but I'd want anything I trade for to be unbroken with all parts and vital accessories. (By "vital accessories" I mean things essential to their design like combiner hands and feet.)
Things I'm interested in finding:
- MP-36 Megatron. I'd prefer all accessories, but he'll pretty much only be displayed in robot mode, so the must-have accessories are the scope/fusion cannon, flail, and alternate faces. I'm willing to consider a figure with transformation-related scratches and dings provided they're generally out of view in robot mode. I'm willing to combine trade with some $$$ (via paypal).
- Mastermind Creations Titanika (Strika)
- Mastermind Creations Kultur (Tarn)
- Masterpiece Ratbat
- Deluxe class Combiner limbs not available at mass retail in the U.S. (i.e., combiner components from TFCC, TFSS, Botcon, or Unite Warriors).
- Cybertron Thunderblast
- Takara Legends Ratbat (The one that looks like his Megatron: Origin form.
- Takara Legends Slipstream (The retool of Windblade)
- Takara Legends Nightbird (The retool of Arcee)
- Web-Diver Garyun
- Perfect Effect combiner upgrades (I only have the head/torso upgrade for Menasor)
- Dr. Wu Skybreaker sword or its evil dark energon analogue
