Those HOC figures are getting quite expansive too, the wave with Galvatron, Grimlock, Rodimus Prime, and Devestator always goes for $10+ per figure.

E-hobby is the true face of evil for TF collectors. The older ones were made in limited numbers, making them hard to find and very desireable. Then the newer ones are trouble. When they come out, I really don't want them. The second they start becoming hard to find, I want them.

E-hobby minibots: Those things are completly weird. Do you really need them? A white bumblebee? Now that they're hard to find, I want them even though I got the TFC minibot-whores.

E-hobby Magnificus and Gameade: A black perceptor and a knock-off GI-Joe. Same deal there. When they were easy to find, didn't want one. Now that the supply is drying up, I want one.

E-hobby Insecticons: Red legs? Again, I already have a set of the bugs...but I'm starting to want these.

sick...it's sick...e-hobby is evil...

PMP is pimp. Huge box, looks impressive on the shelf.

TFC Starcream is essential for a TFC collector. Go get it now! The longer you wait, the more expensive it gets.

Type 1
e-Hobby "repaints" are nothing more than Diaclone reissues. (Blitzwing, Perceptor, Insecticons, Cobalt tapes)

Type 2
When a Diaclone and TF actually match, eHobby won't repaint, but do something really strange. (Gold Jazz, Green Inferno, Black Hot Rod, Clear Starscream, etc)

Type 3
When a reissued TF doesn't match the G1, eHobby will then go to work. (Megaplex = Megatron 16, Bluestreak = Silverstreak, grey Galvatron vs purple Galvatron etc)

Type 4
When all else fails, they'll start making shit up. The Minibot pack makes no sense at all ... Sunstorm was made from a Dreamwave Comic character ... Orion Pax?



Type 4 always commands the highest price. If you want a sound investment, Orion Pax is the way to go.

The Power Master Prime is really a starange US reissue. The US got the PMP back in 88.


the reissue looked like this:



why is the reissue so much larger? It comes with never seen before "God Bomber" or "Apex Armor"



the "Apex Armor" is a 2nd figure barely mentioned in the US reissue. Packaged seperately, he is one of the most rare figures.
