Hi! As my name insinuates, my 3 (almost 4) year old son LOVES Transformers. I was at the Salvation Army and found this Transformer from the 80's, so I picked it up for him. He's obviously missing pieces. I've figured out that he's a constructicon, but I can't figure out which one, because it doesn't look like any of the ones that I find pictures of. Here are the pictures of the TF in question (sorry for the poor quality):

Anyone have any idea who he is so that my son will leave me alone? Haha! :grin:

That one's easy. He's Mixmaster, missing his mixing drum :)

Glad to be of service.

Thank you!!

That was my guess, too :) but I've only seen TF Animated, and he doesn't look much like the newer ones. :) I do like Mix and Scrapper on TF animated. "Look at those tight little exhaust pipes!" LOL

Thanks again! My son will be so pleased. :D

That's because he isn't.

He's a 1985 Mixmaster. so he looks like the version from the 1980's cartoon.

The Animated ones haven't gotten any toys yet.

Would the boy care tho? ;)

And I think he knew that the Mixmaster he got was of the 80's, he put that in the first post for pete's sake :P

WOW! What a find! I never find any vintage TFs at Salvation Army or Goodwill stores. Only I every find is stupid Power RAnger toys.

I found a G1 Inferno at this weird store of random crap at the mall...It was missing it's hands and gun and had moderate chrome and sticker ware but otherwise in decent shape...It was being sold for $6(!) so I snatched it up and then turned right around and sold it to a collector for $60 :D
