After 23 years, I have finally acquired several key transformers figures that have been on my holy grail list. (Most Wanted) I'd like to see others collectors pics of their "holy grail hauls!"

Here's mine:

i haven't really gotten any "grails" so to speak.
i mean, does the mp series kinda count? or alot of vintage g1's? i dunno, nothing to crazy, but your three pics had alot of grails in them.
one man's grail could be another man's pisser.
as said earlier.. i think original diaclone's and such are grailesque. and deathasaurus and all that. but what about alt. swerve or alt. decepticharge? could those be considered? or takara's energon general galvatron?
but i guess i could take some pics too.
:grin:

Yes!! I was lucky enough to win the bid on a G1 Clear Ghost of Starscream Jet! He and G1 SunStorm are two of my favorites. Unfortunately I cannot get you a larger pic of this group at this time, because it is in my photobucket album and for some reason I shrunk it and I can't figure out how to enlarge it again without having to take another pic of the group.

My grail is all six G1 trainbots, boxed (although not necersarily unopened), unstickered, complete and in perfect nick.

So far Im one sixth of the way there (please anybody who sees auctions for these tell me!).

I don't consider any TFs to be "grails", since my want list changes based on my ever-changing interests. Currently I'd love to have a Japanese G1 Dezarus (Deathsaurus), e-hobby ghost of Starscream, and some more Botcon 2005 virulent clones for my Descent Into Evil display.

I got all of my grails, one was a case fresh original selaed Star Convoy that I got before the reissue and the other was a Lucky Draw Prime.

Here are some pics:

Oh yea, this wasn't a grail, but a cool find at a local store (it's a flawless never removed from box Marlboor Wheeljack):

My grails have to be the G1 Technobots and Terrorcons. I've been after these two combiner groups for years. I'm close to possibly getting the Terrorcons, but the Technobots are proving elusive... and by elusive I mean expensive.

Also Wheeljack has become a grail for me lately. Right now I'm after anything Wheeljackish.

Getter, dude, that Marlboor Wheeljack IS my holiest of grails!!!

If you ever want to sell it, you know where to go. Do you accept Visa? :grin:

Hehe...I just found the original thread that you posted that in. It was posted 5 days after I joined here, and that was the post that made it my grail. I had never seen it before, but I loved it instantly.

I've recieved a couple of my "grails," BotCon Ratchet, RID Brave Maximus, BocCon Sunstreaker, BotCon Side Swipe, RM Victory Saber, the Beast Wars Convoys (Primal, Lio, Big). I've got a few more to get, but that's the joys of collecting. I'm glad you've gotten some of your grail pieces, it's a wonderful feeling when the packages come in the mail.

The Dark Powermaster God Ginrai is my kitbash paint job to produce the one of a kind Decepticon Nemesis Powermaster Prime! I wanted a Clone version to match the Orignial!
