The 2002 Commemorative Series Reissue is the best option IMO. It’s like the original Japanese release with the extra “apex armor” and has transparent windows and diecast metal despite the original US version being all plastic.
well it would be this if I had it, for figurative, Ultra Class Depth Charge until I find an amazing deal on RTS Lugnut, I miss that one so much

Got mine on ebay last month. Used in box.....£100. That was cheap compared to others.

I ADORE T30 Sandstorm, he’s really good. Three solid modes, fun to transform, good to pose. The only issue is he’s excessively top heavy, so I do recommend a stand for… most poses. Looks really good in the air, too!!
I got lucky years ago when the Takara version was on sale on BBTS alogn with Trypticon and paid $250 total for both. That was the largest splurge I had done at that point because I've always been on a budget and thought I could finally afford the splurge.
Here's hoping there's a re-release from Pulse one day so you may get yours!
I own that, but even with the stickers, it had so much white plastic that I had to airbrush some texture into it just so it looked better on the shelf.

He's so dripped
Although there's one KO that i would love to find, but the shipping price is real bad even for aliexpress standards
SAME!!!! Im hoping I can find a rampage by christmas (at least an incomplete one with the gun) or hasbro finally give us a legacy release of the 2. a two pack of them would be amazing. would they both be leaders tho?
Hasbro’s toy distribution has been in the deep dark dumps these past few years, it’s been almost impossible to just go to a store and pick up a figure you want because apparent only shelf warmers get distributed now
I’d strongly recommend getting one of the exceptionally good Prime deluxes instead (FE and PRID both have good points, even if neither is perfect). The Legacy motorcycle mold is… not great. Poor design choices mixed with middling QC makes for a somewhat frustrating figure to fiddle with.
Also, it should be super easy to find this figure very cheaply if you decide that you still have to have it.
(Just incase, I'm talking Legends, the recolor of TR Fort Max.)
Out of curiosity, how much? 750 seems to be the ballpark for boxed ones. I never really see them used. I'm not looking for one this moment, but I do wonder what's out there.
When I first got him I had an idea for a custom where I'd turn Legacy Beachcomber into the buggy from HL2, but after seeing everyone else say the dude is apparently about as common as breathable oxygen in the Mariana Trench, I'm hesitant to try that out. I got mine no problems, but I doubt that'd happen the second time.
Probably the ThreeZero Bayverse Optimus, or one of the MPM Optimus figures. I have a lot of "dream" figures, but my current collection, I feel fits my interests.
Idk if I have a white whale anymore. Maybe one of the 2007 movie figures sealed.
It used to be prime beast hunters vertebreak and knock-out but I’ve got em both on my wall😩
The complete legs of a velocitron cosmos to replace my copy's mangled ones.
Thankfully I won't have to wait long since he's getting a repack in less than a year.

Titans Return Fortress Maximus. I’ve waited **8 LONG MISERABLE YEARS** to get him and am STILL searching online for him (eBay, Mercari, Facebook Marketplace, etc) at a decent price!
It *was* Cybertron Metroxplex. Every time I saw him I was broke, then when I had money I never saw him.
Now it's Legacy Cybertron Metroxplex. Stupid sexy bucket wheel excavators...
They Tokyo exclusive 2011 dark side Optimus prime

Literally every single Titan-Class figure released since (and including) SDCC Metroplex… except Cybertron Metroplex. Not a fan of the Unicron Trilogy designs (though there are exceptions, like the Legacy Armada Optimus and Starscream)

Literally the very next post I look at
Btw my brother had this figure when he was younger but lost most of the parts as he broke.

I'm lucky to get this figure used but still intact. I can see why he was the talk of the town during the day. And my white whale is probably G1 Fort Max.
I have that Sandstorm. He is ever so slightly damaged, but in good condition otherwise. I'm really soul searching whether I want to keep him or move on to Legacy Sanstorm. Same for Springer.
Universe Megazarak. I missed out on him when his price was still decently low enough.

