hard to say if your talking a bout sheer volume of figs,.......not counting repaints, counting only tfs, all toys included or mass of plastic it could go to a couple different people.

I think it could be Lukis Bros from unicron.com, guy who makes tfu.info and Remy Rodis from TFkenkon.com- they have very big collections...

Lio Kaiser from Allspark and his brother DJ Soundwave. They have nearly everything, and extras of things you wish you had one of.

I win the prize for smallest collection. I could take my TFs through the "ten items or less" lane at the store.

Yea Lio Kaiser had every US release and most of the others ones, he had over 1000 TFs not including doubles (as of 2001-2.) They also collected other stuff and I think their toy total was between 10-12,000, and this was about a year ago!
Also Skywarp TPK (aka Predaking) has the most (Energon) Terrorcons. He was at 78 in December 2004.
Elvin Pena has the most Optimus Prime/Convoys.
I'd like to think I have the most basic G1 Insecticons. I have 17 with 2 more on the way, but I don't know.
Who has the most Jumpstarters?

Aug 23 2005, 10:16 PM
2 of my friends have almost every TF ever made..they have been collecting since 86...So I think that qualifies as a BIG collection!!

He didn't have pictures online I don't think. I know he did post pics at one time of his GI Joe collection. Like they had a legion of Vipers. You'd have to go to Allspark and PM him I think. I can't do that tho.
I figure I would be over 2000 toys if I didn't stop collecting for 2 years and didn't get rid of most of them. If I didn't stop collecting those 2 years, I would probably have nearly 700 or 800 TFs, based on how much I had bought previously.

I'm humbled, but I'm pretty sure I stopped collecting for too long for mine to be close to the size of a lot of these folks. So many years missed. A lot of people were collecting the whole way through and also have many resources that I would love to have. If I had a friend with an online store, things would be so much better.

Why it seems that Rubbermaid Totes have gone up since I last had to buy them? They cost like $12 now and last time I bought them they were only $7.

Sep 3 2005, 10:58 AM
I wish I could stop collecting - help me please

I'm not a completist or anything but I just want the figures that are for sale around me. I've got a bunch of 84-87 toys (Reflector, Shockwave, Monstructor, Piranacon), most of MW, most of RiD, 99% Armada (need the Costco Prime), 99% Energon (need UM), most of Universe, all the Alts (except Tracks), a few Cybertron toys and some G2 and BW thrown in.
The only imports I have are the 5 Micromaster combiners and Brave Max. I just don't have the money to buy BTs and other imports plus the US stuff.

as far as i know my beast era collection is probably among the largest as its 100% complete (includes all remolds/retools/repaints/releases made after bw except for those damn lucky draws.). but i'm pretty sure elvin pena's colletion of Primes is the largest prime collection i've ever seen. he even has most of the lucky draws i need to complete my bw collection.

Find pogoman over at the www.adctalk.com boards - I think there's a link on his profile there. He's the original MISB king!

I don't think I've even rounded out at 200 yet including minicons.

I only got back into collecting just before Armada started up so I've missed out on a lot. Now I'm mainly collecting what's recent though I have no objection to picking up old Universe shelfwarmers.

Did anyone mention Tony Preto?
I have a pretty big collection, but most of my stuff is loose.
Have just about ALL the G1 stuff, 3/4 the diaclone collection.
I'd say most of the UK exclusives, and most of the Japan G1 exclusives.
all the BW and BM, cept for the new botcon exclusives and Antigony (have her box and card though, and is really the only one I kinda miss not having)
If I ever get my own place and make my DREAM collection room, I'd like to thin out the herd, and drop some series I don't really care for.
Alt/BT, Action Masters, G1 and related Diaclone, gestaults, cities, movie characters and a couple other lines top my NEED list. Throttle bots and stuff just kinda taking up space.
I'd like to see this broken down into who has the biggest:
Rare Japanese exclusive and (weird) collection (for anything unusual like obscure model kits, or things most US market collectors never heard of)
Fakes, counterfits and or knock offs. Some hate them, I like them, seeing like a fake G1 Optimus, twice his normal size just makes one go WOW only if...
Related series, like Brave, or GGG.
