So Optimus has one hand that belongs to someone else, and part of the hinge that holds his trailer is missing, as is the rear ramp/panel. The stegosaurus dinobot has a broken leg, and i seem to have a confusing assortment of guns that may all belong to Razorbeak. Half their joints are worn out - esp Soundwave and the pterodactyl dinobot. If you want 'em let me know! Well i know you'll want at least *one* - I forgot I had him completely!

And I'm not procrastinating - I needed to put stuff away in my trunk anyway!

I'd drive down to Texas and hump your leg for Perceptor alone! You're a peach Lannie! <3

Also, I have a ton of hands and stuff at my parents' ... I bet I've got Optimus' other. I think I saw it. I thought you said you wanted to keep Prime, though? I couldn't take a wanted Prime from anybody... idk about you, but he was like my dad. The dad with a big gun.

But loose joints? Easy--crack 'em open, clean the ABS dust, and use nail polish to build up the plastic that's worn down from use.

I do wanna keep Optimus, Soundwave, and Lazorbeak - the others are yours, I just need an address :)

I have a second optimus. He has no hands and his smoke stacks are snapped, but if you want him, he is yours Buck.

Ok it's only his front I have, no trailer.

7.3.7 Freedom is the right of all sentient beings.
7/3/7 The big fucking robots are coming!

Yeah, so if you find out you need parts for love worn Transformers, lemme know and I'll dig through one of my battle boxes see what I can come up with.

I completed my set all save for a near mint Fortress Maximus (got a cat4 tho). Heck I still collect them somewhat, cept now it's "Ryder that collects them" not me ;)

Once of these days I'll build a display case for all my Cybertronian glory, but until then they stay safely nestled away under plexiglass and hidden from the toils of a 7yr old.

<--- big geek: The stegosaurus dinobot is called Slag. The pterodactyle is called Swoop, (as least I am almost certain about that).

You are correct.
And the white hand belongs to Ultra Magnus. His toy was basicly an exact copy of Optimus only his trailer could combine with his main body to form a supermode. Upon Optimus Primes death in the movie he passed the matrix of leadership on to Ultra Magnus wich the cryptic message that he should open it in their darkest hour. After misjudging when there darkest hour was and failing to open the matrix, it was bassed on to Hot Rod who became known as Rodimus Prime!

Wait, I actually was interested enough to wiki this, and I see the stego was actually Snarl. The triceratops was Slag. We were right about swoop though.

Yeah Snarl is the Stego, poor guy is one of the most forgotten Dinobots because he had little screen time and actually died in the background of one of the fight scenes around autobot city (where they 'killed off' lots of "extras" from the toy line), only to be fixed up and whole and nothing said of his bodily explosion as Blurr tried to push them onto the escape shuttle.

Neat tidbit about old Ultra Magnus; in one "universe" Ultra Magnus was a long time friend of Prime and chose to bear the body of the Autobot's greatest leader - it became part of his form. He was selected by Optimus Prime to be the next leader at his death, so it was only natural he become guardian of the last leader as well. This idea was later dropped by the time the storyline hit the American viewer. Since Ultra Magnus never appeared until the movie it was thought it would be difficult to tie in such a 'good buddy' that's never ever been seen before.

They explained it in some old comic writeups (the "writer questionnaire" in the back of each issue). And if you were lucky enough to get a first edition pre-movie run of Ultra Magnus it was written that way on his tech spec - super rare, like the Jetfire with the dual sticker set (allowing you to choose the autobot or decepticon sets).