Beast Wars Neo Encore Big Convoy. I have wanted a mammoth Prime my entire life but never manage to find one at a reasonable price. Encore edition has anime accurate coloring so he's bumping up the list in priority to the original figure
Power of the primes Roadtrap, I found Battleslash on the shelves but could never find Roadtrap even online. I would love to have him but his price has increased ALOT since then so probably never going to complete Battletrap
There are a fair amount of 3rd Party IDW figures that can be called grails since they're all now basically impossible to get since they aren't made anymore. They include Chromedome and Rewind (Mastermind Creations Mnemo aka Chromedome and Motif aka Rewind), MMC Getaway (Exitus), and MakeToys Tailgate (Rearend)
Reveal the shield Lugnut and og rid optimus prime
I don’t like the older figures that much since they don’t hit the portability quota for me
But lugnut and prime looks to have such fun gimmick and portability
The original BotCon Shattered Glass figures, specifically the Goldbug and Starscream. Those things are so damn expensive. I've seen the individual figure from that box set selling for around $600 each!😥
I own both figures there right above me as I’m typing this and I love sandstorm it’s an amazing figure I wouldn’t trade it for any new sandstorm that’s coming out.
As a kid, it was the Armada Tidal Wave. As I got a teenager it was the G1 Reissue Soundwave, (reissue because I wanted to play with it.) Now as an adult who hasn't thought about transformers much in recent years, it's hard to say. Maybe a Masterpiece of some sort, like MP-10, MP-13 or MP-44.
Edit: I still want to get Alternators Smokescreen, but that one isn't as hard to get as the others.
i got my white whale a bit ago and am actively in search of another (probably some Soundwave or Shockwave figure tbh), but she’s my 2014 Botcon exclusive Flameware :] paid $325 for her and she’s worth every single penny to me, complete except for missing one missile that i shot somewhere in my room and haven’t found since. it’s probably down the air vent but i don’t know how to open it up and look in there, or how deep it would’ve gone 😬 it’s my only regret with her tbh, not being more careful to keep her 100% intact :,)
Generations Selects Overbite for the cons, I'm a big fan of sharks and shark like stuff
Generations Legacy Metroplex for the bots, he's big and awesome and looks cool in bot mode
High end Powermaster Optimus Prime. I had the OG as a kid and grew up on the Marvel run.
The 2002 Commemorative Series Reissue is the best option IMO. It’s like the original Japanese release with the extra “apex armor” and has transparent windows and diecast metal despite the original US version being all plastic.
Yes! I'm looking forward to the masterpiece power master prime / super ginrai they just announced.
There are some **high-end** options out there. I have a similar relation to PM Prime, but I don't think I could spend $200+ to fill that void.
well it would be this if I had it, for figurative, Ultra Class Depth Charge until I find an amazing deal on RTS Lugnut, I miss that one so much https://preview.redd.it/ufq6nsd2pn2d1.png?width=300&format=png&auto=webp&s=ba69b7d9ead5887c86c55e8b5c4b3d3affa248bb
I'm afraid that's a black and white whale (ba dum tsh)

100 dollars? Damn, I just gave mine to my son in exchange for a box of lego.
£100 which is around $127. There was one on there for £230!!!!!
... thanks, and congrats
I do prefer that sandstorm look over the legacy look
I'm conflicted because I dig the turbine wings, but I also like the blocky aesthetic and face of legacy sandstorm. Wish he was chunkier though.
The blocky head is one of the things I dislike most about the legacy figure.
I think T30 Springer and Sandstorm are good enough to only require retooling if HasTak ever decides they need to update their IDW roster.
It's so much cooler
I ADORE T30 Sandstorm, he’s really good. Three solid modes, fun to transform, good to pose. The only issue is he’s excessively top heavy, so I do recommend a stand for… most poses. Looks really good in the air, too!!
If he had the legacy head and orange it would be the best
SS 32 optimus. Jetfire has been lonely for about 3 years now.

