 Pride Of Your Collection
What's the one toy that you would say stands out in your collection, or the one that you are most proud of owning. It doesn't matter whether it's a Masterpiece or Minibot, original MISB G1 or loose movie era toy... just whatever is your personal favourite.
Being a big Cheetor fanboy, mine is the Lucky Draw Perfect Choice Cheetas. I can't stand the Beast Machines Cheetor mould but I'm a completist as far as Cheetor is concerned and I'm trying to get all of the Cheetor toys, repaints and variants on the mould so it was definitely one on the list.
I never expected to get my hands on one, especially with there being so few of them produced and the cost of the damn thing but after a couple of years of trying, a lot of searching on ebay and a few hundred pounds later, I managed to get hold of one in time to put into my Cheetor display at AA2009!

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Well, I'd say Drift for the mundane choice... he's my favourite. But as for "special" items, I'd say...  This one!

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Right now it's original G1 Mirage. Then G1 Sunstreaker, mostly cuz they're quite hard to get ahold of!

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Tough call. I'd say either Overlord, Goodbye Convoy giftset, Liokaiser or Fort Max.

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Of my Transformers collection it would probably be either my little yellow 1984 Cliffjumper, or '84 Skywarp. Both of them survivors of my original collection from when I was a youngster - in fact they were my first two Transformers (bought Skywarp and realised he needed someone to fight). Skywarp has seen somewhat better days, and Cliffjumper is missing one of his tyres, but they are amongst my favourite pieces because they have proven real survivors.
Barring them it would be Overlord (but I have to say that, Giga and Mega will beat me up if I don't)

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
My pride and joy is my Detectas figure I got last year at AA, it's a chase figure from Japan and was the first one I opened out of three blind packaged boxes!

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Probably my Energon Wing sabre, currently attatched to prime, he is a brick, but he is one you dont find very often, and he's so pretty.

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
For me, it's a tie between my 20th Anniversary Optimus Prime, my limited edition Autobot Matrix of Leadership model, and my G1 Defensor (which I've had since I was younger)

 Re: Pride Of Your Collection
Both BMC where made to stay in the box due to the toy design. The Pred logo on the duck is great
