Sick of seeing

[autobot1000]

i've only been collecting a few months now but every time i buy some attacktix you can guarentee who i'll get at least once...and im sick of seeing him. i now have 7 rodimus's.



anyone else have that problem (not just rodimus obviously)

[dvandom]

Actually, I almost had to trade for one at first. Now I have three, but two have been kitbashed.

I have 3 Rodimuses(rodimi?), but one is removed from its base, like an elephant for its tusks. I can't seem to get Starscream though, even though he's a Rare...

I have 12 myself

This is most of the reason I have stopped getting TF boosters I have 3 now and hardly use any of them. That and I only need 4 more figures.

Everyone has their figure that you can't get and the figure that you get a million of. It's hard to get a nice even distribution given the random nature of the toys - it's like baseball cards (for those of us that used to collect them in the good old days before they cost $5 a pack).

I just got a few Transformer packs the other day - for the first time (I'm branching out from SW finally) - and got a a Scourge in most of them. D'oh!

Well, I actually wasn't seeing very many rodimus and had to trade for them early on as well, but the distribution of the new boosters is pathetic.

Almost everytime I pick up 6 to 10 Star Wars S4 or Transformers S1, I have a run on the same booster getting at least 4 each of the exact same figures including chromes.

I have like 11 Megatrons. It is joke.

[autobot1000]

know how you feel. i have 3 megs but 2 of them are chromes

[ebiljawa]

Hey autobot1000, how much for 2? (One for...Attacktix, and another to kitbash)

|sf>I don't buy the TF packs very often any more (I have my complete set of TF Attacktix, but I have friends who need Starscream.), but I agree with the early lack-of-Rodimus and recent increase in Rodimus (I used to get hordes of Omnicons.) and especially an increase in the number of Hot Rods.

In fact, my last TF booster was a stray booster that was marked down at Wal-Mart last week and it was Rodimus and Hot Rod! I didn't mind the Rodimus (since I don't have too many of him.), but that was my fourth Hot Rod.

[autobot1000]

ok which one do you call hotrod coz obviously their names are diferent here in the UK (im guessing hot shot or excellion - blue or red varient depending where your from)

[Ramen Junkie]

I have a mess of Rodimuses too, I think I'm up to 4. What I need is an Omnicon. Apparently Dave has them all.

I'm trying to come up with decent Kitbash ideas. Rodimus' design doesn't lend itself well to repaints.

Also on another note, I thought Starscream was a Super Rare.

I have the exact same amount of Starscreams... which in my opinion is worse because that's six chances to get SOP, Landmine, Ransack, or any of the other super rares I've even now find missing from my collection... plus at 30 points it's not like I can use that many effectivly on a team (as I would... say a team of seven Wickets or GBG).

[autobot1000]

so you have all the starscreams i need...lol

[nosithru]

i gave up on the transformers a long time ago for the same reason. way toooooo many doubles, with only 18 figures and the ratio of rares to super rares this is gonna happen with every series. I now stop buying the boosters when i get about half of the series and try to trade for the rest
