    When I get my upcoming Junkion sales thread going, you'll see a pretty good list of this. For now a preview will have to do: Alternators Ravage

    Ratchet??? Seriously???

    My one regret was getting all those legend class toys, since there's no point in getting them and the standard deluxe and voyagers, despite the awesome stop motion I made with them.

    I also regret Universe Classics Galvatron. Prime describes the toy perfectly in Revenge of the fallen.

    stupid hasbro 25th reissue prime

    thank god I found someoen who was willing to trade me a first edition hasbro reissue prime, for the 25th one.

    the pink bugged the hell out of me, and he wanted the voice box, so we just traded :p 

    also, yellow movie rampage I wish I never bought, and ended up basically giving him away for next to nothing to someone on here with some other bots i didn't want.

    Universe Stormcloud. The strong alt mode isn't enough to make up for what to me is a damn fugly robot mode. The chest and arms are particularly ridiculous. It wasn't cheap either :(

    If its 1 figure, its a toss-up between MP Megs (my first toy to suffer from cosmic rust) and G1 Predaking (big and cumbersome). Other than that, it would be most of the Armada, Energon line! LOL!

    The masterpiece prime I bought on ebay, not because the figure isn't awesome but rather how bad the condition of the figure was in...

    When the first movie came out, I bought Legends Class Bee and Barricade (this was because I didn't really collect at the time and just wanted a Transformer toy). When I went home and realized just how much of a piece of crap they were, I went right back out and bought Deluxe Class Bee and Barricade. From there on out, no more super-cheapies. I couldn't even tell you where those two Legends are now. And I've bought about 30+ Deluxe/Voyager figs since.

    I just got a Legends class Bee on Ebay. Do you think he'll be worth the .01 I paid for him? I guess the one Transformer I regret buying goddamn CYBERTRON BACKSTOP. The toy reached dangerous suck levels. We'll on July 4th I blew him up with fireworks :)

    Well, hell, if were going down that road, a G1 Mixmaster I bought recently off eBay was in crap/junker shape after being described as very nice.:banghead: 

    Luckily I didn't pay that much for him.

    TFTM Bonecrusher ugly, small, lame
    Cybertron Skywarp, crappy mold does nothing for me
    ROTF Mudflap and Skids even in the movie asthetics they look terrible

    I think those are the only REGRETS I dislike other figures but don't really regret them...

    All the Armada junk I bought back in the day. Want to get rid of it all, Armada actually really really sucked. Also most of the Energon Autobots, the whole combiner gimmick ruined them.