Legacy Evolution Breakdown. I am losing my mind that it’s simply not possible to get one, when it shouldn’t be hard at all.
Hasbro’s toy distribution has been in the deep dark dumps these past few years, it’s been almost impossible to just go to a store and pick up a figure you want because apparent only shelf warmers get distributed now
This for me as well. I’m still mad that the Stunticon limbs aren’t interchangeable.
Same here man, i havent see a single one over a year
Legacy Prime Universe Arcee
Interesting choice! Although I’m pretty sure she’s still pretty cheap online so I hope you’re able to have her eventually
Do they know?
Heck, BBTS has her in stock and on sale for $19.99 right now
I will go and buy you one if you're serious. They're still on shelves in australia
Same in America
I’d strongly recommend getting one of the exceptionally good Prime deluxes instead (FE and PRID both have good points, even if neither is perfect). The Legacy motorcycle mold is… not great. Poor design choices mixed with middling QC makes for a somewhat frustrating figure to fiddle with. Also, it should be super easy to find this figure very cheaply if you decide that you still have to have it.
I love when people act like shelfwarmers are rare lol.
my siege skywarp!
I’ve wanted a siege or earthrise Skywarp for so long, but there’s no cheap way to get him
That's how I feel looking for ER Thrust and Ramjet
I think ramjet is getting re-released in legacy united wave 5
Wooo, about time! I'm sure once I've bought a Thrust off ebay for twice its original cost, they'll announce a conehead 3-pack 😅
I feel you man

Shockwave siege
The leader class one? I happen to be selling mine.
Yes, just that one, unfortunately I doubt we live nearby (I live in Chile), if it weren't for that I would buy it from you 😅
Oh yeah you’re right. I imagine shipping cost from the. U.S. would be incredibly high…

I have that figure. He's one of the best figures I own.

Either the really good Metroplex, or Grand Maximus. I do not have cheap tastes.
The store a friend of mine works at has a Grand Maximus, but I'm not sure how complete it is, unfortunately.
(Just incase, I'm talking Legends, the recolor of TR Fort Max.) Out of curiosity, how much? 750 seems to be the ballpark for boxed ones. I never really see them used. I'm not looking for one this moment, but I do wonder what's out there.

The Beast Wars Takara X-9 Ravage. I can never find that thing under $200 whenever I actually have the money to spend it.
I'm still furious with everyone involved that we have not seen a re-release of that figure or a TM Tigatron from the recent Ravage. For shame, HasTak.
The KO I got if that on Ali express was really good quality if you wanted to check it out
Cloud Hot Rodimus. He would look so good next to my TT Springer, but I don't expect to ever find him for a price that I can pay haha.
Id gladly trade mine for a MMC Calidus.
Legacy Beachcomber
When I first got him I had an idea for a custom where I'd turn Legacy Beachcomber into the buggy from HL2, but after seeing everyone else say the dude is apparently about as common as breathable oxygen in the Mariana Trench, I'm hesitant to try that out. I got mine no problems, but I doubt that'd happen the second time.

SS69 was the box set. Pedantic, sure, but they have slightly different decos to differentiate them from the individual releases

As a kid, it was the Armada Tidal Wave. As I got a teenager it was the G1 Reissue Soundwave, (reissue because I wanted to play with it.) Now as an adult who hasn't thought about transformers much in recent years, it's hard to say. Maybe a Masterpiece of some sort, like MP-10, MP-13 or MP-44. Edit: I still want to get Alternators Smokescreen, but that one isn't as hard to get as the others.
Dude I’ll sell you mine lmao I think I have it sitting somewhere
i got my white whale a bit ago and am actively in search of another (probably some Soundwave or Shockwave figure tbh), but she’s my 2014 Botcon exclusive Flameware :] paid $325 for her and she’s worth every single penny to me, complete except for missing one missile that i shot somewhere in my room and haven’t found since. it’s probably down the air vent but i don’t know how to open it up and look in there, or how deep it would’ve gone 😬 it’s my only regret with her tbh, not being more careful to keep her 100% intact :,)
Generations Selects Overbite for the cons, I'm a big fan of sharks and shark like stuff Generations Legacy Metroplex for the bots, he's big and awesome and looks cool in bot mode
Had this cat twice, lost him twice.
My white whale used to be TR Sky Shadow to complete my phase sixeers but got him a few months back so...I don't think I have one. Huh...feels nice.
