    As little as possible, totally depends on what MP's are announced.

    I can't really say. I'm planning on picking up enough for at least one combiner.

    Be sure to include the link to 2014 in your first post NotRamjet97!

    http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-toy-discussion/969621-how-much-you-spending-2014-a.html

    Between Transformers, comics, Hot Toys, and other "hobby" purchases, I clocked in over $4,600. That's more than what I wanted and anticipated spending. For 2015 I'm reducing my budget to about $3,000. I also want to accurately track how much of that budget comes from me selling toys. In 2014 not all of the money I used for hobby purchases came from my work income.

    I'm going to spend less this year because I'm not going to be as impulsive in my buying. After grabbing Jetfire the second I saw him, then watching him go on sale for half a few months later, I learned to wait.

    I think this year, I'm limiting myself to only Masterpiece figures and Hot Toys Optimus Prime. I'm hoping to hit under 8-1000, but we'll see how that pans out.

    Let's see... I am getting at least two voyagers and 8 deluxes (to get the first two combiners). That would put me at... around $170 bucks. Now, if the Masquerade set looks good, I'll grab that set, so that is another 85 dollars. My HOPE is we get some great standalone figures that don't combine (please Nautica... please Nautica...). So I could see about 250 to 300 bucks being spent this year.

    Well, this year I spent €463 on Transformers figures. I'm kind of hoping to keep it below that this year, but with Combiner Wars actually being released at retail here, I'm tempted by Superion, which would be €110 for the voyager and four deluxes, so already it's looking unlikey :lol 

    If Generations leader Magnus turns out to be a real thing, and he ends up looking good, I'll probably end up getting him too. Other than that though, there isn't a whole lot I really want so far this year

    I know I am over 4k this year. But I had a bunch of catching up.

    MP-22 - paid
    Brawny- $87 (come on already BBTS)
    CW Superion- paid -minus Skydive - $18
    Generations Bombshell- paid
    Generations Powerglide- paid
    Either DX9 or MMC Mirage - $85-$100?
    KFC Transistor (hopefully a non-metallic repaint) - $140
    Omnigonix Suntreaker- $100+ (guessing)

    Looks like I'm under $500 for the year so far.
    Let's see what Has/Tak shows at Toy Fair in February. Not likely anything shown after that will come out in 2015.

    Not much I think. Off the top of my head:

    - Apollyon
    - Sever
    - Fanstoys' Not-Sludge (unless it's bumped to 2016)
    - MP Wheeljack KO
    - MP Bumblebee KO

    I'm already at $500 worth of preorders, so if I can keep it under $1500 I'll be ecstatic. But I did just spend(and spend, and spend) the last two years playing Masterpiece catch up and nearly completed my WFC/FOC collection as well. As far as already released figures go I only really need MP Smokescreen, the Optimus/Megatron Darkside set and WFC Infiltrator(Ghost) Starscream. So I assume I should be OK. An MP every three months I can handle, one a month was getting a bit overwhelming.

    I honestly have no idea. It will depend on what MP figures are coming out as I've pretty much resolved to focus exclusively on the MP line going forward. Right now only Exhaust and Star Saber are on my plate and I don't really count them as I paid for both in 2014.
