If you had, hypothetically of course, a maximum of £500 that you had no choice but to spend on Transformers, what would you buy?

Assuming you have nothing to start with ? Or from what you have at the moment ?

I'd get every Micromaster I don't currently have by going on a mission of winning mixed lots on eBay, then I'd distribute the doublers around the Hub. Whatever money I had left would go on Animated pre-orders. After several years of determined scavenging, I've got most of the legacy stuff I want.
Does knocking out a wall to make room for more TFs count?

It would have to be a complete Fortress Maximus. But he normally goes for £300 or so on eBay, so I'd throw in a complete Overlord and Star Sabre.

I would also pick up all the cassettes and Actionmasters I don't have. Then use the rest of the cash to grab as many Headmasters, Targetmasters, Powermasters and Micromasters as I could find.
Then, Hawaii.

Fortress Maximus is likely, or some old school Japanese toys.

Well having spent just over 500 (why oh why?) in the last 6 months on two big Transformers I can say Brave (or any) Max and Liokaiser. I really cant imagine spending that much again on any one or two pieces. I think I'll be returning to my a max of 50 pounds for any one TF. Max is the only figure thats really warrants more than that to me and the MP line but only including shipping.

Well, the running tally from my latest round of eBaying came to more than I was expecting- between that and Karl and Shockprowl's requests for other BTs and such I'll be coming up on the magic number. Since my philosophy regarding Paypal funds is "what happens online, stays online" I should be able to provide an itemised list of exactly what I'd spend such an amount on!
Not, like, by next week or anything. Eventually.

Hmm...first I have to get my head around how much 500 GBP is since it's not the currency I use on a daily basis...(checks xe.com...ah...ok).... And I HAVE TO buy only Transformers? I'd probably go fishing for MISB Japanese Victory Transformers, Black Zarak...that kind of stuff... Definitely would spend it on something normally "out of reach" rather than on a large lot of things that I would acquire over time anyways. Either that...or I might go fishing for all of the BW II and Neo toys I don't have yet...and Car Robots while we're at it... heh can't decide It would depend on what's available and out there at the time. dyrl

You could get a woman for 5 hours for £500 (or 7 days if you shop around). No, wait. What was the question again?

whats wrong with women's underwear? you may find it enjoyable, it wouldn't be gay at all

I confine my enjoyment of women's underwear to being something that women wear.
