Nice, very nice.
Didn't realise Cybertron Metroplex was so big.
Nice to see how G2 Megatron compares with the Alternators in vehicle modes. Any pics of him and an Alt in robot mode?

Wow, I'd hardly consider that a small collection. I like your custom Laser Prime, and props for owning the 1:18 flying DeLorean.

Actually, two Rambles and a Cybertron Scrapmetal.
Thanks for the comments everyone!

They still make a nice set. I only have one Cybertron Scrapmetal. They still have not come to my Wal-Mart (I got the one I have on ebay).

What Optimus Primal is that? A custom painted Blast Punch or Air Attack or something?
Regardless, more pics of him! He looks awesome.

Poor Prowl didn't stand a chance.
Any collection that includes a Fort max has to be considered awesome.

He's actually a entirely new mold Big Lots knockoff that they sell around Christmas time every year. He's pretty impressive, and comes with two black Swords from the original Optimus Primal toy. They only downside is that he's made of pretty brittle plastic.

That's awesome. Should make him cheap

. I figured it was a custom. And that explains why I couldn't figure out exactly which one he was. Can I get some more pics of him, preferably in both modes (if he has a robot mode)?

It was pretty cheap. I believe either $5.99 or $7.99.
That is in robot mode in the pic, I'll get a couple more pics of him in both modes tonight when I get home.

Wow, that's a great collection; a lot of variety. I don't have many Robot Masters (Just the three G1 Seekers and Double Face), so it's quite neat to see several of the other RM figures displayed there.
Really makes me wanna get around to moving into our new place, and more importantly, setting up our new camera (How long do they have to make these instruction manuals, anyhow...?) so I can contribute my own pics.

The sad thing is, they are all KOs. I usually buy two of them because the crappy quality means they break easily. The whole shelf those are on are all KOs, actually.
A total count I do not have right now. The only thing I keep up with numbers wise is minicons, which I believe I'm up to 168 on.

As promised, here are the pics of that Big Lots knockoff BM Optimus Primal.
Robot mode from the front. Notice the BW Primal swords.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/crazyj...on/DSCF0430.jpgRobot mode from the rear...not as pretty.
http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y4/crazyj...on/DSCF0431.jpgAnd beast mode. Basically the hands flip around to paws, the robot head folds into the chest, the waist rotates around, and the gorilla head moves up to the top.

if you consider that to be small then my collection must be seriously tiny! i only collect rare figures and figures that i REALLY want from now on. I used to have loads of TFs but cut back alot to getting only what i really wanted.

Snazzy. yeah, he's pretty bad as a transformer, but his robot mode is awesome looking enough to warrant the purchase. Thanks for the extra pics duder.

Sweet collection! When mine are ALL out and standing together I've always called that "roll-call". I love a full on roll-call. I don't get to see mine like that very often for the last few years. Roll-call always takes a long time because besides a few exceptions, I always put my TFs away in alt mode.
Questions:
Do you have a count?
How long have you been collecting?
How old when you started?
Doctimus
EDIT: I just saw your Micros. Nice Micro collection as well. I love the Ultra Magnus repaint. I should have thought of that, it's especially cool because he IS a car hauler! Beauty! I'd like to see him with a little custom work on his trailer.
What is the yellow Safegaurd(Sunstorm)? Home painted or imported?

I don't have my count handy. I keep it at work, will have to look tomorrow.
I've been collecting since halfway through Energon, so just a couple years or so. I'm not a completist by any means, but I do hunt around for deals on ones I don't have when I can. I started collecting Armada heavily due to loving the show, loved the minicons, and just kept getting them.
Then, recently, within the last month or so, I started wanting Micromasters. I already had a couple of the combiners and Hot Rodimus, the rest I've gotten rather quickly through a big ebay lot, a few VERY helpful guys here in BST, and a very few from online stores.
The lot is the main reason I have that bunch of doubles in the back. They, like most doubles, are probably destined for repainting somewhere down the road. I'm working on a Magnus coloring on my spare Overload, and I've repainted an extra Hyperdrive into Clipper, Holi(Stakeout)'s girlfriend in Victory.
And yeah, it is cool to see them all laid out like that, I haven't done that since I only had maybe 50 minicons. As crowded as I keep my shelves, it's a real pain to work them all out and then work them back into their positions. Might should have waited until I had a day off, as I can't sleep until they are moved back.
Edit: Yeah, the yellow Safeguard is Sigma, the custom partner of my Alpha Trion repaint of Vector Prime. I'm still working on Magnus, his cab isn't even finished yet. I also have custom repaints of the Air Military Team and the Land Military Team mixed in there.

Sigma..,very cool! And I look forward to seeing Magnus when he's done. I would like to have three, Red, White and Blue! Is it cool with you if I get one for a white repaint? I don't want to scab your idea without permission

Yeah, I'm sure I'm not nearly the first to repaint Overload into Magnus. Even if I was, I wouldn't mind at all others doing it.
Pretty sure your final product will turn out better than mine, judging by your other work.

Actually (for me) is ok to keep only the Cybertron, Classic, Alternators and RobotMasters.

I finally got the last Micromaster I needed to complete the U.S. collection, Sky High of the Autobot Air Patrol. That brings my total of unique micromasters up to 137, plus my two custom painted ones, Clipper and Magnus. I set up the entire army to commemorate the event.
