I took these pictures a few months ago and meant to post them. I have since moved this case so that's why I took the photos.

All I do is themed collections these days. I picked my fav characters and try to collect all the figures from them. Missing is my Starscream collection which is much more comprehensive than any of these, my Skyfire/Jetfire, Galvatron, and Nemesis Prime Collections. I need a new case to put the rest of those in.

Enjoy!

GA! That's amazing, I like them grouped by character like that. Just had my miniscule-by-comparison collection arranged that way, now it's by series (Movie, Energon, etc.). Might go back.

I like the shots of them all out on the floor. Ever get the urge to roll around in them? :shock: Sharp plastic, yes, but so many TFs! :-B

ahaha no I never had that "urge". THey are all neatly put away in a the case again. I moved it from out in the open to the closet. It fits nicely.

There are actually 4 grimlocks, but it's hard to see. 3 G2 (grey, turqouise, blue) and then G1. I also have a knock-off Diaclone and original Diaclone Grimlock to add now!

There are no duplicate toys, they are all different in some form. Either the occasional custom or the japanese vs. us versions. There are ALWAYS differences between the US and Japanese versions of every figure. They were made in separate factories! Except for when Japan just took US packaged product from Hasbro and added stickers, such as the Giant version of Cybertron Starscream. That is a rare occasion though. All the movie toy are different even if the boxes look identical. Different part #'s and such. But that's for insane people.

Great collection, I like how organized it is!

Also, I didn’t realize until now how well Asuka blends with Rodimuss, was Rei somewhere?

I believe one is "shack-wave" and one is a complete knock off version of the original. Notice the more penile trigger on the Shack-wave. The other darker gray version has the same trigger as TF Shockwave does. I'm really not an expert, but I've seen about 3 or 4 different variations of shockwave over the years. The dark-grey one also has red transluscent parts instead of purple or clear.

ANd I have no plans to complete the Prime collection, it just sort of happened.
