Howdy fellow Seibertronians and welcome to this week's Transformer photo challenge. This week's theme is a collab between Cobotron and myself.

Remember when we were just little tykes and all of our toys would just hang out together and we didn't have such strict shelving rules? Well this week's challenge is going to give us the opportunity to mix and match our toys again.

There are only two rules to this challenge; the picture(s) must feature a Transformer and must feature any other toy. That's right, I didn't say just action figures (they are of course welcomed). Let your imagination run wild! Any scenes or styles are welcomed.

Because the holidays are approaching and because this is a fairly open ended challenge; we are going to run this one for two weeks to give everyone plenty of time to participate. TFPC#8 will run from 11/15/15 to 11/29/15. Let's take our time and post some really fun stuff.

Submission post use TFPC #8 in the subject line. Non submitters, please feel free to join the conversation. Multiple submissions are welcomed and encouraged!

And remember to keep your browsers pointed to Seibertron.com for the latest Transformer news, the largest galleries and the most fun you can have this side of a space bridge.

More Bots. More News. More Awesome.

Nope. Even as a kid I kept my toylines seperate. The MotU stuff on one shelf, ThunderCats on another, Transformers had several to themselves.

Aw damn someone already did TMNT/TFs though to be fair mine was gonna be the recent movie versions of both franchises so I can still do it I guess. Or maybe I'll try something a bit different. I'm a bit of a stickler for scale though and not many of my figures are in scale with others.

Here's a quick one. Don't know if it counts since Death's Head is technically a Transformers character but the figure is from a Marvel toyline. Simple revamp of an old photo I took last year. Death's Head about to repeat Marvel UK history by blowing up G1 Bee with a big gun, but is unaware of a more hardcore alternate universe incarnation of Bee behind him with an even bigger gun.

Never picked up the new movie TMNT, but it would be cool if someone did post them with AoE figures..and all of my G1 TMNT are in my parents attic, which is blocked for access by a garage full of boxes :-(

Hey Carnivius, welcome to the party. Good stuffs you got there. Death's Head works for me and don't worry about using the same things as someone else, it sure wouldn't stop me. Also don't worry about photo skills, stepping up to the plate is what matters here.

Keep 'em coming ;)^

I'm glad you picked up my hint Carnivus!! Awesome stuff

Slightly off-topic: has anyone seen the "History of TMNT featuring Leonardo" multipack at ToysRUs?! It looks amazing, and took a lot of effort NOT to buy it!! It's on my list to buy at some point :-D

When they've made packs like that they've usually started with Leo or Raph, I would hope they finish out the set! I think they come off the bases, that'd be a deal breaker if they didn't.

I'm not sure if I really mixed toylines as a kid. Since I have 2 similarly-aged siblings and our parents tended to give us things to share, we'd often get a sizable chunk of a toyline. We all had Rugrats and had all the Rugrats, so we'd just play Rugrats.

Those are some great micro-match-ups man, especially Sunstorm X Acrocleve. I'm loving all the micromania tonight.

I used to display my Transformers with my Halo Mega Bloks collection, and even scrambled around parts of my different minifigures to make little partners for the different Cybertronians.
