Trypticon was one for me. I wanted him SOOOOO badly for christmas one year and i was super excited cause i saw this massive box in the parents closet. I had a very poor family growing up and to actually get something like him was beyond belief.

I opened it X-mas morning and it turned out to be a Scorponok instead. i was a little beside myself trying to gauge if i should be stoked of not because it totallly wasn't what i was expecting.

After that brief pause, I gave my head a shake and screamed bloody blue murder in excitement.

Still want that Trypticon though.:)

Plenty I've not bought in the past that I now wish I'd bought. it's just one of those things that happens in life I s'pose, but here are a few of my "Kickers"

 

Armada Thundercracker- seen him once and didn't have the cash for him

 

G1 sunstreaker- It was the week beofre xmas one year. Found him in a newsagents for only £7. But my evil mother wouldn't let me buy him :emo

 

Movie 07 Grindcore- Damnit I wanted that figure, but didn't have any funds when he was out

 

Build team in constructicon colours- yet again, no funds when they were around

 

Movie maniacs large alien queen figure with nest diorama- was such a cool set, just didn't have the cash at the time (yet again)

 

And many many more. I feel like crying now...... :emo

Not exactly a toy, or qualifying for this thread as I could get one in a day easily but I kinda want one of those Rey Mysterio masks..

 

Spawn Interlink 6, several times I had seen those in my price range in person but turned em down for transformers, now I can find the transformers I got everywhere online BUT cant find the IL6//

Toys R Us Exclusive RID Scourge (G2 Laser Optimus black repaint).....I remember seeing him saying to myself that looks cool. Then, never saw him again. I didn't get back into collecting Transformers until after that though, when the Hasbro Commemorative re-issues started showing up at TRU, but in hindsight, I wish I would have picked him up. I have the Takara G2 Laser Optimus Reissue, but the black and chrome finish on the RID Scourge figure looks awesome. If only I'd have known.... :tfsad

oOH Scourge, sheesh I had many opportunities to get him but the 2 week deliverytime from the Orient was too long. I have found teh G2 LOP but I just cant begin to consider getting him, it would feel so much like settling for 2'nd best.

Get him if you can. I always wanted this figure, and now would also love to have RID Scourge. The figure is awesome.

    • Finally, we have some official, non-side-released, Rise of the Beasts toys to check out. Beast Combiner Optimus Primal with Skullcruncher is a fun toy, borrowing heavily from the Spark Armor concept from Cyberverse while bringing something new to the table. You really have to like the wink and a nod homage to the very first Beast Wars release from back in the day. While targeted towards younger fans, there's more than a little here for older fans as well.  
    • Well, it finally happened, animated is finally getting some love. It's been much too long await in my humble opinion. The only question now is whether or not it was worth it.

Thanks so much for stopping by and if you haven't already be sure to like and sub and all those wonderful things. I always greatly appreciate it 🙂 Catch!

    • To give context to the "Stomach Of Unicron" one, the outline Sunbow handed to Ron Friedman for his second TFTM script told him to do one thing, the script he turned in depicted quite another thing (outline and script available here): https://sunbowmarvelarchive.blogspot.com/p/mp-4034-transformers-movie-sunbow.html
