    Hello all..

    Just moved to a new home. Gonna be here for about 7 years i estimate.not a ton of room for my transformers here. Probably 3 detolfs max. comtemplating selling some of my higher ticket stuff that takes up tons of space, such as the human alliance line. Anyone sold off their human alliances and missed them? Itd be a good chunk of change since I have jazz and barricade but not sure i can sell them. Thoughts

    There weren't that many HA figures and they are also some of the best figures to come from the movie line, so I'd hold onto them.

    HA's currently are not higher ticket stuff any more. Mudfalp and Barricade are selling for not much more than origional retail, Soundwave is ~$50 shipped MISB and everything elces is much less. Hang on to them or wait to sell until the 4th movie is out.

    I agree with this. The HA figures are better than the deluxe versions.

    The HA's are going to be the very last movie figures I would let go of in my collection.

    #1 Tip when selling TF toys in your collection. Sell the TF toys you hate the most. won't miss & you view inderior to the rest. Sell stuff you out grew & no longer like.

    Never sell the TF toys you love the most,sell those dead last.

    Ive always thought of HAs as semi-masterpiece toys, in that they are typically a lot more detailed, more complex, bigger, and have more paint apps. And they, for the most part, were more screen accurate.
