We all have one. A big figure, a spectacular figure, a figure very special to you. The figure that's displayed promanatley in your collection.

Mine is my ROTF Supreme class devastator, i got it for my birthday this year. B-)

- Overlord, boxed complete: one of the best figures ever made, and my favourite decepticon.
- AM Bombshell, awesome condition - somebody taped it with the bubble back to the card, which is still in awesome condition too.
- G1 Dinobots: I got all of them complete (except Swoop - I want one...), 2 with box in beautiful conditions, took me 3 years to hunt them down.

G1 Magnus
G1 Magnus (movie/diaclone color)
Magnus Jr.
Magnus MP
Magnus World Smallest TF
Magnus Myclone
Magnus Electronic Voice Synthesizer
Magnus Heroes of Cybertron PVC
Magnus Robot Hero PVC
Magnus Laser

Magnus Titanium WWI
Magnus Univ.
Magnus Revoltech
Magnus Super Deform statue
Magnus Hard Hero bust
Magnus NY Comic Conv bust
Magnus RID leader size
Magnus RID spychanger
Magnus Energon,
Magnus Animated
Magnus Classic
Magnus City Commander

I'm still in a hunt for G1 Magnus Shining/urine version,
Magnus bust by Art Asylum, Magnus RID (black version-dream on, G1 Magnus cartoon cell, Magnus Animated (Roadbuster version).

My pride and joy...it would have to be RotF Leader Optimus Prime. It's simply a super cool figure.

At the top of my list is MP Starscream (Takara G1 repaint). IMO, the best ever Starscream...until they make a better one :)

Also, ROTF OP, ML Soundwave and Soundblaster, Alternity Black Convoy and Lemans Blue Megatron, and TFA voyager Starscream.

But my fave is still MP SS, hands down.

Superlink Galvatron G (Voyager-sized Energon Galvatron). I own rarer figs, but he is one that truely captures the awesomeness that is Transformers.

Hmm...I have quite a few actually:

MISB Botcon Cyclonus
G1 Jetfire
BW2 God Neptune

But the absolute centerpiece of my collection has got to be Omega Prime. It's a very hard figure to top.

Off the top of my head, I'd have to say my re-issue God Ginrai, in all his chrome-plated, retracting-fist goodness. :grin:

Ooh, this is a good one. I'll have to think about this for a minute...

It's a tie between G1 Predaking, G1 Devastator, 2007 Botcon Alpha Trion (AFA sealed), and 2009 Botcon Wings of Honor set. I just couldn't decide between them which is "the best", so I went with a list of "what I love the most."

For rarity sake? BotCon 2006 Darksyde Megatron and Galaxy Force Noisemaze Production Type. There are 500 or less of each of those figures in existence.

Personal treasure? Victory Leo.

Item that means the most to me? MP-01 Convoy. My then to-be wife bought it for me, essentially saying she was cool with the hobby.

My single favorite TF, or toy for that matter, is my 20th Anniversary Prime (The first red release, not the later orange DVD release)

I got him the longer Smokestacks and a scaled up G1 trailer.

He's the centerpiece of my collection, and I have a MIB version standing behind him.

For rarity I have quite a few customs making them one of a kind. My favorites are a custom Binaltech Prowl and a "Classics" Shockwave custom that I love.

I'm working on a Custom G1 Devastator that will be my pride n joy when completed.

I have to go with the Masterpiece figures as the highlights of my collection. I have Prime, Megatron, Grimlock, and Skywarp. They are on the top shelf of my display.

My G1s are in a glass front case all of their own. The one that gets most prominent position will be the latest repaint. So it changes quite often.

My original Pepsi Prime. The sticker may be a little dull now, but it means a lot to me, as my grandparents won it from a drawing at Woolworths back in 85 and gave it to me for my 7th birthday.
