With the exception of a few Masterpiece figures and the FortMax reissue, there is nothing that I'm really looking forward to.

Maybe when the toy fairs start providing on future releases it might change.

 

FoC Grimlock
FoC Soundblaster
FoC Kickback
Beast Hunters Predacon figures

That's it for now unless a TFP style Smokescreen shows up in the BH line. Other than that, I'm cutting back and going to focus on TMNT and older TF lines.

 

couple FOC figures and thats it, i dont collect the Prime or BH stuff

 

Masterpieces
FOC Grimlock
FOC Blaster
FOC Starscream

 

Some TF: Prime stuff, MP Soundwave and MP Red Alert plus Encore Anime Devastator.
That's all for the time being. As for Fort Max, space will be an issue...

 

Soundwave and Fortmax are enough to burn a hole in my wallet.
Other than that, I'm looking at Fanstoys Shockwave and more headmaster toys.

 

foc grimlock
kreon combiners
new kreons blind bags
a bunch of third party stuff

Basically, expensive.

 

To be honest, there's a couple figures I really want; the Fall of Cybertron figures especially. I had hoped to collect the entire line (sub-line?), but then I got into collecting LEGO The Lord of the Rings and LEGO The Hobbit sets, so instead of TransFormers I'm going after a full collection of all those sets. (I only have Uruk-hai Army, Gandalf Arrives, and Elrond so far, but I'm hoping to get more soon.  ) Maybe when I finish getting those I'll go after the Fall of Cybertron figures (starting with next years Wreckers and Starscream!  ), and hopefully Thundertron too, but for now I don't see many new additions to my TransFormers collection.  

 

For the first 6 months of 2013 I expect to purchase the following.

FOC Generations Voyagers and Deluxes
Beast Hunters Voyagers and a few Deluxes here and there.
Arms Micron Prime
Takara Masterpieces Red Alert , Sideswipe , Soundwave and Tapes
3rd Party Mini Bots
Encore Fortress Maximus
Takara Generations Skywarp
PP05P Specialist
GI Joe Retaliation Wave 3 and beyond
Fill Misc Holes in my 3rd Party , Masterpiece , Movie , PCC , and Classics collections


Plan on spending less overall this year then the last 2.

 

In terms of third party: expensive
In terms of first party: not great aside from MP and Kreo

 

I'd have to see what Hasbro's got planned for 2013. Outside of the first wave of Beast Hunters, and the Wreckers FoC wave, we know virtually nothing.

 

Lots of female robots, exclusives, KREO, Prime and Generations.

Maybe some 3rd Party if the money's right.

 

It's not looking like much collecting so far. There are some FoC figures I'd like to get if distribution isn't horrible on that part of the line.

Not really sure on the Beast Hunters figures because the Transformers Prime line has been sort of mixed bag for me. Some figures seems to fit in nicely with my Classics style stuff but other figures just don't fit in.

Hopefully Hasbro has some good stuff for 2013 because once the movie line gets released for 2014 there will not be any new figures I'm interested in until the movie line ends.

 

Probably FoC: Grimlock, Kickback, Soundblaster, Blaster, Ratbat. Maybe FoC Starscream & Ultra Magnus. Beyond that we will see...

OK I want to add FoC Grimlock to the list.  

 

completing g1. keeping up with mps and the 3d party i want, oh, retail....probably a couple shelfwarming foc voyagers

 

Very expensive.

 

Rather expensive overall. Aiming at getting some third party stuff and MP Soundwave, as well as completing the Animated and Cybertron lines. Not really into FOC stuff other than deluxe wave 3 and I only want 3 or 4 figures from Beast Hunters.

 

Pretty light so far:

MP-13 and friends
Takara Generations FOC Grimlock, assumed
Select Fansproject stuff
Select Maketoys stuff

That iGear Impactor or PE Beast Wars figures would be nice, whenever they decide to get released.

 

Say whaaaaaaaaaaaa

I don't think I've read about those!
