Energon Combiners

So, when these were first announced, I was extatic. These are defenitly my all time favorite combiners. Now If I had only gotten my full sets before ripping them apart... No loss, I'm workng on procuring more. But I was thinking about how many I was planning.

E Bruticus
E Superion
E Devastator

I was planning on having 3 full sets just to be pretty. Here was my list of bashes. Some might get finished, I doubt the rest will.

E G1 Bruticus
E Dinobots
E G1 Devastator
E Motomaster

Unfortunatly I fan't find them for less then $7 a pop anywhere, which is frusterating. And it's usually the same one. :/

The Dinobots and G1 Bruti are actually gopna get finished one of these days. Here are some others, how would yall do these?

Predaking
Terrorcons
Defensor

(yeah, I know I'm kinda rambling, this might be the wrong forum and I have no pics. I'm tired, bare with me.)

Baricade will eb grimlock (Thanks doomtron!)
Swoop will be the skyshadow plane mold.
Snarl is gona be the backhoe
Slag will be the tank
and Sludge will be the crane.

I don't expect them to look perfect. I just thought it'd be interesting, expecially if you concider them transforming into Dinoking

yeah, I hate how it's hard to find these guys for a good price even though they were sold really cheap at those discount stores. I got Bruticus, but only half of Devastator. and I want at least doubles. :( I'm not sure I could bring myself to kitbash them unless I had a good plan or I had enough extras. but I'd love to do LioKaiser.

I want to see an Energon Terrorcon combiner. did you mean G1 Terrorcons? make Slugslinger into Sinnertwin or whatever the leader was named.

i agree about all that. walmart had em all go clearance around here. and i never thought twice about nabbing them..

i have all of the contructicons. missing one energon hand though..

need both copters for bruticus. and need all limbs for superion... but i have two of those on the way.. YAY...

i think that these were some of the best gestalts to date... i love them.. wish that there could have been a good one for cybertron.. but hey ill deal....

I love em too! My only gripe about them is that there are only three bots and two repaints for each gestalt! I would be able to part with my money easier if it was five different bots like the originals.

It was Hun-Grr that was the leader. Sinnertwin was the other two-headed one.

My own Bruticus has been on the back-burner for a while - most are finished, but Vortex needs some more paint, and I'm still trying to work out how I'm modding Swindle.

I had to wait ages before I could even think about Swindle. I needed a Bonecrusher to make him, and no-one had him at all... dozens of Wideloads in TRU, but not a Bonecrusher in sight - I couldn't even get one from Dave Ellis - they were like gold dust!
Now there's bundles of 'em in the Entertainer for half price... :P

The... where?

I know. I grabbed all I could when they went half price. My problem is I cant find Blight and Stormcloud, or the last two of Dev. I figured "okay, last wave, easy to fine" so I cut up Blight and Stormcloud. BAD move. I never saw them again. I'm missing several pieces. What I'd like to have is 2 of all of them, one to keep combined then one indivigual, then 3 more of each, for all my kitbashing needs. But that would cost an arm and a leg. It'd be nice if ya could find them for about $2.50 each... *sigh*
