here's whut i got 2day..2bad didnt get the chance to meet up with bro chrono. 1st there was this one kid, dunno his name but ive seen him couple of times elsewhere..lol.. then ah kok also continue calling me "hensem boi"..  suddenly there's a lot of ppl coming in d.. i grab my stuff quickly n go lorh.. any of u guys were there around 1.30 - 2 ? i was d one wearing orange tshirt with hawaii beach shorts..

*the only downside of this set is dat i find it cliff's paint can easily be chipped off..bumblebee on the other side is more solid with his colors although i think the yellow is a lil bit on d bright side for my taste..other than that i think its a cool figure..both of em. if u'd ask me which one to choose, i will deff. say cliff coz i like his red better..metallic efx.

Good day my fellow TF friends here.... Nice 2 meet u all~~~!!! I might b new in this big family, but I've been updating this thread since I started 2 collect my TFs.... Ngam ngam collect my very 1st MP - MO-04 from a seller this morning..... My 1st haul in year 2010!!!!! Can't wait 2 open it d~~~~~

i was there holding my lil girl between 2 to 2.45 more checking out on starcom...hahaha

it was a random pick .. ez colelction sold seperately at dreamtoyz in pyramid soo i jus simply pick 2 n pray hrd.. rm20 each

open 1st 1... iron hide... kecewa...
open 2nd 1.. terspot the big wheels...
happy... told the casher dis is wat i wan n walk away

I think there is no straight answer to this.

Whatever TFs that are out today will be vintage in the future. And some kid will whose parents didn't get him that Leader Class ROTF OP (example only, feel free to insert the name of your preferred TF) will grow and get a job. Assuming he's still into TF, imagine if he's finds an ebay posting listing ROTF Buster Prime for say (again example only) RM480, 10 years later. He might be able to buy it. Why? Because it has sentimental value and he now has the means.

Heck, sentimental value is what is driving most of us here anyway. TFs are the connection to our childhood, the part of us that never grows up, else why would be spend huge amounts of money (MR50 excluded here) on, quite frankly, plastic.

So there you go, whether something becomes history is actually up to the individual. How you it makes you feel when owning it. Sentimental value is all it comes down to, so if you're shrewd, you'd stock up on some popular ROTF characters (just in case), you'd never know which child's day you'd make in the future. What you will know is how much moolah you've made out of it.

Thanks for reading,
Ray

i share this sentiment...my dad could not afford this back in the early 80s...now i have the moolah...haul at my own means

Well-said Ray... But I guess if the mindset is to buy and sell, might as well buy something else... Look at all the vintage G1 stuffs out there, how many would actually buy them even if they can afford it?

putu_mayam is an exception! =P

Take into consideration the number of years that you store those stuffs, transport them when you move, inflation etc. Worth the hassle meh?

Buy Exclusives, have them AFA-graded etc.

Then maybe...

sorry har bro...was rushing over from friends' place...flat engine battery n broken parts...helped him charge then send to workshop. Then had to leave n pick him up while repairs are being done
aiks?? where's Son-kun?
aiya...wanted to meet u also...but u got there n went off so early...
whee!!! we got the same haul!
haha...ya ya...never realized also earlier...
Welcome to eat grass club. Enjoy your stay. If grass proves to be too disruptive to your stomach, u might wanna add in sand n dust to your diet...kidding
gratz on collecting MP04! A slightly flawed mold...but awesome nonetheless!
aiks? that was u bro? nice meeting u! cute child u have there
damn lucky! gratz!!!! finally after searching it for so long!
i totally agree! Fulfilling your childhood dreams are what is most important.
We may sell n make some profit off of it, but as long as we are not scalping, no harm done. If we can make someone else happy in the long run, i'm satisfied.
uh oh...
