ah, to be young and rich again.

 

Don't sweat it.. you can still be old and irresponsible.

 

That's my story, and i'm stick'n to it! :D lol

I have paid retail for all 19 of my Alts, I think even I got a couple on clearance. Haven't been willing to pay the eBay prices for the ones I am missing (like Swerve, Camshaft, Mirage) and that's why I do not have the complete set. Was lucky to get my Rodimus for $24.99.

I have every alt and BT released except:

- the japanese release of decepticharge (it was limeted to 10 I believe and was just the US release with a sticker on it)

- the European alts. I've worked some trades to get a few, but I'm still looking for most of these guys :-( If anyone has a good source or knows someone reputable who would like to trade them let me know

Also if anyone has a alt ravage or rumble in really good shape for trade let me know.

 

I've bought nearly all of them at or below retail, but a few were above (mostly exclusives). My most expensive one was easily BT nemesis prime. My cheepest was probably swindle. I think I found a him for $12.

what are the European alts?? I have heard that smokescreen came in a right and left steering wheel design - is this what is meant?? Was it more than just smokescreen?? If so, which ones??

For the most part they're the "red box" guys getting their overseas release in the newer "bubble" packaging. There are no variants of the figures themselves.

Thinking about buying two Curio cases tonight so I can put my Alts and other prized TF in there.

Getting closer to that complete set. Shockblast, Mirage, and Swerve are on their way!

Didn't they also have a photograph of the figure on the packaging front rather than an illustration? Remember seeing a windcharger in red packaging like that.

Rodimus finally arrived so now i'm complete...

 

now i'm working on getting extras like another Meister, tracks, silverstreak... so i can put the reprolabels on them and still have the original decor

 

reprolabels i have include Divebomb, Tantrum, Hydradread, G1 Jazz, Kickass Grimlock, and G1 skids.

 

maybe I'll get brave and do a few customs...

 

my only regret has been i didn't buy multiples when i saw them on sale or clearance...

 

most of them i've found in retail stores until hts opened... now i just order directly from them.

 

i've only had to go to ebay for rodimus, rumble and ravage.

 

Dead-end was the hardest to find because i refused to buy him from ebay... i lucked out and KB toys had him in stock for an hour or two one day wkile i was looking at their site... haven't seen him since.

Woot, my 3 alt rodumus' arrived.... which made it possible to create this wall of awesome :P

 

 

Im almost pleased its all over... it's the only line that im a completest in, and it was getting out of hand. They will be missed... but i guess i still have masterpiece to keep me going :)
