G1 Parts Dealer?

This year in the dealer room on the immediate right wall coming in through the entrance there was a seller with tons and tons of G1 parts. Who were they and do they have an online presence?

I’ve just acquired a G1 collection with figures in great shape but no accessories. Protectobots, Combaticons figures but nothing else. An Optimus prime with great joints but no hands, gun or trailer. An almost complete Trypticon missing just fulltilt’s gun and the grey antenna bits. A skylynx with two broken legs.

I’ve checked eBay and the prices are stupid.

I know who you're talking about but not sure if he has an online store.

Disagree about scorponok87. I did a trade with him and it was a miserable experience. He has parts, but he doesn't seem to have the time to send them to people he owes.

I agree. Took over a month to ship after I paid. First time I considered leaving bad feedback but in the end I got the stuff but can't say it was a pleasant experience

I know the guy you mean (not by name though), his booth has been invaluable for me padding out my Action Masters (got my whole Gutcruncher's jet from him few years back)

I was a bit bummed that he doesn't carry much/if any non-G1 stuff, I bought a CW Megatron MIB online once and the red cannon projectile included was a fake that didn't even fit inside the cannon
I thought, this is exactly the type of thing buddy @ TFCon would have in his tubs (nope)

Re: G1 Parts Dealer?

I don’t buy G1 stuff, but I did ask for a business card from that table. His friend whom was looking after it said they are from New York State and just look him up on eBay under user PrimeTarget08.

Hope that helps.

Re: G1 Parts Dealer?

His name is Russ.I dealt with him for years at TFCOnsHe deals primarily in G1 only although he will have some odd figures from other lines such as armada unicron or rid brave max but no parts/weapons.You're probably better off waiting for another show so you can grab in bulk and he'll cut you some kind of a deal as he often does with me.There's not much he can do over ebay and the individual prices of several items combined would be murder.

Re: G1 Parts Dealer?

I sent an ebay message to primetarget08 and yes, he's Russ, the one selling the G1 parts at TFCon Toronto. He's got some parts for sale but they're too much for my blood.

Buying the parts individually will be expensive so I think I'll hold off on that until I can somehow get back to TFCon.

I wonder if I could just get a KO Defensor for the parts but then again I'd have a bunch of KO figures I won't know what to do with. Or just sell the originals and get the KO. Any idea of how the KO quality is?
