BB Optimus in my opinion is one of the best voyager class figures I've ever seen! I was on the fence for a while too but his transformation is complex enough to be used on a Leader class fig. Also he has the movie matrix in his chest

I have both Alternity OP and BB OP and I opened both of them last month. Both are great figures and I plan to keep both for a long time. the Battle Blade OP does have that look of cheap plastic and that doesn't improve out of the box... but transformation and posability both pretty good.

Nice haul, I recently gained a few generations and HftD figures I didn't yet have. As for the G1 Optimus, does it have a slot in the little square of plastic on the back? If so, it's the reissue, if not, it's the original. God forbid, it's a knock off, but it's sadly possible.

Nice to see a new member on the site!

It sux that BB OP does look cheap but thanks for the tip. And I must have made a mistake because I picked up a Alternators OP not the Alternity OP I would Love to get him as well as Megs but I do own a BT OP and His Die Cast is Amazing Just Lacks a little in posability as where the Alternators OP gives me more otions. BT OP was my starting point for my Collection and I just love the mold I do want Nemisis as well sometime

not sure which "post your hauls" this would belong in.if it's wrong,please move

went to liquidation world yesterday and found a bunch of tf themed sippy cups and aluminum water bottle including...

animated megs
animated prime
rotf bee and prime
animated megs(water bottle)

the neat thing is the bottom of the sippy cups have a mini snowglobe kinda thing with spinning autobot/decepticon faction logos.

They're stamped with dates, the original will have 198X stamped on it.

Get the Takara version with hooks if you have the money. Looks better with the grey parts replacing the random copper-ish ones.

I would if I ordered on-line or if Woodstock had a decent place to get Tomy TF's or if I knew of a place close by maybe like London or K-W. Either Way I folded and picked up BB OP haven't taken him out of box yet. Now I need an enemy for him I was thinking Banzaitron his wave mate but maybe Payload/Longhaul will look cool Fighting OP
