^Opps, Sorry... Text them both before I read your post... With pictures....^

Here's one. I use it in my collection, I don't think it ever left there...

 

SparkShare- This helps me justify having a multitude of variants of the same figure on the shelf and active. Lets take a simple guy like Megatron. We all have tons of him, and to justify that, when a new body is built or mutated(ie, new mold time) a part of the spark of a previous Megatron is used as the core of the new bodies spark.

 

The new form is independent and can act on it's own, but it shares a link with it's source. This for me makes a figure like Megatron a "true" Megatron and not just some guy using the name.

 

Optimus

Megatron

Bumblebee

Cheetor

Hot Shot

and so on, they all do it, it almost creates a liniage

 

Not all bots with the same name SparkShare though. For example, G1, Uni/Classics shares with RID Prowl, but Energon and Animated are guys who just have the same name(even though I renamed prowl). To go one further, the Movie Primes are different from the other Optimus'. They where a result of essence energy read and mutated when Primus awoke(ie, I got Primus).

 

All these things just help me explain to myself why I have so many of the same guy. Still, coined :)
