    Too much. And with christmas its going to be harder. Too bad when you collect transformers its a difficult thing to put on any sort of christmas wish list. Things you'd look for are usually hard to find and random to count on someone else finding for you.

    I can think of 4 on your list that will more than likely not see release till next year (Ratchet, Hound/Ravage, Cyclonus/Nightstic, and Hotshot/Jolt). Unless you plan on going with Takara's versions, then you'll be able to get Ratchet sometime this year. Also, updated my list to reflect what's currently on my to-get list.

    I'll definitely be getting the following:

    I'm sure I'll buy more than that, but those are the ones that I'm really looking forward to.

    Plastic Voltron? Please don't tell me you mean the Voltron Lion set with the figures that go inside the lions!

    The Masterpiece Voltron is by far the most impressive Volton out there.
