#2 and #5 for me. More often than not I prefer the Takara-Tomy version of the Hasbro releases.

Re: What kind of collector are you?

I am not sure where I fit in but I am new to the collection world first off and I only collect Transformers. As for what TF's I collect well I have searched the toy-lines that intrest me the most and I collect the ones that spark my main intrest I have already have a small collection of 60 + and growing each and every day. The lines that I collect are.

Animated
Alternators/Binaltech
Classics/Universe/Generations
Masterpiece
Movieverse

Most of my Collection is Hasbro but I do own a couple of Takara BT's so I know that Takara does good work and would love to collect more but the Wifey hates it when I spend alot on TF's and I figure if I get Hasbro I can get more as if I got Takara I would have way less.

I also collect Various lines of my Faveorite Characters and they are.

Soundwave
Optimus Prime
Grimlock
Rodimus
Jazz
Skids

Re: What kind of collector are you?

I am #5 and #9... like to collect most versions of Optimus and Starscream, and am a bit completist on Animated and Movieverse. Outside of those I am #10 with everything else at the moment. I've been collecting for over 2 years and have about 200 figs now.

Re: What kind of collector are you?

I love the G1 TF's but because that set is complete I would have to go with #3 because I like the bigger TF's like the MP's, it reminds me of being a kid with the size comparison.

Re: What kind of collector are you?

I get a figure because I like it, that's it. I also get a bit from each line and class which is appealing to me.
