    I officially stopped keeping track back in August. I tried to set a limit on how much I spent, but that lasted about a month. I only have MPs Road Rage and Clamp Down left this year.

    While I'm not going to set a spending limit for 2016, I am streamlining what I buy. I'm going to stick to mainly Masterpiece collecting. I've already set aside extra funds for non-MP goodies, like G2 Combiners, finishing up previous cartoon collections (Animated, Prime, Adventure), and collectibles of specific characters (Swipe, Jazz, Sunny).

    So far, March 2016 is my most expensive month:
    MP Shockwave
    MP Ramjet
    MP Ratchet (he's listed as March/April)
    E-Hobby Deadlock

    How much have you spent on Transformers toys this year?

    I saw another poster that said he spent around $1,500 on Transformers this year, and I thought, "Wow! That's a lot!" Then, I thought about all the MP's and CW's I purchased this year, and my number might not be too far off from theirs. Here are my purchases this year:

    Hasbro MP-10 - $165
    MP Ultra Magnus - $160
    Hasbro MP Bluestreak - $50
    MP G2 Bumblebee - $45
    MP Exhaust - $38
    Hasbro MP Starscream x2 - $110
    MP Tracks - $44

    MP Wheeljack KO - $30
    MP Ratbat KO - $12

    CW SDCC Devastator - $200
    CW Jetfire - $40
    CW Megatron - $40

    Pre-Orders
    MP Ironhide - $59
    MP Shockwave - $99
    MP Hot Rod - $47

    It's not quite $1,500, but some of the numbers didn't include shipping, so it's close to $1,200 and I didn't even realize it! How much have you spent on TF's this year?

    whatever i spent, it was way too much because i have a really limited budget.

    probably around 1500 bucks i'd say if i can include 3rd party stuff, maybe closer to 2 grand

    Got Windblade and UW Devestator to end the year so I finished 2015 at $1915. It was nice to keep it under 2K this year.

    Edit- Badcube Sunsurge dropped into my PoL, so I just creeped up over 2K at $2020. Just slightly better that the $2023 I spent last year but not as good as the $1761 I spent in 2013. 2016 doesn't look to be much better with all the MPs and 3rd Party stuff already scheduled.

    Well, this looks like it's it for 2015 for me. An expensive year, but was able to sell a lot of old stuff off to pay for and make room for the new stuff. At least next year will be just MP TF's (including a few FT) for me as far as TF's go.

    This year I have spent just shy of £350 as far as I am aware. This is roughly around $500

    This year I have spent just shy of £350 as far as I am aware. This is roughly around $500. The total also includes shipping costs as well as the purchase of a poster/photo print for my MP display and TF Devastation for PS3.

    Resistance was futile with CW and ended up buying Hasbro CW Superion and Powerglide as well as Hot Spot and Groove.

    The rest of the spend was on MPs and their pre-orders.
