Due to my very small budget and space available for a Transformers collection, can you help me decide which of the two incarnations of Optimus Prime I should keep? This choice is for the final piece in my collection. I have both loose in hand and don't know what to do!
Option 1 (Powermaster Optimus Prime):
- Takara Tomy Legends LG-EX God Ginrai (Leader Super Ginrai and Leader Godbomber)
Option 2 (Assemble the lot for "Sonic Wing Dual Savage Claws Mode" Optimus Prime, with one cat left over):
- Cybertron Leader Optimus Prime
- Cybertron Ultra Wing Saber
- Cybertron Voyager Leobreaker
- Cybertron Voyager Nemesis Breaker
- Universe Voyager Leo Prime / Lio Convoy
Please let me know which one you'd pick in the poll above!
To help with the decision, the rest of my meagre collection is listed below:
- Thrilling 30 Titan Metroplex
- Combiner Wars Titan Devastator
- Power of the Primes Volcanicus (Dinobots) + Slash
- Power of the Primes Abominus (Terrorcons)
- Combiner Wars Leader Megatron + DX9 upgrade
- Titans Return Leader Sixshot
Pictures are provided to see how the figure fits with the most of the collection (Sixshot and Abominus still boxed). For the Cybertron lot, poor Nemesis Breaker is left out of the combo again.
How to combine the Cybertron lot can be found here:

I essentially used some of the cash I got from selling my childhood G1 collection to buy these, as I dreamed about the posability of the modern figures as a child. It took a while to convince my wife to go along with this.
