    You're missing the grails - the japanese dino tapes, ie Dial, Zaur, Graph & Glyph.

    The KO's of these are still around if you can't justify the cost.

    Also, you don't have Slamdance in there, but you have his combined mode.

    Then it's a matter of drawing the line. Does Classics ravage that turns into a cassette with the same proportions of a G1 cassette count? If so, then he and his botcon alt paintjob should be there.

    Will MP cassettes be the same size? Should they count? If so it's 5 more

    I can recommend the KO Dial and Zaur. Their stickers take some patience to put on, and they might need a few screws tightened and some good plastic glue, but they were worth it to me.

    I haven't pulled the trigger on Graph & Glyph KOs, but I am tempted.

    The fourth Dinocassette is Noise, not Glyph. And I have an extra set of the bootlegs I'd be willing to sell if you're interested in them, mallomm.

    This has been a little side project for me too. :D  The only ones that I'm missing (that I know of) are the KP set, the one that came with the first release Twincast, and the Cobalt Century set...and the ones from the Solar Requiem set.

    Good luck on the hunt!

    I dunno - the japanese dinos are way more expensive than the microchange cassettes, which would imply that they are more coveted and are more of a grail...anyways - It all depends on where you draw the line really. I mean, some people don't consider a KO, a third party toy or a release from a non-TF series a transformer, should different versions ve counted? Are the bigger microchange cassettes, the heli and bike something that should be included? What of other minions that don't turn into cassettes like universe blasters minion?

    I really appreciate the effort behind creating lists like that and I am greatful that you posted a link to it here as I wouldn't have seen it otherwise - but don't use lists like that to tell others that their collection isn't complete when you don't know what their collecting preferences are. Don't be that guy.

    i wasnt being that guy. i never said he had to get all on that list.

    the first link shows pics only of g1 and microchange/diaclone.

    the list is just there as he is collecting all, so maybe the OP will look to get other non G1 items and will already had a list. plus i dont need to tell him its incomplete when it isnt complete since the OP started this thread asking anyways.

    so dont be that guy, telling someone else not to be that guy when your post is putting words in my mouth.
