    i bought a cheap 2nd rotf armorhide and kept his rifle to give my original one before selling him. Also bought 2 pcc figures just for the minicons, but i didnt like the minicons weapon modes. Ironically, steelshot's back cannon make a good arm cannon for my sideways.

    I bought two vintage Scorponoks for the accessories.

    I didn't just give all the accessories to one of them and then sold off the other with the duplicates, I even took him apart to switch his bodyparts for the better ones. The one I already had was in reasonably good shape apart from the tail with crooked ratchet joints which resulted in an unstable base mode, and he was pitifully short on accessories, while the other one I bought later was the opposite; only a few accessories missing but the body itself was kinda beat-up apart from the tail.

    I bought one DOTM Laserbeck just for the guns.






    Problem is them won't go in the hands of Universe Roadbuster like I planned. I ended up giving them to Classics Cliffjumper instead.
