How many XYZ toys do you own?

[Pinwig]

I fear this may be an ineffectively short list of Prowls, but I would at least argue it's tactically precise and worthy of the Shockprowl accolade of Prowlnosity.

Prowl (the original, owned since '85 and this one for once I remember buying).
Beast Wars Prowl (the one that's a third of Magnaboss).
Animated Deluxe.
Animated Elite Guard Deluxe (The Japanese exclusive white one, love this).
Beast Hunters Deluxe with Repro Labels overload.
Takara Masterpiece with two Amazon launchers.

[Shockprowl]

Well I'm hardly blown away....


But it's a good selection so- PASS!

[Shockprowl]

Soundwave! Love Soundwave.

Action Master

6" Titanium x2
Animated
ROTF
FoC Voyager
Masterpiece

Did own Cybertron but moved it on some years ago. I liked Soundwave as a spy-plane though.

[Bogatan]

Oh forgot about Nappyman.

Did have big Cybertron Soundwave, but don't know if I sold it.

[Llama God]

Ah, Soundwave, Soundwave, Soundwave. How I loved Soundwave. And never had the G1 original. I was so excited when I went on holiday to France in 1990 and discovered this line of figures called "Action Masters" which were affordable... And so:

Action Master
Animated
Cybertron Voyager
Prime Legends
Music Label
Masterpiece

I still don't have the G1 Soundwave. But I do have the Masterpiece version, and I also have a version that actually plays music. So, y'know, that'll do...

[Philip Ayres]

This week:

How many Ultra Magnus toys do you own?

[Llama God]

How many? That's a question I can't deal with right now!

Oh, no, wait - yes it is. I've got a spreadsheet and everything. I'm sure the duly ppointed enforcer of the Tyrest accord would approve...

G1 Re-Issue
RiD Leader
Prime Legends
Titanium G1

And that's it. Very much a poor showing, here. But I am very much planning on getting the CW Leader very soon. And after that, I'll never need another Magnus again...

Apart from the white repaint of RTS Legends Prime. But after *that* I'll never need another Magnus...

[Philip Ayres]

Llamagod has beaten me to the good jokes. I can't deal with that right now.

Anyway, Ultra Magnus:

1) 2001 Japanese Reissue
2) RID (actually Car Robots)
3) RID Spychanger
4) Universe Spychanger
5) Battle in a Box
6) FOC
7) Prime Cyberverse Commander
8) BH Cyberverse Commander
9) Classic Legion
10) Generations Leader

The have owned list is short:

1) Energon
2) Classics
3) Titanium

Interestingly of that lot I don't miss the Classics version at all: I don't need a Magnus that big that's just a white Prime repaint especially one with the much blue on it's legs. I sort of miss the Titanium especially now I've realised it would be great with old style Legends. Bugger, going to have to get a new one. I very much miss the Energon one: I went through a "1one of each mould" phase and flogged it. Superb repaint and has a life of it's own. Fortunately it doesn't look like an expensive re-buy at the moment.

[Benn]

Um.

Just the white (well, yellowing now) classics one.

oops.

[Philip Ayres]

Oh dear, has he not aged well?

[Benn]

No, he's starting to look a bit like that Fire Convoy fellow! Although both Prowl and Mirage are too... so not sure if it's the air quality round here or the plastic.

[Shockprowl]

Ultra Magnus!

Classics with the now dated looking City Commander 3P armour. I'd never keep him without the armour though. I can't stand white Primes.

G1 6" Titanium. Beautiful figure from that oh too short lived magnificent line of lines.

My original G1... didn't make...

So a shocking 2 from me! Near me. Not cool, Shockprowl, not cool. MP is out, maybe I'll look again at CW.

[legios]

Ultra Magnus, ah. There were always going to be a few incarnations of him in my collection.

1. Diaclone Colours Ultra Magnus reissue
2. Spychanger Robots in Disguise Ultra Magnus
3. Classics Ultra Magnus (formerly Black Convoy's main sparring partner, but currently toting a pair of PCC Mini-cons as Targetmasters for proper ranged firepower)

and an honorary third member, a damaged and probably unsalvageable Car Robots God Magnus currently in pieces waiting to be picked over for salvage.

Karl

[Dezzeh]

Phil put an index in the first post. You've done weeks 1,2 and 4.

[Philip Ayres]

This week is the obvious follow up to Ultra Magnus last week.....

How many Galvatron toys do you own?

[The Doctor]

The funny coloured Japanese one that goes: "Ahahahahahahaha!"

-Ralph

[Philip Ayres]

This one tfwiki.net/wiki/Galvatron_(G1)/toys#Talkformers ?

Or the second one here tfwiki.net/wiki/Galvatron_(G1)/toys#Generation_1 ?

[Llama God]

Ahh, Galvatron. The enigmatic new leader from the future with a shocking past and an uninspiring toy that I never owned. Ah, Galvatron.

This is what I do own, though:

Energon
Universe
Kreon
Age of Exstinktion Power Attacker

Not the most comprehensive list, sure. But to my twisted mind Energon Galvatron's the best - why would I need any more..?

[Philip Ayres]

I'd argue that the smaller differently coloured Superlink Galvatron G is better!

www.bwtf.com/toyreviews/unicrontrilogy/superlink/galvatron
www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-feedback/351381-review-superlink-galvatron-general.html

And that BWII is the best!

Own

1) 1986 - aJumble sale junker, with working electronics, who's been semi patched up
2) BWII
3) Legends of Cybertron
4) Combiner Wars Galvatronus

Have Owned

1) Universe 2 - didn't hate this as much as most
2) Armada - we all must love the purple pull back cannon!
3) Superlink Galvatron (Energon Voyager Megatron)
4) Superlink Galvatron G

I see what you mean - I also have the smaller, Megatron version of that mold that came in a two-pack with Superlink Optimus. And it is a nice mold. But for Galvatron, bigger seems better. :-)
