How many XYZ toys do you own?

[Philip Ayres]

Yeah I knew I was going to have more Megatrons but was surprised at how many I had....

Found another Prime while doing the Megatron list which took me over 50 Primes!

[Benn]

Lessee...

Takara boxed g1 reissue
Henkei classics
Masterpiece

And I think that's it. Maybe Animated Leader class, but I suspect I've sold him on. Ditto with the Classics two pack green tank Megs.

[Shockprowl]

Err, oooh, not too many Megatrons... 3P Hegemon serves me well in 'Classics'. Original Beast Wars T-rex. The original Legends, two of. A G1/The Transformers Junker (I like it how we're trying to say 'The Transformers' instead og 'G1' now!). Aaaaand that's it!


Untill another unofficial Megatron representation arrives....

[The Doctor]

I have had many Megatrons but am currently down to:

Action Master Megs.
Jap book style re-issue Megs with all the gubbins.
RTS Legends Megs.

If you ever decide to move it on please give me first refusal!

*adds to mental list of items to look out for on behalf of TMUKers*

-Nick

[legios]

Megatrons... Hmm. I want to say that I am down to four (I know I've got the reissue, two different Legends-sized ones and I may still have the Classics NerfMavericktron, but I'm actually going to have to go and check this because I'm not entirely certain).

Karl

[The Doctor]

Oops! Just remembered that I still have Decoy Optimus Prime and Decoy Megatron!

-Ralph

[Toph]

For someone who doesn't give a crap about the stunticons, I own a surprising amount of Breakdowns.

G1
RotF
G2 Redux
Animated
Timelines subscription
Combiner Wars
Fansproject

And for that matter, why the hell IS breakdown so popular for Hasbro?
Some make sense (the three Fun pubs, cw), but hasbo has done a ton of breakdown homages, and they're not always named breakdown.
I mean, he's the least memorable stunticon. Yet he gets most of the homages and updated.

[Philip Ayres]

Easy repaint: do a Lambo and have him repainted as Breakdown. Ditto race cars and Dragstrips.

We'll do another of these this coming week with another familiar character.

[Toph]

Except most aren't lambos, and more than a fair few aren't repaints.

[Philip Ayres]

Ok this week: How many toys called Bumblebee do you own?

[Shockprowl]

Hmm not many, but more than I thought I had. 5. Masterpiece, Classics, two versions of the old Legends, and the new Legends. Oh and a 3P one, the Impossible toys one.

I have moved on '07 concept Camaro 'Bee and the Human Alliance versions.

Don't think I've ever owned the Pretender 'Bee. Might have to rectify that if I ever see him.

Oh, and the original Prime version might be kicking around somewhere. Can't remember if I tried to shift him at the last AA I was at...

[Pinwig]

I didn't do Megatron. Should have done as it isn't many.

Beast Wars Ultra
Beast Wars Transmetal Mega
Beast Wars Transmetal 2 Ultra
Armada Giga
Energon Leader
Animated (Earth mode)
Beast Hunters Voyager

Bumblebee I have more of than I thought I would because he isn't a character I like an awful lot. Nothing pre-Animated because... well, he's rubbish.

Animated Deluxe
Animated Hydro drive Jet Pack
Beast Hunters Deluxe
Beast Hunters Night Shadow
Predacons Rising Nova Blast Deluxe

I'm probably missing quite a few movie Bees thats I bought from car boot sales or just have otherwise blended together. I know I have or had a lot of different legends.

[Marc Graham]

I haven't listed my animated bees, probably getting some Robots in disguise ones soon too.... Oops

[Llama God]

Wow. Now this is interesting. People seem to have more Bumblebees than Optimus Primes. But then, I shouldn't be too surprised - much as I love Prime (and boy, I do), I idolise him more than I identify with. Bumblebee, on the other hand, was the character I identified with as a kid. Which... is why I have so few Bumblebees these days. Because the Movieverse "Bumblebee" is not *my* Bumblebee. I feel even more betrayed with his depiction than I do with Prime's...

But I probably digress. Here's what I have:

G1 Keychain (yeah, never got bought the original, despite repeated asks)
Goldbug (yes OF COURSE he counts)
Pretender
Action Master
Classics
Animated Activator
Movie 1 1970 Camaro
Movie 1 2007 Camaro
Prime Legends (er... The predominantly black one)
Construct-Bots (non-triple-changer)
Generations Legends IDW-esque version
Masterpiece

Huh. So only 12 of my joint favourite character. I own more Megatrons. Interestingly, though, despite the fact that I'll get any and all Optimus Primes out of a sense of deranged completeness, I've been a lot more picky about Bumblebee. As I was putting that list together I wondered why I didn't have the HTFD Legends 'Bee, or Alternity 'Bee, and I think... It's just because I didn't like them. I'm actually a lot more choosy, and I only pick the ones that really say "Bumblebee" to me. Which, really, have only been Classics and Masterpiece. None of the others matter.

I've been learning a lot about myself recently. But that I did not know...

So does Hasbro, to be fair.

[Llama God]

Ooooooooooooooooooooooooooohhhh. I think Hasbro's short-sighted brand manager is going to need some ice for that burn..!

(It's funny and it's sad because it's true.)

[Pinwig]

And most Toys R Us shops.

[Philip Ayres]

34 now! I had to get stuff out the cupboard tonight to return Metroplex's long lost missile, found down the back of the shoebox, to him.

In the process I got the Minibot box out.....

and discovered an 1984 BB with Rubsign that I'd missed!

[Shockprowl]

You missed a1984 BB with rubsign?!?!!! What kind of a Monster are you ?!?!?!!!

[Philip Ayres]

A monster with two other versions of the same mould!

I didn't get the box out the count them.

[legios]

Bumblebee... Hmmm. Again, the answer is "less than I used to" having shed the Animated one, and the Movie cyberverse ones a while back:-

"The Transformers" Bumblebee (Minibot)
Goldbug
G2 Bumblebee
Classics Bumblebee
