geebsSo, an update to this post, here's a list of G1 Transformers I had as a kid. I bolded the ones that have a recent update, whether 3rd party or the most recent "G1"-ish toylines like Combiner Wars, Titans Return, and Power of the Primes. I count RID and the movies as separate entities. And I have an asterisk next to the ones I have an updated version of:
Diaclone No.1 Countach LP500S (Red Sunstreaker)*
Diaclone No.5 4WD Hi-Luxe Trailbreaker*
Soundwave*
Buzzsaw*
Laserbeak*
Ravage*
Frenzy*
Mirage*
Megatron*
Camshaft
Downshift
Overdrive
Warpath
Bonecrusher*
Hook*
Long Haul*
Mixmaster*
Scavenger*
Scrapper*
Topspin*
Twintwist*
Shrapnel*
Inferno*
Smokescreen*
Astrotrain
Ramjet*
Blaster
Outback
Pipes
Swerve
Tailgate
Wheelie
Ramhorn
Eject
Air Raid
Fireflight
Silverbolt
Skydive
Slingshot
Blast Off
Runabout
Runamuck
Octane
Blurr (non-TM)
Hot Rod (non-TM)
Cyclone (Targetmaster vesion)*
Scourge (Targetmaster version)*
Ultra Magnus
Metroplex
Spectro
Spyglass
Viewfinder
Rollbar
Wideload
Cutthroat (again, not sure why I had just one of the Terrorcons)
Grotusque
Misfire*
Slugslinger*
Triggerhappy*
Guzzle
Backstreet
Crankcase
Ruckus
Quake*
Gunrunner
Free Wheeler
Roadhandler
Swindler
Tailspin
Meltdown
Half-Track
Direct Hit
Powerpunch
Fireshot
Vanquish
Krok*
26 out of 76, so about a third. I'm debating about TR Hot Rod, and Blurr. Maybe TR Octane (though its prolly cheaper to get in the set w/TR Blitzwing, and have all three Decepticon Triplechangers to boot), Legends Astrotrain or one of the 3p options. There's also Fanstoy's version of Reflector, which BBTS does have on sale, but that's still too pricey right now.
I actually regret getting MMC's Reformatted version of Cyclonus. Particularly with Fan Toys/Perfect Fusion's version in development. The FT/Perfect Fusion version has a more G1 aesthetic, and not only does he have the sword of the IDW version, but his Targetmaster partner to boot. Its like the best of both worlds. You know, I didn't get people sucking Fans Toys dick on the 3rd party boards, but between this, their version of Reflector, Jetfire/Skyfire, Dinobots, Insecticons, particularly Shrapnel (which I do have), they put out some high quality stuff. That being said, I wouldn't shit on other companies like some of these posters seem to, all, "Eh, I'll wait for the FT version!" about other 3rd party products that are pretty good!
