Transformers Victory figures

I recently acquired Victory Leo and Star Saber. MISB Deszaras is on the way. These are the main line leaders, which is where I was supposed to stop. The thing is, I really, really like these figures.
It is like a new branch of G1 for me.
That said, what are some easy standouts from the Victory line? Any must-haves?

Well, there's always Dinoking (a Monstructor repaint with dinosaur-based shells and, IMHO, a MUCH better paint job), a remarkably articulated G1 combiner... I'd say Road Ceasar, but I'm not a huge fan of him or his componant parts.

I was going to say Dinoking too. I would LOVE him. The characters are a good laugh as well, the comedy relief from the series.

IIRC, it wasn't a huge line, but the toys now fetch a pretty price, as you've probably just found out!
There's a checklist
here and some catalog scans
here, hope they help.

If you like victory try masterforce, and zone, they also have a few interesting figures as well

The MultiForce is easy to get as they've been reissued in Takara's Micromaster line. And I'm surprised nobody has said:
"Gattai! Liokaiser!"

Yeah, Liokaiser is one of my favourite combiners. A great looking combiner and I think the arms have good articulation.

Personally I've always wanted a Galaxy Shuttle

I was getting ready to ask what that shuttle was called, thanks Mkall. He does look good for a 1989 release doesn't have the legs as one piece, may have to eventually watch Victory, Zone, and Masterforce one of these days.

Me too, since he interacts with the later Micromaster Rocket Base. I may have to look into the Italian GiG release of the guy.
