Hello all, I'm somewhat new to these forums, but not exactly new to transformers. I suppose you could say I took a long break, though. In 2019 I discovered the new Cybertron Siege line of transformers and fell back in love with the franchise. I was surprised by the great detail and design on these toys and decided that I would start collecting them again and introduce them to my toddler (who absolutely loves them). The last time I really collected many transformers was during the Beast Wars era. I actually live in a relatively remote area and getting these toys, at the time, was quite difficult. As a result, I had very few of the first years line. I think that by late 1997 or 1998, we got a Walmart and I was able to find many of the toys I wanted from the Fuzor and Transmetal lines. I stored these toys with some care, but not enough to preserve them all. I'm listing them with all of the issues I was able to notice while sorting through them, but something may have slipped past me. One thing I haven't done in great detail is take an inventory on all accessories that these toys come with, however it is my belief that all of the accessories that came with these toys are still in-tact. It's just that I carefully stored all of them in a separate bag that I did not sort through while going through the toys themselves. If someone is interested in this collection, I will then begin to make sure that everything is accounted for. Three figures have serious issues with the metallic paint, which is flaking off in areas. They are Rattrap, Optimal Optimus, and Rampage, which is a bummer. I didn't notice it on any others, but it is possible I missed it. Either way, I'll be careful to look for other cosmetic issues if someone expressed interest. I really have no clue what this collection is worth, but I'm assuming it isn't too much. I'm not looking to make some profit here as much as find them a good home and get a fair amount of money for purchasing some new siege toys. As a result, if anyone has any suggestions for an overall value of this lot, I'd welcome the suggestion. Lastly, I haven't sorted through them, but I do actually have quite a few (probably not all) of the packaging cards that came with these figures. I'll be happy to include them as well. Feel free to PM or post any questions here and I'll do my best to get back to you quickly.
A lot of people are asking about breaking these up. At the moment, I’d prefer to seek everything as a lot, but if you are interested in a small portion you are welcome to ask. Just please let me know what you’d like to spend. Lastly, I don’t have an exact figure for this collection. A serious offer would include an amount that you’d like to spend. Keep in mind that shipping costs are not insignificant, so let me know whether your offer incorporates those costs.
I got somewhat distracted not long after posting this (there was a pandemic), so I never unloaded the whole lot. I never got any clear offers from anyone previously and ended up selling a couple of these figures alone. As a result, this lot no longer includes Optimal Optimus or Depth Charge, but I think everything else on the list is still here. Just send me a message with an offer of what you want to spend and I’ll let you know if we can work something out.
