I did not have him, but always wanted him and Prowl because they always seemed to have teamed up on the cartoon. I only had Smokescreen as far as Transformers of this body type.

I didn't have any of the original Transformers, and I could probably count the ones I did have on both hands. Most of G1 Transformers were all traded a few years for GI Joe's. My did find my son playing with my old Runamuck the other day, I have no idea where he even found it, but he was loving it!

I had him. Such a bad robot figure.

I kept him in ambulance mode most of the time and would just take the back cab part off to transform that into the weapon platform.

Ratchet was one I got at a yard sale and I remember my Mom got him for 50 cents because I said the head was missing. I didn't know any better because on the show he has a head. For years I thought he was broken. Got Ironhide the same way.

TFCon is happening this weekend. Great summary of the 3rd Party Panel here (via TFW2005).

There are some ridiculously awesome things being revealed. A 3rd party modern Menasor from FansProject. I get a RHP from that. A Predaking from MMC!? A Sixshot!? Modernized Headmasters from FansProject! Including the Alligator from G1 episode City of Steel!?

I would be all over Predaking, and probably a few of the others. They seem sweet.

I had Cosmos. I liked playing with him. Always wanted to see him used in a cooler way than he was in the cartoon...though he did have his own episode, so that was cool.

I never had Cosmos, but my cousin did and I remember playing with him a lot over at their house.

Some of the 3rd party Transformers stuff looks really sweet. What are the typical price points on these figures? I'd love to get my hands on Twin Twist and Top Spin.
