Well, I’ve wanted to do this post for some time, but one thing after another kept me from getting it done. One of the things I do with my collection is alternate modes every other month or so. This is a pretty daunting task, but I like working my brain a bit and remembering each transformation, I think its a great mind exercise.
So, without further delay, here is my current, modest, collection as of today in alt-mode – you’ll note I keep my factions separate:

So there we are – that’s the whole collection for now, but obviously with Metroplex coming in this week, things will be added. Once I transform everyone into Robot Mode, I’ll post another update.
Very, Very nice! I have one shelf and my desk, so I sort of have to rotate pieces in and out based upon what I want to display at the time (under the terms of the smith-ford marriage act of 2011)
Thanks buddy! I run my business from home, so all of my stuff is in my office. According the marriage act of 2009 that I signed in on, as long as it doesn’t flow out into the rest of the house, we’re square! Lol.
Lol, it might look more impressive not broken up into separate pictures. I still really only focus on Classics/Generations guys, and some G1. Yeah, its the new MP Star Scream with the Coronation set. He’s awesome. I had US MP Skywarp for a while, but sold him on Ebay.
Thanks Ark, its small but slowly growing! I love USB Blaster, he’s VERY cool. My only complaint is that I wish a cassette could stay in his chest in Laptop mode, but that’s very minor. I bought a scaled down Shapeways rifle for him too, which looks awesome.

For some reason I thought you would have more than that. Got some great pieces for sure though. Your MP Starscream, is that the new mold?

It looks like a great collection! How do you like that USB Blaster?
