    It's basically a good 70 - 90% of my collection (other figures include those from Prime, RID2015, and some movie figs).
    Combiner Wars is to me what Masterpiece is to older fans. I cannot wait to get my hands on every combiner currently planned for release.

    I'm planning on getting all but devy and Menasor (can't get over that face).

    Chug makes up a third of my collection, the other two are movie and beastwars figures.

    They should do a beast wars tribute next year.
    Some of the figures:
    A new Cheetor
    Primal
    Dinobot
    Inferno
    Megatron.
    And an Axalon play ship, with a scaled base room.

    Uncalled for!

    He's not really optimus like. In car robots he wasn't prime, hasbro called him that when they ported the show to the U.S. because people recognize prime.

    They did the same with Gigatron, even though he looks nothing like Megatron.

    Ironically, he later "evolved" into Galvatron.

    The ONE chance they have to give him is real name...

    Generations Rattrap. An ambitious design marred by poor plastics and terrible quality control.

    G1 Fortress maximus

    It's a huge, always-standing-in-the-way brick. Absolutely useless.

    I agree that he's goofy, but I think everyone's always felt that way. Squat, weird head, permanently aroused, skinny floppy legs... I remember being 6yo in 1985 and specifically asking Santa not to give me Megatron because I thought his toy looked like ass. I got him anyway.
