    The $31 to $50 range. I bought Cybertron Leader class Optimus and Metroplex for around retail price each (Prime's shipping might have put him a little over) on eBay. Complete. XD

    I think I tied mine. $420 for Lucky Draw G1 Rodimus/Primus and somewhere around that for two of the dino tapes.

    If you count combiners, then the new reissue of Predaking for 175. If you're talking stand a lone figure, 2010 Unicron for 135.

    Well I also forgot that some more cash will be spent Nov 27th for Predaking which is 179.00 plus shipping for a total of $190. Then more then likely the 199 for the MP Rodimus prime.

    Back in 2004, 20th Anniversary Masterpiece Optimus Prime - £79. I'm not too hot on exchange rates, but I believe thats around $150. It was in a collectors shop, and no version of MP prime had been released in the UK at this point.

    Bought Armada Unicron for £60 from the Entertainer. Was pretty pissed when it was on sale in woolies 3 months later for £25!

    As you can probably gather, I'm an impatient impulse buyer! haha!

    black Zarak, Grand Maximus, and LIoKaiser were my most expensive transformers ever.

    all of them falling in the 501-1000 range, though I suppose Kiokaiser is technically more than one bot so if you devided him up, he would have been less :p

    $230 for MP04 Prime. It was only my second TF purchase as an adult (first one was the TRU Classics re-issue Soundwave) and I still can't believe I made such a huge jump. It got me into the whole collecting thing, though!

    Shortly after that, $200 for a very white G1 Jetfire. Waaay overpaid, since he was missing the gunclip AND both fender clips. Oh well, live and learn.

    £58 on the new G1 re-issue exclusive Seacon set. I'm not a big spender when it comes to toys.
