    Ok, for the sake of the thread I'll play along. My G1 Ultra Magnus because after all these years he is still in excellent shape. A pride and joy among my collection. Next would be my G1 Predaking as completing him over the years via ebay was a timely and costly endeavor.

    I would open the box that currently has most of my figures in it and start chucking other stuff in there that's sentimental to me and cannot be replaced, snap it tight and roll it out the front door.

    (Note, it's one of those flat rolling storage containers)

    So funny how people always drop the, "well toys aren't that important, I'll grab my so-and-so because that's really important."

    These threads are supposed to be fun guys...

    Let's just say some guy comes along and says hey if you were to give up all your TFs what 2 would you keep...

    my answer... the custom Jazz I made from Classics Prowl and MP Starscream because they would make a decent display that I could live with if I couldn't have anymore than 2.
    Jazz is fun to transform and really poseable and MP Starscream because of the scale compared to Jazz would look sweet, not to mention that MP Starscreams jet mode is awesome

    Same answer as ever for these threads:

    MC-13 UNCLE Megs - I'm primarily a Megs and Ratchet collector, so as granddaddy Megs, he'd be my first choice.

    Other hand: G1 Scorpy - he's my perenial favourite, although I did recently get Overlord, decisions, decisions............

    Good answer!

    I probably wouldn't even grab a TF, I'd grab my Hot Toys Rambo and Hot Toys TDK Joker.

    I have Overlord and Liokaiser next to each other so I'd grab them. Then I'd cram Victory Leo under one arm and Star Saber under the other. And Deszaras under my chin!

    Fixed.


    My choices would be Music Label Mickey Mouse/Optimus Prime and my TRU Soundwave.

    I was thinking about this last night.

    I was trying to figure out what to grab. I know for fact the A/E/C figures can go without much feeling of loss.

    Saving only two of my American figures would be hard. My thoughts went straight to my MP and Alternators.

    Then I figured. If I am going to lose all but two figures might as well lose em all and hang my collectors hat up.

    So I would not save any.

    If I had to pick though, it would be my G1 Omega Supreme and G1 Soundwave with as many tapes as can fit in my hand while I make the grab.

    Thanx

    Probably G1 Fort Max.

    That said, I've always fancied the idea of a fire completely wiping out my belongings and being free of my huge collections of TF, comics and DVDs. A nice blank slate where I have no commitments to collections of anything.

    I can understand this. You just need good insurance and a few gallons of gasoline :wink: 

    Just kidding of course...
