Thanks!

I found it odd how hard it was to decide what to display, and what not. I simply didn't have room for everything, so choices had to be made.


In other news, I've bought my second ever Prime (the series) figure. Willy J never shuts up :-P about how awesome the vehicon drone and Wheeljack are, so I bought Wheeljack. He'll be here Wednsday, at which time I'll decide if I pursue more. My boys are watching the show on Netflix and it's growing on me.

IF it helps Iron, Wheeljack is probably my favorite toy of the entire line. And, WJ talked me into trying out a Vehicon too. I have absolutely no regrets.

Changed the title to what my oldest son calls the toyroom. Also may need to add another shelf if I keep picking up Prime figures. Plus MP Shocker is on the way. He is coming by boat, though, so who knows when he'll show up....

I like the name!
Have you bought more Prime guys since Wheeljack?

So is that little kid your son? Do you let him play with any of them?

A vehicon drone is on its way, and I'm actively pursuing Ratchet, Bulkhead, and Optimus.

Yeah, that's one of my boys. The dresser you see in the pics is full of Armada, Energon, and a couple Cybertron toys. I let him play with those.

A- for the name, more alliteration needed. :P


What sort of Prime figures are you hunting down? :-?

Cool, but why specifically the Unicron Trilogy?

I think the toys are crap. I collected them at the time, because I was caught up in being a completest. Now I have no attachment to, or care for them, so I'm fine if my boys break them while playing.

No, you're not. I'm sorry, but CW Mags is a $45 toy, not worth a dime over $20. MP Mags is a $150 to $200 toy that's worth every penny and then some.

I have them both, and while I'd gladly buy MP again, I'm going to try and sell CW to get some of my money back.

Actually, yes I am. I'm a teenager who can't afford to buy figures that expensive, and given that I don't have any other MPs (though I want to get Shockwave), he would feel out of place in my collection. And while I've always liked Magnus, he's never been one of my favorite characters (unlike Shockwave), so I'm not going to spend $200 on a figure that I don't really want or need.

I went and bought him (along with Shockwave) at Botcon (due to having amassed a small collection of MP's to display), and I don't regret it a bit. Easily the best MP I have (out of Hasbro Sunstorm and Prowl, MP-8X, Takasa Wheeljack, Shockwave, and Magnus).

Awesome! Even though I was a bit of an ass, I'm very glad you got him. I still consider Magnus to be one of the greatest Transformers I have. Easily a stand out in any display. ;)^

Sadly, since I don't have much space to display stuff, he's just sitting there with the other Autobot MP's on one side of my nightstand staring at the Decepticon MP's on the other side.

Finally got around to putting my little 3d metal model of Optimus together. Holy ****, it was a bit more difficult than I expected, but very rewarding. Hell, I only broke two small pieces. Here's is a few snapshots of the process.

Those things look super cool, and fun (if not slightly dangerous) to assemble. I should really get one, but who? Soundwave looks cool, but dang, so does that Prime.
Nice Job!

Hey, what's your story on MP Ratchet? Yay or Nay?

Yay, eventually. Gonna wait and see what Takasa Tony will have to offer, first.

Defensor joined the ranks today. Nor on purpose, but it is what it is.

Still haven't decided if I'm keeping him or not.

I honestly don't understand that one. It's not made to fit in with MP's being all modern and such. Is it Generations scale? I like this one better anyways:

Nice haul! Do you have the normal Superion already? And how you liking Megatronus?

I like both actually! And Shaj, Generation Toy's J4zz is 6.75" I think, so he's MP carbot sized in robot mode. He has an IDW feel, I like it. Works well with my mix of bots on my "MP" shelf :lol:

I'm a fan of Megatronus, he's still on my desk here at the office! I also enjoyed that IDW TF:TM print, I'm pretty sure it is ALMOST word for word in the dialogue sense. And of course, Don Figueroa ;)^
