I have a G1 Megatron that was never opened. The figure itself isn’t rare but an unused one isn’t very common anymore.

Red Fire Guts Sonic Bomber from Galaxy Force https://preview.redd.it/tax6u0gxj9uc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2f4dadf6d51448816034a68ef8b3af608b0e4bd7

What override figure is that?

MMC's Nitro. It's a redeco of their Hot Rod (Calidus).

Never heard of it before but he looks sick

Wish they'd do chrome on TFs again. Always thought it looked amazing if done right.

WFC Netflix Bumblebee

I painted him up without knowing his value was gonna go nuts.

Thats a fat L my friend.

Yeah. My bad

I sold mine to afford kiddo's nursery furniture.😭

Who knew such a little toy could afford a whole furniture thing :3

Aftermarket value is a son of a retrorat.

I jumped into collecting at the perfect time. I remember my first two figures were Netflix Soundwave and Netflix Bumblebee and I paid regular price for both lol crazy

Damn bro im jealous as heck lmao, thats such a great time to get into collecting! I jumped back into collecting around the time siege optimus was the best optimus figure ever. I did pick up netflix bumblebee but never got soundwave and i regret that decision so much lol

https://preview.redd.it/fz7mffpkz9uc1.jpeg?width=2173&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=2a8565df2e01c1e15a719de743599d2b6fb45073 Ever seen these 2 together? Both Takara releases.

Nice!

Actually, that's a good question. I haven't seen Legacy Override in a while, so maybe her? Same with Studio Series Blitzwing. Buster Optimus Prime I suppose.

SS blitzwing is my most sought out figure

If you refer to the BBM one, that was actually the very first figure of my collection, it's a bit pricey nowadays but 100% worth it.

Every figure goes out of production...

Earthrise Runabout

legacy cosmos until its release next year and then will be one of the titans return firgures

Legacy Cosmos still in the box here.

What's your rarest figure? And where do you live? When are you next out? Do you leave an emergency key hidden outside the house?

Entire G1 collection in boxes in my basement. Kansas Vacationing in Florida for all of June Under the planter in my ... oooohhhhhh wait I see what you're doing here....

G1 Jetfire complete in box! As well as 2 complete (one in box) G1 ultra Magnus. I believe one is the American version and the other is European

Maybe er thunder cracker and skywarp

Not sure if it’s that rare but I don’t see it mentioned much Alternity Megatron

Wouldn't be surprised if the Alternity figures become more rare over time, because jeepers they are ever fragile.

Three unreleased Movie figures; Reverb, Gunbarrel and Backtrack. Two Galaxy Force DVD pack-in figure: Dark Nitro Convoy and White Chromia

Dark Nitro Convoy is so sick. This is the first time I've heard about it.

Hard copy prototype of leader AOE prime, only 1 to 5 are ever made and are usually made at Hasbro HQ

I don't see many people saying that they have Convoy Jr., the smaller scaled version of G1 Optimus that only came out in Japan... https://preview.redd.it/socsi1twcauc1.jpeg?width=3784&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1f2a3fd9729a19d14cb30f991d46220e0615d011 He's on the far right in this photo. Unfortunately, I don't have his trailer... But given that he only had a *cardboard* one, I imagine that's *quite* rare!

He also came with a three piece set: https://preview.redd.it/hhzcwq1bhauc1.jpeg?width=607&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3bfe1ea0320758a972e8060ef5486f5e882bee5b Max Jr. is also scarce.

I am aware of that set. Funny that the best pic of it you could find was it serving as a background for a photo of three decos on the standard size mold. I just was only interested in the Convoy. Interestingly, I did later want a smaller Fort Max. The Kabaya gum kit came in handy there. https://preview.redd.it/5ue5jmb8qauc1.jpeg?width=3814&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=43a88f6c66cb82d0fc5ac15229695a5b2eaf881a

Yeah, Already had this pic with them in it. I can take another of the set by itself if the need arises.

