    Back in January of this year I made a similar thread here:

    Windblade Complete Checklist/Collection Thread (All series)

    ...since I am also collecting all of the Windblade figures like you are. You've got quite a few fan-made items in your collection. I myself am trying to stick to only officially made things by Hasbro, Takara-Tomy or 3rd Parties.

    You've got all of the official figures (and some customized ones from Toyhax and custom repaints, I see), except for one: The Robots in Disguise "Sword Fighter" Windblade figure:

    But there are some non-figure items for Windblade you don't have that I can see. There's some stuff from Etsy that's fan-made like a dakimakura/body pillow keychain:

    20210918_211601.jpg

    ...and a couple of fan-made keychains (also from Etsy):

    20210918_213515.jpg

    20210918_213517.jpg

    ...and an officially made "Stuck on Stories" Transformers storybook that features a 3D head of Windblade as well:

    Hope that helps!

    I have some unofficial stuff, but the primary focus is the official stuff. I wasn't aware of the Sword Fighter Windblade or the "Stuck on Stories" head. I'll have to hunt those down, thanks!

    It was extremely hard for me to get, as an American. You have to either find someone who has access to the European or Russian markets for the magazine, or buy it secondhand on eBay or a similar place.

    If you don't mind my asking, where/how did you manage to find yours? I see a post here about it from you but it no one responded so I imagine it was elsewhere

    At the time when I got it, I found it for sale on a Russian website and had a friend in Russia help me get it. But I honestly can't find that website anymore...not sure if they went out of business or aren't selling it anymore. It was an older issue, so I'm not sure how you can get it now. In that thread I posted I did show the two issues of the RiD magazine that it comes with, so maybe if you can find one of those for sale (or find someone who has one of them), it might have the figure with it.

    Sorry I'm not helping much...if I had a link to it, I'd give it to you for sure!
