    You have first dibs man, but it's highly unlikely that I'll split em up. :p 

    I just received my TFCC Rampage and Transmutate. I'll post a couple of pics of my small collection of non-beast Beast Wars figures over the weekend.

    Yeah, for the simple fact that he's worth a lot more than that now.

    I had him re-purposed as Apelinq for YEARS.

    I still need the actual Primal though. He's almost as bad as Telemocha Primal...

    PS actually already has a complete set (and has a review of it on Youtube), so I don't know what he needs DJ for.

    I remember those! I used to have them until I bought the series on DVD.

    I actually picked the Cybertron version up to see if I really wanted to shell out the money for the United version (to open). Had Apelinq not made it to the line-up this year, it would certainly have made it to the "classics" BW shelf as Apelinq. Now I'm thinking about painting it up as SG Primal. Only until we get an official one... Maybe.

    One of the smaller wings on mine has a small (almost hairline) crack on it. It'd be nothing to fix with super glue, but I'd rather just have one that isn't damaged.

    Absolutely.
    And that Scylla would be bought pretty quick, although I'd want the rest of God Neptune to go with it :lol

    But then you'd need updated versions of Scuba and Bighorn. One to be harassed and one to be the stalker. :lol 

    Seriously though I really wish some of the Japanese figs would get the update treatment too.

    I like the backgrounds you have for your pictures. What are they?

    Thanks man. Those are mechanical chain bases, usually used for Gundam figures.

    Are those supposed to be the beast wars uprising versions of them, or the pre-earth forms?

    To be honest, I'm not sure. I just find BW characters with non-beast alt modes really interesting. I'm too poor to buy the 2006 Botcon figs, though. :)
