    This is a story I'm sure every collector has gone through. You're messing around with a figure, not really paying attention. You set it down and go do something else. Then when you come back to it, you notice that something is missing.

    This has just happened to me with my classics Rodimus's gun/exhaust. I know it's somewhere around my armchair, I just need to find it.

    Anyone else wanna share their stories of missing pieces?

    Exactly what happened with my universe sunstreaker gun. I was fiddling with him in my room, set the piece down somewhere, and even after searching the entire room I can't find it.

    I would, but the stories are so numerous and boring. Fortunately, most of the things I've "lost" have only been misplaced, and I find them later. I'm still scarred for life, though :(

    One of those triangle foot things in Uni Galvatron's backpack. Still can't find it.

    At a glance, I was scared after I read this, then I realized it was written by the same person who lost the part......sorry:drunk

    hasnt happened with a transformers recently but there must be some knid of black hole in my house because occasionally something else will go missing and never be found. could be something silly or something valuable, couple of months ago my digital camera just up sticks and vanished before that one of my dvds and some clothes too. and it's not that i misplaced them or anything, everything in my house has its place and i know where everything is, they simply vanished.

    HFTD Tomahawk's missiles. They are almost the exact same color as my carpet. They take forever to find. It doesn't help that they are extremely sensitive, so they go off if I look at it the wrong way. I ended up just removing them.

    One of TFA Black Rodimus' missiles is missing. I know it's somewhere in the toyroom, and I looked every corner, no sign of it. Similar thing happened to Energon Sixshot's missile, and in spite of its size, I couldn't find it for a few years. Very strange.
