Collecting Goals

[Thundershot]

I love watching the old Diaclone & Microman adverts..seeing the original versions of well known transformers, long before they had any back story or plotline, in one way as two seperate toy lines they make more sense, scale wise that is..

[Sundance]

i had one of those transforming watches. it was a bit crap, really...

[Thundershot]

I always think of them watches as being like some sort on mini-me version of Soundwave..

are you talking about the 80's quartz transforming watches ?

If so they were cool as hell !

Got some very modest collecting goals...
Complete my Devilfish (only two small missiles to go...Cheers Andy!)
Get a ferret or two.
Complete my MOC 25th Ann collection. (Yellow cam Stalker & Gold head Pimp Destro are a teensy bit problematic)
Get a 25th Ann Sting Raider.
Build a squad of 25th Ann Televipers (with stands and gear...still don't know where the gear is coming from or why I want to do it...must be something to do with my buried Televiper in Lanzarote)
Build a squad of 25th Ann Alley Vipers (10 should do it)

Not looking that modest now I look at it...

I thought it might be interesting to see how our collecting goals have changed since last Summer. So here goes mine:

Devilfish is complete but one of the little missile tabs on the orange base has now snapped off
Still haven't got any ferrets.
My MOC 25th Collection has now hit ebay in a big way. About 50% is gone.
The squad of 25th televipers has since become a squad of 10 vintage televipers. I think 10 is enough so I've stopped now.
The squad of 25th Alley Vipers has now become a squad of vintage Alley Vipers (got 4 so far I think). Although a 25th Alley Viper still holds my paperclips at work - a damn useful figure.

I finished my more recent goal to get all the complete figs from the Hasbro 85 run and am now building a Night Viper squad.

my goals are to get a complete AWE Striker and Crankcase, a complete Big Bear v1, a complete Stinger & Driver, a Ferret, a Silver Mirage and an Armadillo and to get a second Viper, CG, blue shirt and maybe Eel. oh, yeah and a complete and but they're longer-term...

i also want to get a complete and incomplete and figures for the two customs i want. and maybe a Wolverine complete and

complete Striker, Crankcase, Big Ben (should've been Big Ben not Bear), Stinger and Driver, Ferret and Armadillo got. second Viper, CG, blue shirt and Eel got.

got 4 more CGs too. given up on and the Wolverine and

i now want 1 complete Night Viper, 1 complete Snow Serpent, and one each of and complete and i'm thinking of getting a complete Shadowtrak and a complete Cosmic Cruiser.

need to decide who else to get besides Major Bludd and the SS and NV to have 40 Cobras...
