After some digging, I found a couple web sites that still have some info on them. But it seems they've been cancelled. Which I think is too bad because I thought it was a pretty cool idea. I was looking forward to getting them.

Vypra? Master Collector or custom? I really need to get up to date on (::cough:: overpriced) Master Collector/con stuff before I kick myself (like I usually do on Botcon stuff).

PS-If you ever decide to sell your Sunstorm, I know a guy (his name's JohnnyRnR).

Never mind, I was thinking of the female member of Cobra-La who I thought was named Vypra (and maybe she is). Judging by the filecard, that's not her.

PS-Does that mean no 25th anniversary figs for you? They are 4". But the CC looks SWEET.

Really...if I'd known about these WORMS figures...I woulda bought about a thousand of them back in the day

How could it be the second lamest? First, BURGESS MEREDITH was the voice of Golobulus (sp?), secondly, you must be forgetting Raptor and Crystal Ball.

Burgess Meredith was Golobulus?

MP-03 and 04 are pretty far from lame, as is Japanese Primus. Could use Megalo Convoy and Omega Sentinel too, but I've spent too much on ebay lately, and I'm trying to save money for some trips this summer, so I'll hold out for rare and cool. Any upcoming convention/store/Japanese exclusives to want to warn me about? (or sell directly, or hold them for a while?) My current priorities in TFdom are Slog, complete, with cardback, Greasepit's Micromaster, some Scorponok parts, Ratbat complete (I have one gold gun) with either tech spec or preferably full cardback, and various convention and Japanese exclusives (particularly the stupid DVD exclusives, Metrotitan, Battle Gaea, and two of the two packs around Battle Gaea). I'm also trying to finish off my run of RID/Machine Wars/and Beast Machines Decepticons, since they are all small runs and I'm trying to at least be able to quit looking for something.

Also, there were plenty of 2 packs this trip, but it was my fourth time looking for them.

next auction ill be putting up a ratbat with gold weapons, complete scorponok with box, no exclusives, though i used to have them, in my first trans collection, this is my 4th actually, and my last, i need to let go, collecting trans is usually shelling out 100 a pop, i will be putting up omega, metroplex and scorponok all mib, and possibly my bone white fort max, being i just sold a loose one last week for a crazy 740, i coudlnt believe it, guy hasnt paid, supposendly this weekend, i also have what i guess is the prize of my collection, a japanese original optimus prime in box, its beautiful, i dont plan on selling it, and if i do, im going to put a crazy reserve on it, anyone want to see a pic??

speedracex · Post by **speedracex** » Thu Mar 15, 2007 8:10 pm

actually here the link, still live when I won him, I would never sell him for the price I won him for either, in my opinion it was a steal, I havent seen one before this on ebay

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... 0066182370

one of the most interesting things about him is how roller ejects, the eject button is twice as long as the US version, also roller doesnt have the clips to hold him into the eject mechanism, he just rests against it, and the eject mechanism is twice as long, it was really shocked

I was actually watching both that Prime that you won, and your Fort Max. I'm holding out till I want to plunk down for a Japanese FM though. (although lately, it seems to go for less than a boxed US one?!) Don't suppose you have any desire to sell your Metroplex, Omega or Scorpy boxes separately from the figures? I know what you mean about needing to get out, it's tough. I've cut seriously down, as much for the space as for finances. I live in NY right now, so comics/cards/dvds/video games take up much less space than robots. Even sexy robots. So for the time being, I'm focusing on Deceptions, I figure that cuts it down to 40ish% (except for classics, that line is small and awesome enough that I gave in and have most of them). And I buy even Decepticons far less often than I used to.

yeah i wont break up anything that i have complete, yeah for myself a jap fort max is a way better deal, you get 2 swords with him, and grand max is even sweeter, the box art looks so much nicer to

To have a room full of robots, there is nothing like it, i love comics like the next guy, but to see all that mecha standing off on shelves is just a beautiful thing, especially imported stuff

Not disagreeing, not at all. Do you have any Japanese stuff that you are planning on selling soon?

Still under construction - I have very little artistic talent at all but some of the military folks here are what I'd call unpaid professional model makers and they are at work on it in the hobby shop (as you know thing is quite big)!

I haven't even seen it for a 2 months as the the base here has been busy (shutting down soon) but I'm supposed to have it pre-Christmas

Well it sounds really cool, I'd love to see when it's done.

I'm guessing this isn't your only USS Flagg? How many of those suckers you got?

For a loooong time it was on my list of "THINGS I WILL FIND A WAY TO GET SOMEDAY." But once I started collecting Joes I looked around and realized I have nowhere to put a 7-foot icon of my childhood desires.

So I'm going to get a Defiant instead. You know.....someday.
