Does anyone have any idea what this purple gun goes to? It was with a box of Transformers train parts from the 1980s, but I don't think it goes with that train set. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance everyone!

You forgot Wreckloose in that last pic, the Scout class guy on the right.

Like Backstop, he's supposed to come with a Cyber Key. And since it's the 2010 version of Backstop that's there with him, I'm thinking it's a safe bet that that's likewise the 2010 version of Wreckloose instead of the original Cybertron version.

Ooops, yeah totally forgot about Wreckloose. Thanks.


Technically he is a very minor repaint of Cybertron Wreckloose.

The line was the general Generations line of 2010. It saw quite a few Cybertron repaints. There was also Undermine in that wave if I'm not mistaken.

Backstop, Wreckloose, and third fellow Undermine were originally three Jungle Planet figures in the Cybertron toyline of 2005. Years later, the three Scout class figures saw rerelease in 2011 as Market Six exclusives in the subtitle-less "Transformers" line of 2010-2011, sporting red packaging similar to the then-new Generations line, and even given brand new character bios different from their original Cybertron profiles.

While Undermine was basically a straight reissue in new packaging, Backstop was given an all new deco and Wreckloose had only some minor paint differences. The latter two also had their keys changed to blue while Undermine kept his original green key.

They were in individual packaging or sold as a 3 pack? I know of the 3 pack with scattershot and the GPC dino one, guess it came out at the same time right?

In the U.S., they were only available at Big Lots, while in Canada they were at Maxi&Cie/Superstore and Winners. And in the UK, they were found at Toys'R'Us.

Number 1 is from a KO Browning from the 80's.

That's the only one I recognize right away.
#13 looks familiar. Maybe a He-Man MOTU gun?

#2 from the first pic looks close to Powermaster Slapdash's gun, but looks like it might also be a knockoff or slightly melted. I did a google image search for "transformers G1 yellow gun" and found it pretty quick. Might not work as easy for the black or chrome guns, but the other colors might work.

Tried google again with "transformers micromaster ramp" and believe the the blue (#3 in 3rd pic) one is for the micromaster tanker truck transport and the black one (#2 in 3rd pic) is for Countdown.

Edit: finding the countdown ramp led me to finding possibly #7 in the first pic also being for the rocket base.

A lot of these guns look familiar, I just can't place them. Definitely not all Transformers. I know I had 8, it looks a lot like the gun to a Sky Commander vehicle, but the design doesn't match any I'm looking at. 10 I think I have somewhere, and I feel like 15 was connected to something that broke, like a Convertor or something... Just happened across 7, it goes to the Micromaster Rocket Base/Countdown.

For parts, 2 is the ramp panel for Micromaster Skyhopper's helicopter. 3 goes to Super Human Samurai Syber-Squad deluxe Zenon.

For panels, 1 is the back panel to Groundbreaker's ATV in base mode. 3 looks like the ramp that came with Greasepit. 5 is a back thigh panel to Scorponok. 6 is chest armor to Defensor. 2 is probably a Rocket Base ramp since its gun is above.

I think that's everything I recognize.

Well, I learned something. Turns out the reason why gun 10 looked familiar was because I thought it was the gun that came with my used G1 Doublecross. Turns out it isn't and the gun that came with him was Repugnus'. I guess I can buy a used weaponless Repugnus now and not feel bad about it.

Number 2 in the second pic, is G1 Skyhopper's ramp from the Helicopter base.

Number 3 in the last pic I believe goes with the Micromasters Pipeline and Gusher Tanker Transport base accessory.

You can try using Transformerland.com's part ID feature to identify more guns and parts.

Nothing to really offer, but the cameras seem to be styled after a Sony Mavica. They stored pictures on floppy disks which gave them their unique square shape. They hit the market in Japan in '97 so they would have been hot new technology at the time.

Wanted one of these so bad when they came out.

Yeah, we've had alot of obscure items. Diaclone, Microman, and other pre transformers stuff is our specialty. This is just extraordinary obscure. Heres a few more pics, they're tiny "VHS" cassettes that going into the sterioscope. For scale the VHS cassettes are about the size of a 2 by 4 lego brick

Does anyone know the story of this G1 Red Bumblebee? Obviously it's a custom box, but I feel like there is more than meets the eye with the Red Bumblebee as well since he doesn't have the original sticker it should have. I seem to remember that these were available at a BotCon or something from a dealer back in the early 2000s, but can't remember any other details. I obtained this from a collection I bought about 5 or 6 years ago. Any help with further information for this item would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Doesn't a "Takara Japan" copyright without a date make it a Microchange figure? Maybe that only applies to Japanese Diaclone vs foreign Diaclone? Any chance the Autobot symbol is also a custom since it's poorly cut and in a custom box?
