    CM, I've bought 9 packs and ended up with

    Super Optimus Prime - 1
    Megatron Robot Mode - 1
    Optimus Prime Truck Mode - 1
    Rodimus - 2
    Landmine - 2
    Hot Shot - 2
    Scourge - 1
    Insecticon - 3
    Omnicon - 1
    Decepticlone - 1
    Scorponok - 1
    Minicon - 1
    Battle Ravage - 1

    Plus I got the starter pack with Prime, Megs, and Omega Sentinel (Prime and Megs from the 2 figure booster packs are the same as these :(  ), and the two boxed booster sets, with Omega Supreme, Crumplezone, Dirtboss, Overhaul, Skyblast, and Skyblast Jet Mode.

    Quite a sizeable army, if I say so myself.....and I've still got 5 molds to get. I'm sure plenty of Insecticons and Omnicons are in my future.

    Whoah Blackstar, looks like you're doing pretty good with the randoms. Only bough 2 booster packs so far and already have 2 Omnicons, but it's cool , there's plenty of paint to go around hehe

    Just noticed the Omega & Dirtboss 2pack after buying the one wit hthe SW figs grrr

    So far only have-

    Omega Sentinel 1
    Skyblast 1
    Skyblast jetmode 1
    Megatron 1
    Megatron jetmode 1
    Overhaul 1
    Vector Prime 1
    Dirtboss 1
    Omnicon 2

    Will keep you posted on any doubles and maybe we can trade up.
    Afraid I'll need one left eventually and will have to go through about 10 packs to get it :lol

    Can I see a picture of Decepticlone figure, please?

    I actually want the ones from the PS2 game rather badly. And Cyb Megs looks good, too.

    *shakes fist at blindpacked items*

    I've picked up the SW/TF Intergalactic Showdown, the Omega & Dirtboss Battle Masters, and the Starter Set. I've also bought 12 booster packs and ended up with a ton of duplicates (grrr!). Got a lot of those chrome base pieces, too. Think I'll hang onto my extras - it's fun to build a little army. Still need Scourge, Excellion, Scorponok, Ransack, and Galvatron (which comes with the collector case, not out yet).

    For those that don't know, Omega Supreme (from the Battle Masters set) and Omega Sentinel (from the Intergalactic Showdown set) are NOT simple recolors. Sentinel has a terrific missle attack, while Supreme has a (somewhat lame) 'whacking' arm.

    You may want to doublecheck that - I don't have them in front of me at the moment to be 100% certain, but I believe the bases are different colors and the booster pack Prime and Megs have metallic paint, as opposed to the ones that come with the Intergalactic Showdown set which have a flat 'anime-ish' paint. I'll check later and confirm or retract that.

    Touche'. The bases are indeed a gold color instead of the typical black, but the paint is exactly the same, as well as the abilities and point cost of the figure.

    Here are my needs, if anyone can supply them. I'll trade any doubles I have:

    Excellion
    Starscream
    Vector Prime
    Megatron Vehicle Mode
    Ransack

    You're absolutely right - I stand corrected. For some reason I had it in my head that the paint job was different. Perhaps I was just wishing that it was.

    Man, I can't find these anywhere here yet. :( 

    Hopefully they'll be hocked on the cheap at Botcon.

    Cool, will bring mine along.
    Might have to practice battles with my little cousin to get good.

    Jojo, that case is sweet. Is it official, or a customized SW Attacktix case?
    Makes a good display

    Those Ps2 Armada units were pretty cool, If I get a 2nd Decepticlone Im gonna pull the art gallery up from the game and try to paint one like it.

    Check out this Motormaster kitbash, it kinda reminds me of the heavy units
