I got a question for you guys. I've got about a hundred dollars to order a figure from a site. What is a big imposing 3rd party figure for about $100 and where to order ? Was hoping for assaulter or hardbone ??

I'd suggest one of the fansproject headmaster figures. Smart Robin is my favorite amongst the three released so far. Panda's suggestion for Paladin is good as well.

Just added my World's Smallest Transformer collection to my sale thread, lots of great items including chase figures and Justitoys releases, check it out!

Lots of Alternators still available too, just lowered some prices as well.

Hexatron and chaos both look so awesome. Does anyone have either what do you think of them? Maybe hexatron could go with my mp sound wave and tc.

I like collecting some Japanese transforming oddities but I've never seen these:

Transforming Voltron Camera: http://www.ufunk.net/en/gadgets/volt...o-transformer/

Transforming Famicom (NES) cartridge: http://www.ufunk.net/en/jeux-videos/...-transformers/

I may need to hunt down the Voltron...mind you they're both from the 80's. I should put up some photos of some of the weird ones I have

Hah, way cool. Although that Mario one is somehow a bit creepy... You totally should post pics of the ones you have. Reminds me of the little Slot & Pachinko machine guys I got at Retro & Relevant.

I have an old Japanese one from a series called Telecoma Warriors which did miniature transforming drink cans and snack packages which I believe actually advertised real products. Mine's a sports/energy drink can that turns into a football player-bot. Somewhere I also have a Japanese transforming roulette machine, and I think I have a miniature camera-bot. I'll have to dig them up. It's kinda why I like stuff like the Capbots...sorta ridiculous and cool at the same time

Hah, that's sweet. I don't normally go for the oddball TF releases but sometimes a unique transforming robot is too fun to pass up, especially if it's cheap.

Hey Bob, You remember 黄金戦士ゴールド・ライタン? Only in the 80's where you can sell toys that encourage smoking. LOL.
