Here's a list of Transformers I've received from friends over the years who just found them in their attic/cellar and knew I'd want them:

 

Mike got me:

G1 Optimus Prime, only missing gas hose, great condition

G1 Shockwave, complete, great condition

 

Daniel got me:

G1 Predaking, with only one connector kinda busted (still stands).  Includes head, fists, Predaking sword, and feet.  no other weapons (shrug)

G1 Scorponok, including Lord Zarak.  Missing some accessories.  Great condition.

(said he dimly remembers mom giving away FORT MAX, COMPLETE, years ago, or he'd've GIVEN that to me too!!! what a pal!)

 

Geoff got me:

G1 Getaway, no PM

G1 Chromedome, no HM.

 

Aren't free TFs great?

 

What about you guys?

I got E Terradive free when I bought Alt Shockblast from TRU.

Never in my freakin' life  :tfsad

Got some PVCs from a friend

Love the little PVC's

i got bw megs, snapper, razorbeast and tigertron from some guy that i hated. And my uncle gave me some that he had sitting around.

Outside of all the ones i got as presents as a kid here are ones I've recieved free of charge in the last 4-5 years:

 

G1

----------------

Twin Twist x2

Jetfire (junker)

a few casettes and pieces

50+ weapons

Grimlock (junker)

Nosecone

Slapdash

a few other junkers & pieces

 

BW

------------------------

TONS of McD toys

Nightscream

some i can not remeber

 

Armada/Energon

--------------------

Unicron

Battle Ravage

 

also a few g1 books and some Ko's and go Bots here and there. I'm sure i've missed few.

The son of our rabbi is now married and has kids, has been for about eight years now.  Gave me some free G1s knowing I'd like them.  Seaspray and a junker Beachcomber.

 

I got e. Battle Ravage free from a friend who didn't know why he had bought it.

 

I personally bought e. Galvatron for $27, so it almost felt like it was free.

 

Other than that, all TFs that were otherwise not purchased by me directly were gifts, unless those count as free TFs, then I've got loads of 'em.  I mean, my mom for my bday a couple of weeks ago showed me that she had pre-ordered Star Convoy.  I also have others both Japanese and American, but they were gifts for either the holidays or my bday.

Lets see, when I was a kid my friend gave me his Astrotrain, Blitzwing, and Blaster and I still have all 3 in GREAT condition.

 

Other than those, a few months back when I was buying combiner limbs, twice in the same week I bought a few limbs and the checkout girl somehow managed not to ring one of them up, so I got 2 of those for free.  :thumb

i got g1 convoy (its only got takara off the bottom) complete off my cousin as well as hot spot, optimus in bad condtion as i've lost all the accessories and i've had to glue his arms back on, they still move cos i studied it before glueing.

 

hot spot's ladder is broken and so is one of his arm clips that move the hands out, other than that and having no accessories they are both fine

I got a G2 optimus prime and a mcdonalds BM jetstorm
