    Ultra Magnus is my favorite too. I remember totally destroying that box in seconds.

    I've been a huge fan of the Stunticons ever since they first appeared in season 2.

    Dead End and Wildrider are 85s, the rest are 80s.

    Motormaster alone is worth 2k, so you are looking at 5k easily, if you ever decide to sell it.

    Here's the pop report from AFA. I'm not sure what he is worth, but it seems like most people are not letting go of him so easily.

    1987 Hasbro Transformers Sixshot:
    85(6), 80(6), Q80(2), 75(1), 60(1).

    I'm not usually a minibot guy, but IamRatchet had this one listed for super cheap.

    I'd even go as far to say that it looks like an 85 in person.

    I haven't posted very much but I found this thread and it's so enjoyable. It's great seeing these sealed and graded figures. I think it's cool that so many people have the same collecting habits that I do. Anyway, I wanted to contribute and share a Soundwave that I just bought and quite frankly was never sure I'd be able to own. He AFA'd 80 85 85 - 80NM+. Look forward to seeing more! The Magnus, Stunticons, And Warpath above are way sweet by the way.

    Damn! That looks flawless. I also see you have a Rodimus in the background. It's tough to even find one graded. Lucky you.

    You don't see him come up sealed very often, so it is difficult to give him a price, but AFA 85 for a large Transformer is a high grade, I'd say just over $2000 is a realistic price. The one I own is sealed on one side, the other had already dried when I bought him in 1999 for $90. Which believe it or not was overpriced at the time lol.

    I've always dug the character artwork of Tracks. One of the coolest pieces of artwork they did. Very nice.

    Thanks for sharing your knowledge. I agree with the $2000 estimate. Do you know if Quickswitch is just as rare as Sixshot? I've only seen one AFA graded version of him.
