I'm not sure if this is the right forum, but here it is.

A few years back I went on eBay and purchased all of the Stunticons and Protectobots individually, however given that I was still in high school so I didn't have much money at the time. This resulted in me getting some not so good quality Transformers, however the ones I got were in fairly good condition even if some of them had faded paint in places, loose joints and broken parts. Hotspot's ladder is cracked off for example.

Anyway. Given my lack of money at the time when I got Hotspot and Motormaster I had to take what I could get, so this meant I could only bid on the auctions where just the toy with no accessories were being offered. This resulted in me having the Transformers for two combiner teams withs out the fists, feet, chest and hips pieces and in the case of Menasor head. So what I'm asking is, after a long rant, does anyone know where I can find these accessories for Menasor and Defensor for a decent price? I was on eBay and Menasor's parts are almost non existent and the only parts I could find for Defensor were being sold individually and for very high prices.

Also I would be interested in finding the arm and fist pieces for Devastator and the rotor blades for Vortex.

Thanks for the help.

The prices on e-ay are mst likely accurate and that is your best place for parts. Look for sellers like wheeljackslab.

As getter said eBay is your best bet. Just remember, you don't need to buy it right away. Sometimes if you are patient you can find parts in good quality at a reasonable price.

I've been looking around and I can get all the parts for Defensor for about $40. However I can't seem to find a complete set of Menasor parts. The best I can do is get his gun, a fist and maybe a foot. Other then that its buying a complete Motormaster set, which is tempting, but other then his missing parts my Motormaster is in pretty good shape.

The e-bay seller dit138 usually has multiples of combiner pieces. Some pieces seem high, but you'll never deal with a nicer ebay seller. I was in your boat not too long ago while trying to complete my combiner pieces. Really--just be patient on ebay and pick your bidding wars, and you'll come away with the pieces before you know it without killing your wallet.

My personal advice is to bid on "lots" where people auction off everything in one go like weapons neublans feet fists etc.

You pay over the odds for that one piece you need but if you do that a few times for what you need in the end you have a nice lot of assorted weapons you can sell yourself and recoup most of your income, just depends on how much disposable income and patience you have.