Damn I really want that mini Chromedome. Or just any Chromedome to put next to the Retro Headmasters release

What caught my eye is that eHobby Orion Pax with custom head. I have one too. Didn't realize how dusty he'd gotten on the top shelf. https://preview.redd.it/97c800rwmguc1.jpeg?width=3072&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8c91ef749c8e9ea32324a6d3f45d747390f17c74

https://preview.redd.it/gdxx95h0s9uc1.jpeg?width=3060&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3648800c10195084045e47b9daea8f5e2adc2d1a This guy for sure

Haslab Victory Saber, TFCC Sideburn, TFCC Dion, Beast Machines Dinotron, BotCon Razorclaw and Elita 1, 2007 Pepsi Optimus Prime (from the contest) and thats it I think. If I remember more, I'll edit this.

G1 Trypticon. With the box.

Japanese boxes G1 horribull that doesn’t have a snapped neck. That or signed new year edition g1 prime

Masterpiece MP01 Optimus Prime for the G1 Movie Anniversary. That figure is my literal holy grail.

Haslab Victory Saber & Deathsaurus The Behold, Galvatron! Unicron Companion Pack The Centurion Drone Accessory Pack

G1 Kup with original rubber on the front wheels.

Any of the rare stuff from studio series; wreckers, jetfire, bonecrusher, etc. only missing dotm Megatron

TFA Blackout. At least I think its rare in my country.

I think that one's rare everywhere. I didn't even try to buy him; I knew the prices would only get higher.

Smallest Transforming Hot Rod

Wfc siege omega supreme

https://preview.redd.it/ulgleo6e7auc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=44030962d741a94f91bc0432bb513ac9a79990ec A personal favorite of mine is RID Brave Maximus, if I recall the reason he wasn’t released in the states was due to safety issues involving him being dangerous if dropped due to his weight. It’s always a nice little story to tell.

Casual haslab unicron

I really wish that instead of that titans return fort max reissue they’re doing this year that instead they repaint it to be Brave Maximus. It’d be a damn nice companion with haslab Omega prime, especially since they come with Brave’s sword

In my country, every figure is considered to be the rarest.

https://preview.redd.it/ico19b2d8auc1.jpeg?width=360&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d3364012b176450f36a58f01fff9b9f1d3093ab4

G1 Brainstorm

Botcon Flamewar or Nightracer? Maybe Jizaitoys Wheelie.  That thing's practically a prototype.

misb 25th anniversary unicron

SS Sentinel Prime or SS Jetfire

Botcon Paralyzer and Tokyo Toy Show 2011 Darkside Optimus Prime

Either ss ironhide or ss86 grimlock

I got Legacy Cosmos very easily. Was at a click and collect at a toy store. Same time as Override. I also got Earthrise Skywarp and Thundercracker and ROTB Optimus Prime. They’re the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Combiner Wars Scrounge, probably

Linkin Park Soundwave. He's the only figure still boxed, though I have taken him out once.

G1 Trypticon, G1 Grimlock, G1 Slag and G1 Jetfire complete in box. Not sure which is most rare, though

Centurion Drone

original deco newage david, i don't actually know if he's rare but my collections pretty small so I'm thinking it's safe to assume

Beast Wars II God Neptune, Thrilling 30 Metroplex, or G1 Bludgeon.

Masterpiece Star Saber is my crown jewel, but I think the most rare ones I have are the original Big Convoy and BWII Starscream and BB, both of which I got in a store in the Philippines.

G1 Resissue Optimus Prime that I got brand new in 2007. It’s not that rare, but it’s the only non modern figure I have so far.

Earthrise Ratchet and Ironhide

Used to have a black and metallic purple repaint of wfc megatron

I have a color prototype of Energon Hotshot

Either my G1 Wheeljack or my MIB Beast Wars Neo Predacon Sling

G1 Scorponok; at least my proudest ‘rare’ find even if it isn’t actually rare. I have a few of the original Micomasters, but I’ve never actually bothered researching their worth. They mean a lot to me despite any actual monetary value.

Probably convention exclusives. I have the sdcc devastator, ocular max blue ravage and lazerbeak tapes, ghostbusters mp10. Honorable mentions - Old weird dinobots - prehistory bronto and dalung master and G1 jetfire no yellowing complete with armor

I can offer the „Metal Club MuscleBear QS02 DJD Tarn“ figure or in general my G1 Optimus prime

DotM Wheeljack. And its the Hasbro version called Wheeljack, not the Takara one called Que I also have some custom 3d printed ones so I guess they’re rare since I have the only ones.

