    Thanks Guys! :)  When I think of how many of my TFs I considered my "holy grails" & that I never actually thought I'd see them in the flesh (let alone own them), and now I have every single one of my holy grails ticked off my list & in my possession. Yeah, that feeling of contentment is a nice one. :) 

    Oh & now it numbers in the region of 620. :lol 

    My newest arrivals are a Heero Thundercracker & Skywarp...

    Thanks Guys! :)  & it might finally be time for another long-overdue update... :lol

    My Alt/Binaltech/Alternity shelves had room for one more - Grimlock became the chosen one!

    & the real reason why I had to get my hands on a Classics Magnificus...

    [​IMG]

    [​IMG]

    Ever since I acquired my original Fort Max, He kept telling me that he needed one more thing to be truly complete - he needed a master sword. He told me he didn't want a repro master sword - he wanted a genuine one. An official one. So he directed me to Ebay, we found him an Encore sword & Fort Max still won't crack a smile... :lol

    & being that my main shelves are completely full, I had no choice but to acquire yet another display case for my latest arrivals... It never ends! :eek:  (& I've already changed this display since taking these pics...)

    & I also found this guy on Ebay. He's a 1984 Takara Mecha Warrior (or a Pre-G1 Mini-spy). I took quite a few pics of him but I don't want to overload this page with another "pic-mountain" so I'll try to keep him short & sweet... :lol

    Whoa! I can't believe it's been some 7 months since I last posted updates in this thread... Talk about being slack... :eek: 

    Anyway, Thanks Guys! @Brr-Icy - My tastes have become more broader than just G1. If I find something that I like (& I can afford it), Why not? :lol 

    Today's update includes both TF & non-TF related acquisitions...

    This little guy arrived just the other day. From the Takatoku line, he's named Bonaparte Tulcas, the little brother of Mugen Calibur & Ovelon Gazzette.
