Anyone know where I can find, maybe, 4 or 5 of the Classics Voyager Series Megatron loose for cheap? They don't have to be in the greatest condition.

The space-age laser gun is kinda buggin' me, and I want to make a custom G1-Walther version of this, and need all the spare parts I can get (but also, don't have alot of money to spend on something I'm just ripping apart and repainting).

I also need a loose (but not loose-jointed!) Classics Rodimus Prime & Starscream. I'm going to turn them into someone completely different...

Also, I need a cheap 2-pack of Ultra Magnus/Skywarp, which I plan on repainting into Armored Magnus & Thundercracker. I find them at any Target I go to, but just can't justify spending full price on something I plan on defacing...

Any help is appreciated!

The odds aren't favorable at this point, the toy isn't even a year old yet.

sometimes odd things pop up in my area thou, i'll keep an eye open.

Thanks, man!

(That Bay banner is hilarious!! Though, to be fair, it's CG-hardon Lucas' ILM that have screwed with the Transformers' looks...At least Bay wanted -and got- Peter Cullen to voice Optimus...)

As a repainter who has produced his own Classics Thundercracker, why not use Starscream rather than Skywarp? The color scheme permits you to paint far less and gray will be covered by the paint better than black would be.

Painting Starscream does make more sense, but I figured, since I need another Ultra Magnus, I might as well just use the Skywarp that comes with him, instead of trying to get a loose UM and an extra Starscream! Thanks for thinking of an easier way to do it, though.

Thanks, but 4 of anything for $80 is still $20 a piece. I'm going to be disassembling these, painting them, and putting them back together. And, with the Megatron, I'm basically going to be making Masterpiece Megs, only in scale with the Classics. With Rodimus, well...I wanna keep who I'm turning him into a secret, but the same thing. I'm going to be making a completely different figure out of it.

If I wanted to pay full price, I can still find them in stores...

That's cool, if you change your mind I have a bunch of Megatrons and Rodimus' still sealed and brand new.
