ive been thinking. how many of you overlooked the non-tv appearing bw and bm figs simply due to that fact? now i owned every character who appeared on the shows, but i also owned almost all the ones that had no tv time. and there were some great figures there. i cant help but think that there are some people out there who missed out on some of these gems.

Not to mention the JPN BWII ones, those should be in everyone's bw collection.  still bugs me that a croba is a maximal...

man, they had Tripredicus as a maximal in BWII...then again, Magmatron was a Max here in the US...

i was more or less comenting on domestic figures. its pretty much a given saying that everyone missed out on the neo figures. or any overseas figure ever. unless you import them that is. and a few years ago i dont think it was as popular as it is today.

Quickstrike is my fav Pred and Rattrap my fav Max

while all your suggestions are good characters, but some of them (especially bludgeon and thunderwing) are completely ass toys. By G1 standards.

I collected only Show characters at first but then moved out to other figs. One of my favorites was Scourge. I hate his kibble but I love his bot mode design. Fuzors lost me a little. They were all ugly for the most part. Mutants, didn't touch any of those mutants.
