A mix of Classics, Masterpieces, Bayverse, Prime, Legends, 3rd Party, custom and kitbashed figures plus other odds, bits, and ends. My display cases are in a current state of flux as I get new cabinets and rearrange stuff. Some of the pictures are fairly old (particularly the shelf displays) but I'll update as I find the time to do so! Enjoy! Updated my main Masterpiece shelf displays with BadCube Brawny and Backland, X-Transbot Glider and Ollie, Generations Warpath, FansToys Soar, and Keith's Fantasy Club Transistor and HiFi: Latest Masterpiece display with the additions of MP-20 Wheeljack, MP-21 Bumblebee, and MP-22 Ultra Magnus: Main display cabinet (with sliding glass door): Classics Autobots Seasons 1-2: Mixed Decepticons: Transformers Prime On-Screen Characters: Top of main display cabinet: Main Bayverse display: The "Big Three" of Dark of the Moon: Takara Tomy DA-28 Striker Optimus Prime with DOTM Deluxe OP (alt mode) and Cyberverse Commander OP (bot mode): Custom painted DOTM Leader Sentinel Prime with DOTM Voyager SP (alt mode) and Cyberverse Commander SP (bot mode): Custom DOTM Leader Megatron (by Forgotten Forest) with DOTM Voyager Megs (alt mode) and Cyberverse Commander Megs (bot mode):

Thanks, much appreciated! My main display cabinet has changed quite a bit since that last picture as I have two more glass shelves on the way. I'll try to update with new photos when I find the time, especially since a few more custom figures I've acquired have entered the picture too.
That is an impressive collection! Love the customs! btw what did you use for wildrider's feet and motormaster's head? That caught my eye when i looked at those. Great idea
Thanks, glad you like! I also love my customs and just recently acquired a more screen accurate (and non-transforming) HFTD Leader Starscream. Hopefully it arrives soon so I can display him next to my custom DOTM Leader Megatron. I'm also in the middle of customizing/kibtashing my Human Alliance Soundwave with additional leg parts to make him taller and hopefully more screen accurate with the silver paint. As for Wildrider and Motormaster, thanks, much appreciated! You can find additional pictures of them here -- http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/991791-tf-prime-wildrider-chug-conversion-wip.html -- and in my signature link (and a how-to for the foot parts to make Arms Micron Wildrider taller so he'll fit better with Classics). I didn't create the custom Motormaster but I did give him the weapons he's holding plus fixed his neck joint (the custom head is from Shapeways, I believe). I have a Classics Breakdown on the way to me (just shipped my BBTS PoL) so I just need to figure out what to do for a Dead End stand-in. I know that there's the Generations Menasor combiner being released next year in 2015 (which I'll most likely pick up for combined mode) with a pretty decent looking Dead End but I'd still like to create/acquire one that fits the bigger/taller Classics size point of the older Deluxes.
Thanks, just looked at them! It was very informative and I appreciate the honesty. Those are definitely great display pieces. As for classics breakdown, i can see him fitting nicely with wildrider, dragstrip, and motormaster. Hopefully a third party will tackle the new generations stunticons successfully! I like the combine mode too; however, the individual bot modes are what catches my eye. Can't wait!
Thanks, much obliged! He is indeed awesome and the crown jewel of my Bayverse collection (though the FWI-4 jetwing upgrade on DA-28 Striker Optimus may change this). I have a custom HFTD Leader Starscream on the way soon that I plan to display right next to Megs for double the fun. Will post pictures once I get him in-hand! EDIT: My latest acquisition! Custom HFTD Leader Starscream (with FWI-01 Alien Jet upgrade kit), built and painted by frogDNA (photos also taken by frogDNA):

Custom Motormaster (with Shapeways head, AM-33 Megatron's Dark Calibur sword, and iGear's CC rifle): Characters (sans Teletraan-1) voiced by Casey Kasem (custom Classics Cliffjumper with Beelzeboss guns, Dr. Wu's "The Dr. Of Evil" aka Dr. Arkeville, and MP-18 Streak with Amazon.jp shoulder rockets):
FansToys Quakewave (Shockwave) and ArtFeather Bumblebee (modded backpack): "Prepare for termination!"
Thanks, much appreciated! Yeah, Soundwave's tentacles are actually made from the waist piece of a KO Classics Mirage (after it broke, I just salvaged it for parts) and the tentacles from Solidus Snake (Spawn Toys' Metal Gear Solid 2). The tentacles just plug into the KO Mirage's hip ball joints, and the whole thing pegs into the hole in Soundwave's butt.
