    I traded my universe Sideswipe, Sunstreaker, and Ratchet a couple years ago. I miss them. :(  at least I still have my Ironhide and Generations Red Alert.

    Traded away a Diakron red Sunstreaker, albeit a little beat up, for all the Generations and RTS figs I was missing. Had I been patient, they all showed up at retail locally later, bar maybe Windcharger, but I could have sworn I saw him at TJ Maxx as well.

    Sold off my MISB Ultra Magnus / Skywarp boxset, along with Universe Ramjet and Starscream, just after the Botcon 2007 seeker debacle, to be able to replace them with the Henkei versions, which WOULD form a complete collection.

    City Commander was but a twinkle in a designer's eye back then, though...

    Nothing of crazy regret, but two that spring to mind:

    Alts Smokescreen & Silverstreak a few months back, still MISB. Had those guys for years taking up space, as I just never really got into Alts. Everytime I see cool pics, I kinda wish I was able to fully appreciate and enjoy 'em.

    ROTF Bruticus x 3: sold them a year ago for $35 each @ TFCon, making very little profit (a few bucks each maybe?). Sure I could've held on/scalped them bigtime, but I figured real fans would appreciate the gesture. YOU'RE WELCOME ya three lucky bastards!

    I actually owned a Generations Red Alert for a while last December, but I ended up giving it to a friend's son as a gift. I don't regret that, though.

    not a huge fan of the classics OP mold, but I do regret trading my Henkei Optimus Prime.

    I prematurely sold most of my BW collection in early 2000's , including some pretty hot BM and BW Neo bots like Galvatron , Cryotek ,magmatron. After TF1 premiered in 2007.... new local TF converts in my country were yearning for these stuff ,willing to pay good prices for anything "vintage" they can put their hands on.

    Ah well....
