Found a trans metal Optimus in good condition but missing weapons, Walmart exclusive Cheetor, and terrorsaur 🤙🏻

Mostly for my love of beast wars but also a bunch of other robot stuff I love, enjoy!

I was a framer for just over 10 years, started at a small specialty store where i learned from a long time amazing framer for almost 3 years, who taught me amazing skills and preservation techniques, then ran a frame shop inside a Joanns for just over 7 years. Despite working in a craft store for most of my time, i took what i learned in my beginning’s and really made my shop my own. The frame shops inside Joanns were sort of autonomous and as long you were busy and i was mostly left alone to do my own thing and manage my small team of framers, which was amazing. Luckily the area we were in was a more wealthy suburb so people had a lot more free money to spend on framing. Over the years i built up a very solid clientele and customer’s would refer friends to me quite often and i became well known for more complex shadowboxes, Jerseys, military keepsakes, and mounting odd objects. I ran my shop very successfully and profitably for a long time and am very proud of the work i produced with some much more limited resources. Although i moved on and have been in the insurance industry the last 10 years, almost exclusively because I had to pay my bills lol, but i look back very fondly on my time as a framer and one day hope to have my own shop and art gallery. 🤙🏻

Dixon California was having a really great toy show today, not a ton of beast wars, but found a few gems! Depth charge with all his launcher discs, trans metal rattrap with a little wear and tear, Optimus minor (weirdest little dude lol), and cybershark. Some are missing some pieces, but for being loose figures I was ok given the prices, happy hunting everyone! 🤙🏻

Found this flame toys primal at a toy swap meet today in box in perfect condition and couldn’t pass it up! 😍

I remember seeing this flame toys primal a few years ago and always wanted it, went to a toy swap meet today and there he was in box in perfect condition, couldn’t pass it up 😍

Just wanted to share my collection and display after a few years of intentional collecting. Not just beast wars but love for all the stuff I grew up on. Beast wars especially had a big affect on me as a kid, and finally having the chance to hunt and find pieces I love and also newer lines like the movie versions is awesome. 🤙🏻

Got lucky today and picked these up in good condition for a good price, all the chrome finishes were still looking good as well.

Couldn’t resist these beautiful abominations lol

Had her since she was a puppy, she’s insane still but so smart and sweet, never aggressive but also almost breaks my nose every morning aggressively kissing me when I wake up lol

I got the Prime and Dinobot recently and really pleased, so looking forward to these.

My collection and display after around 5 years, bunch of random stuff I like and have collected over the years.

Preordered these a few months ago after being happy with some of the yolopark rise of the beast large figures and they finally came. Really happy with the quality and detail for the price, hope they keep doing the rest of the maximals and keep them all properly scaled. This is my first dinobot figure, now I need a proper rattrap!

I like this a lot, but it was like 80 bucks 😓
