    What if you have less than a hundred to begin with?

    I'd probably say Scorponok. He's the one Transformers I've wanted ever since I was a kid and I actually went through the trouble of buying two just so I could complete one.

    MP Grimlock, Hegemon, Encore Omega Supreme.

    Those 3 are at least forever safe with me.

    -Cybertron leader Optimus. I adore that toy 100%.
    -TFP FE Starscream. Awesome figure.
    -Cybertron Galvatron. Beautiful toy.
    -Masterpiece Grimlock. It holds to true to the name of the line it came from.
    -RID Scourge. I think this is the best black redeco of Optimus that's been made.

    I could make this list a lot longer by putting all my Unicron Trilogy toys in there but I won't.

    It would have to be my almost obsessively collected Rodimi army.

    Optimus Primal
    Rat Trap (original)if I had it but the TM one will suffice
    ROTF leader OP and Jetfire
    Armada Unicron
    G1 Optimus Prime
    G1 Ultra Magnus
    SDCC Nemesis Prime
    Classics Jazz

    IDK there are so many.... esp some of the movie verse like shockwave, and megatron and blackout and sentinel but, at least the ones above..

    WHAT? You mean that I get to keep only 1% of my collection? :redface2: 

    I wanted to safekeep my G1 collection inclusive of the Reissues but that would go beyond 1% mark...

    I'll settle for my LDs instead. :eek:

    Very interesting answers so far... We're seeing more than a little love for 3rd party figures and masterpieces.

    Of course you can keep your entire G1 collection, man. :)  What are "LDs" anyway, laser discs? I bet half the people here don't even know what those are :)

    1%? Since I only own about 500+, that means 6 TFs at most >_<;

    Big Convoy and Black Big Convoy
    Car Robot Black Convoy (sorry Scourge...you aren't that minty anymore)
    RiD Autobot bros

    ...I guess I won't be able to do this, haha. There are heaps more I will never sell.

    1. my incomplete movie 1 voyager Ironhide (first Ironhide and part of my collection as a gift from my uncle)

    2. Cybertron Primus (gift from my mom)

    3. SDCC Bruticus (gift from both my parents who went through an insane amount of refreshing their computers to him)

    4. MP TC (i can't find him anywhere else and he was a gift from my grandmother)

    and if i had to choose another one it'd either be my G1 Prime cause complete for 40 bucks isn't exactly common or my energon shockblast cause it's a gift from my little bro

    I'm sticking to those ten. There are sooooo many more (BW Telemocha Dinobot, TM Cheetor, that Japanese credit card Strafe, others I'll refrain from listing)...but those are the top ten off the top of my head for a litany of reasons.

    Maybe I'd hold on to my Classics (Prime, Ramjet, Starscream, Rodimus, Bee, Megatron, Skywarp, Magnus and Mirage) but I'd want to keep RTS Jazz and some incarnation of Soundwave with Ravage & Laserbeak if nothing else. Because Soundwave & Jazz are two of my favs since G1.

    My leader Ironhide, even though I removed and threw away the mouthplate, accidentally ripped some wires to the LED and other electronics, and broke a piece of his neck in the hopes of getting his head to rotate. I superglued the head back in place and with all these damages, it still looks nice on my shelf in bot mode. It's one of my prized possessions because it took me months of hunting and store-calling to get it.
