I posted earlier about getting 86 Blitzswing early today, and I got some photos of him, figured I’d show him off for everyone wondering how he looks

Almost everything here is complete and I’m still in disbelief. Seller listed his whole collection for $10 a pop, except primus who was $20. When I told him what I wanted he said $140 takes it all and I obviously wasn’t gonna argue. I asked when I got there if he was just parting with his collection, why he was letting it go for so cheap, and he said he was just parting ways with the characters he didn’t really care about anymore. Genuinely couldn’t believe it but here we are! This has gotta be a contender for best Facebook marketplace score this year so far

I thought it would be fun to have Atlas Prime hold a small American flag to celebrate America's 250th anniversary, while also giving a little nod to Transformers' 40th anniversary.

Happy Independence Day! 🇺🇸🤖

Is it four? Twenty-two? Twenty-eight?

Also, been a while since I handled any of my Combiner Wars figures... Still love him, but man, does Abominus feel positively primitive to handle compared to the modern frame combiners. I remember when Legacy started, I felt like I would pass on most of these guys, and I only picked up Menasor because I didn't have the CW version... But boy, was I wrong!

Hello everyone!
Today I come to you with my 3d printed figure of Hefter from the IDW comics, a really cool design that due to his complete lack of importance(dude has at most 2 pages of appearance in the comic) would never get made into a figure. As such I decided to take it upon myself to make it into reality, and I think I succeeded, hopefully you guys think so as well.

If you want to see the figure's showcase you can check it out on my YT channel here:

For those that have been following my updates, I posted a good while ago about the WIP of this project and ended up taking longer than expected to actually finish it up and release the files cause life just decided I wouldn't have any free weekend for the entire last month.

Had a lot more fun than expected with this Gnaw fig!

it’s like music to my ears

It goes well with my Bottletron and Cannator. All purchased from Allie Express

Do we like these releases?

Which do we prefer & why?! Nemesis Prime or Age of Extinction Prime? From Studio Series

I’ve got about $38 for my budget right now and can’t seem to find nor get neither right now

Finally got lights and figured out how to get literally every bot I own on the shelves.

Back when I was building AOTP Superion, I tried to order Skydive to finish the set. I was a bit impatient and didn't want to wait 3+ weeks for Hasbro to actually get it to me, so I ordered him from a 3rd party reseller off Amazon. Anyway, I got swapped and they sent me Combiner Wars Skydive in AOTP Skydive's box and without any weapons, accessories, or instructions (so he wouldn't even be worth having as part of a CW Superion set). Originally I was going to send him back and recoup my money but I decided to keep him; thought it would be nice to have an undedicated bot that didn't really belong with anything else I was collecting at the time. After a while, though, he's become one of my favorite daily desk toys. Skydive was always my favorite out of the Aerialbots and I don't mind having multiple versions of him, even without the rest of the team and despite how stiff and awkward CW bots can be. Does anyone else have any bots like this? Maybe they fell in your lap or, like me, you got them in a sour deal?

I've since armed him with Legacy Slipstream's guns since they didn't suit her to begin with.

EDIT: This is now a post about getting scammed/how I've been collecting for 20 years but I'm still somehow a dumbass 😂

Same with Universe 2.0. Ironhide! Neither are hard to transform and both post quite well and feel nice in hand. Sure Galvatron would’ve benefitted from being a Voyager as he was originally intended but he’s not as bad as reviewers like Thew would have you believe. People genuinely act like these figures killed their dog or something. 💀

(In before people chastise me for all the dust and the literal mound of random Transformers I have; I don’t have enough space in my tiny room to display them all, and I refuse to stop getting more of them, nor will I sell any of them off, so this is sadly the best I can do.)

Transformers: Cybertron was my first experience with the franchise, at least voluntarily speaking. I did have some figures from RID (2001) back when it was still airing, but I was too young to appreciate them properly, so by the time Cybertron was on TV, I was actually aware of what it was, and it became my strongest, most sentimental hyper fixation to this day.

With that being said, these pics are NOT all of the ones I have, but I tried to get most of them in there while being limited to just 20 pictures, but in total I have all but ~15 figures from the series, give or take 5-10 for repaints/remolds/upgrades; I believe I have about 43 TFs just from Cybertron alone.😅

I have 384 in total across most of the different series, however.😏

I’m from western Canada and we never get anything early, went to go get some preorders from my transformers store and saw they had him in, 3 months early at that.
