TF1 2007 Optimus Prime is one of my favorite TF toys. There something really iconic about it to me when i think of the movies

 

- "Dustfree"dom is the right of all sentient beings.

Yeah my cleaning lady is afraid of touching them. i on the other hand, am just that lazy.

 

I have only Movieverse toys and I don't want others!

 

I remember when this was my entire TF collection. My how it's grown.


Seekers new and old:



I've repurposed Protoform SS as a WfC/FoC somethingorother (Starwheeze, maybe?), but he's technically a Movieverse figure so here he goes.
... I ought to glue his thumb back on...

 

Movieverse stuff isn't really my bag, but there are plenty of good toys. In the 'on-screen' variety, ROTF Optimus Prime ('specially with the Buster Op Japanese paint job) is one of the most impressive toys ever made in the history of ever. I really like DOTM Bumblebee (swap for Nitro-Bee's head and it's great!) and both the leader and deluxe Starscream molds (hate that design, so why do I like those toys? ) Add in the extras like NEST/HFTD/so on, and there's plenty good ones, though I'll admit to preferring the more 'classicsy' stuff, like Bludgeon and Hubcap.

 

One more for the day:

 

I would love to have that little Hot Wheels-sized Optimus with his trailer. And the Bumblebee as well....and the Jetwing Prime...and the Striker Prime. UGH.

I'll have to get some pics up of my movie stuff once my lightbox is finished, and I have free time.

 

That little Optimus Prime truck with trailer is very similar to a Hot Wheels but is actually a diecast vehicle from Tomica (subsidiary of Tomy or Tomy Tech, the other half of Takara) I picked up when I was in Japan. He's neat if a little drab (could have used more silver paint on his gray parts). They have a Bumblebee diecast car too but I passed on him since he's out of scale with OP.

As for Jetwing Prime, there's always the Hasbro version from Amazon, and APS-01 (Asian Premium Series) is a chromed-out painted up "Buster" version (without the buster cannon) of Striker Optimus (Asian exclusive) being released soon. The original molds are still awesome though I may pick up APS-01 too.

 

Yeah, I know, but with MP-10 coming out, and MP TC recently, and student loans, and the possibility of needing an apartment soon, I don't think I can budget it in =(

 

I always wanted the Insecticon. I've seen him at Bi-Mart, so I may get him someday.

 

I've always liked Insecticon as well. Its color scheme and design are awesome imo. They match well together

 

screw the other lines, Movieverse FTW

Can anyone post a complete collection pic?

 

Roadbuster has to be one of my favorite autobots from the Dotm line.
