Little Atari!

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
Mission completed! I completed the Kiss Players series with Atari X Autorooper! It is really ridiculous that I didn't buy a TF figure at a cheap price when it first came out, but have to pay more for it at a later time. Anyway, I'm happy to have my second complete series after the Robot Masters. Let's enjoy this little gallery.

The package. Not really welcome by most TF fans, but I like it! Ohshima's art is great!

Lovely Atari! To be honest, I bought this set is for this small Atari figure more than Autorooper! (*_*)

Evolution of Cheetor

This is the first time I opened 5 TFs in one day (except minicons)! It took me over 1 year to get all the 5 Cheetors. Let's go through how Cheetor becomes a mature warrior.

I don't have the chance to get a Cheetor toys when it first came out. Mine is the Tele Mocha one.

Even with a TransMetal body, Cheetor is still a kid.

My TM Cheetor is a Japanese one. I got it in a fairly low price. (less then US$10)

Cheetor is a lucky boy. He is always the first one to get an upgrade.
This is the best Cheetor as a toy.

My TM2 Cheetor got a Takara sticker on the card back. There was also "USA-Edition" at that time?

Finally become a mature warrior in Cybertron.
As a Mega size toys, BM Cheetor sucks...

Then why did I get him? Just because I got it in Japan TRU with 500 yen!

WST Sports Label

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
We Chinese are really wonderful! How can you imagine the Sports Label Transformers become miniaturized? I rarely buy any KO toys but they are really amazing. Not only Convoy and Megatron are produced, but also Convoy marine type and not-yet-release Starscream! 3 and I bought a set of 4 at only about US$5. I picked Convoy and Megatron and left the other two to 3.

Though they look fairly good in shoe mode (only the bootlaces are missing), they are simplified a lot. You can see in the robot mode, the legs are not movable. Also all 4 shoes share the same Convoy head! But with only 1/2 the size of the original Sports Label (1/4 of Nike shoe), it is still a nice piece. With such a low price, it even comes with a key holder! I didn't pick out the original Sports Label for some comparison pics. You may click here to recall your memory. (^_^)

Battle Damaged Optimus Prime

Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket
I have to say one more time, Hong Kong is a good place for toy collectors! I got the Sam's Club exclusive battle-damaged Optimus Prime! The shop in Hong Kong is so smart to sell the 3 figures separately. I only have to pay for OP but not another Starscream and Arcee! Let's enjoy this small gallery! Want some comparison pics? Sorry, it is the first voyager OP I picked it out from package! (^_^)
