All TT MPs except Shockwave (and reissues of figures that I already own). I won't list 3P purchases because that would take forever. It's hard to say for sure with 3P because the final product can vary from the initial renders/prototypes. Most definitely will be getting Spinout though. Thinking about getting a Reflector, maybe KFC's but I'm not sure.
Literally the only ones I have are pre-orders on BBTS for MP Ironhide and MP Shockwave. Otherwise, I mostly play it by ear. I don't see it changing in the coming year either.
I'm just going with "too much" I've been trying to convince myself that I have plenty of TFs and don't need anymore.... Then I come on this site, see all the glory everywhere and tell myself "eh.. the preorders can stay. it's only a few more figures.... a month... forever"
Third party Hun-gurrr to finish Abominus Hardhead Skullcruncher Galvatron Leader Skywarp Chopshop Cw Ironhide Cw Trailbreaker Club exclusive Ruckus Depending on how the year goes I may splash out on the third party Technobots (Quantron) and Monstructor Oh and Lone Wolf
For me, it's also knowing that I'll save $20-30 or more sometimes by preordering them. So in my mind I'm saving money later by spending it now...
I was just going to ask what the advantage of preordering is. So they tend to be cheaper that way? Any past examples? Thanks, I'm new to this game.
I said I would buy only some CW in 2015 and at the end bought even 3P! The next year I will try not getting any Transformers! I will try to enjoy all my collection and quench my thirst reading Transformers stories.
I admire your willpower, I could never hold out like that. I'm doing okay, thus far, and sticking to my plans of 2016 being mainly MP. I was going to double dip on TT MP10, but I have Hasbro MP10 YOTH Prime. I may be one of a very few who actually really like my YOTH (except for that ugly clear trailer. I wonder if I can just spray paint that thing, or buy just a loose TT MP10 trailer). So really, the only ones I have left to double up on are MPs Smokescreen and Bee. With all the reissues, I'm wondering if we'll soon see Smokey reissued at some point.
Cutting way back in '16, went overboard with CW in '15. Might pick up Victorion, a set of PE feet for her and Bruticus. Titans Return pass, not liking headmasters.
MP Hot Rod MP Magnus Titans Return Galvatron CW Legends Shockwave I dont really care about getting onslaught, my brother got me cyclonus for my birthday earlier this year and I think that that mold is the best damn combiner torso out of all of them, doesnt lean, I didn't have to buy new hip ratchets for it, etc Combiner wars was fun, but I spent entirely too much money on it, but at least i got defensor, menasor, and 4/5ths of bruticus out of it. Edit: Just looked at the TR Galvatron photos again....I think I may be getting DX9's offering afterall
well, i paid off my cloud 9 shockwave preorder already so it looks like MP soundwave, igear van bros and some older classics are all that's in the cards. and ramjet...
Getting MP Tracks MP Shockwave Maybe Getting MP Optimus Primal 3P upgrades for MPs And if I like the look of any unannounced MPs, I'll get them too. Have fun, all!
I'm considering getting Transistor. Those who have him, is he worth the price being asked for him? I do have G1 Blaster, but I'd love to have a second Blaster (since TT probably won't make him for awhile yet).
I would say I'm gonna buy it all, but honestly so much of my money has been going to Star Wars and the new Bionicle stuff that I kinda forgot we're supposed to get a shit ton of good toys this year :/ might be time for me to get a job, lol.
Good plan, and it's the same as mine, relatively speaking. I'll probably end up punting Ironhide for just a but, as I need to take care of Ramjet first. Still might be doable. Not listing 3rd party here, but I'll have to punt a few of those as well for just a little while.
Confirmed and pre-ordered: January - MP Ironhide February - MP Hot Rod March - MP Shockwave April - MP Ratchet To be pre-ordered the moment it goes up: MP Optimus Primal This is a bumper year for me. I think I only purchased Legends Blackarachnia in 2015!
