My obsession - G1

    I was asked a while ago when I joined this forum for a picture of my small G1 collection (think it was about 5 years ago :o ) and I was moving stuff and had some boxes out and decided to snap a couple of them. Here is a "couple" of them. (Picture 1)

    I then got set upon by my 4 yr son and in a fire fighting exercise I gave him one of my non-G1's to keep him happy. (picture 2)

    Didn't work. :( (Picture 3)

    I will update this with the rest of the collection as there is a lot missing from the photo. The bag at the front middle is Reflector and just behind him is Mirage whom you can't see. Also, the other bag is a collection of the first wave of the Micromasters, which I had an odd liking for. :)

    Great collection dude :) I had a lot of those myself but not the only-available-in-America ones :( There was a kid round the corner from me who had Trypticon.. couldn't get him to swap no matter what I tried! :p
    I did have Scorponok and Metroplex though.


    I think there's probably still a load of them in the attic at home. Must dig them out sometime and see what survived...

    I have a lot more to photograph, nearly the complete set with a few headmasters and targetmasters missing and Menasor and that's it. :-)

    Might break them down into the way they were released, in their sub categories. Just getting the time to it.

    Spread it out over a few weeks. That way you don't feel the pressure to do it all at once!

    Very nice collection :eek:
    And you have the Headmasters! :) Do you also have Brainstorm? I can see the other three in the photo but not him.

    Yep, have Brainstorm somewhere and Fort Max but didn't see Brainstorm or Misfire in the boxes I was going through. Hope I didn't leave them in the old house or I'll have to un-tick them from the list :( . Never got around to getting the Decepticon headmasters except for the Horrocons (which I loved at the time).

    Yeah, good idea for doing over a couple of weeks. That way I can keep my son from starting his own collection :) Predaking was "borrowed" before the photo and I didn't really notice until after I took the photo.

    I must say, nice collection. They all look so new. Anybody into collecting AFA graded transformers?