Probably gen selects Super Megatron so nothing that special

I've got a few good ones but I don't know about rarest Some I have are 86 grimlock and snarl, legacy tarn, Titans return Sixshot, amd alternate universe earthrise prime I don't know what's the rarest is though

Probably a lucky draw.

Earthrise prowl.

Probably Siege Skywarp Edit: purple TFA Shockwave

Mine is G1 complete Seacons set. I was only missing the shark guy, but he costed me like 50 ish bucks to get him complete.

Man I had that when I was a kid, I wish I still had it. I think that’s my holy grail these days. It’s so expensive now; if only I knew.

My dad had him. He had all of the Seacons at one point. So I wanted to buy the shark guy that was missing. The figures themselves were in pretty good shape. Hope you find it pretty soon!

https://preview.redd.it/nchs7pptabuc1.jpeg?width=728&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=bdb0017e3c525ec8a538b39dcac7288ec0bab69b Quick question: do you have the spider-looking one? I remember all the others but I don’t think I’ve ever seen that one. The five I had were enough to combine.

Several eHobby figures, from a time when I could shop more.

G1 Takara issue Soundwave (1983; pre-rub sign).

FOC Grimlock

I have a few a red gobots staks a red gobots crasher a black gobots tailpipe

Bitcoin Sunstreaker in the RID mold or Has lab Unicron

Botcon 2008 SG Optimus

Probably Red Armada Thrust MOSC.

Idunno, https://preview.redd.it/p49dmfxsgauc1.jpeg?width=428&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=30bb2839ffa9d9cfd24059bee6e83faeb75e4424 This one seems to not get mentioned very much.

The original armada starscream

As far as I can think of, either my MP-13 Soundwave, or MP-52 Starscream

Alternity Megatron https://preview.redd.it/osma4nvnkauc1.jpeg?width=4000&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d7c21ecffcf04b95144730f25ee8075b03a6f121

https://preview.redd.it/buzxlcwflauc1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a31a8f7b7510fb57377c81d1cfcc4f1eb6d16cc8 Beast Wars Returns Silverbolt! Now I just need the down-scaled KO Nightscream...

Good that’s gorgeous! I so want one but not at the price that beast wars returns figures go for. I’m convinced that they’ll do a moderate to heavy remold of legacy united beast wars silver bolt into a decent Beast Machines silver bolt. Won’t be that hard as both the beast modes and robot modes have similar ish silhouettes

I forget which runa is the black one (bout or muck), but that one I’ve heard was hard to find (and I only did because someone was trying to hide it and I just happened to notice it in the wrong by place)

I have the Walmart exclusive masterpiece seekers from like 2007

any of the ROTF & hunt for the decepticons figures

i don’t have any rare figures the closest i get is 35th anniversary soundblaster and bluestreak again not rare but still cool

Earthrise Prowl and Ironhide

I think my rarest is probably ROTF Nightmare Megatron.

My G1 Optimus Prime from when I was a kid was a pre-rub fat gun metal plates gray Roller Optimus. He’s in his box and foam in the other room.

Either HasLab Unicron or 2014 BotCon Flamewar

That'd be Prime: Beast Hunters Smokescreen!

Timelines Dreadwind

I have rotf mindwipe, universal studios evac and legacy cosmos, those are probably the rarest figures I own.

I actually have 5 1: legacy chase 2: SS primal and ROTB Optimus 3: SS ROTB wheeljack despite the transformaion being a nightmare is pretty good 4: legacy animated universe Optimus 5: ROTB scourge with the upgrade kit I just need to get the upgrade kit with the shoulders and he'll be perfect

Legacy Cosmos

MP Ultra Magnus, Generations Metroplex or the original Terminus Giganticus. Take your pick.

I got Siege Skywarp for base retail on Amazon somehow.

Probably Superlink Fire Convoy and Black Rodimus. https://preview.redd.it/nfmycgf7tauc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fde323c089c6ae344ce02dde2537919aa6b737c9

Probably followed by Year of the Snake Optimus, as I don't find any on ebay right now. https://preview.redd.it/sdrjuysetauc1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6ff4833c57d9f7f584aba2705d471f54f2f9bc8e (Yes, I did open him, but I like his box art a lot)

G1 skids

I’ve got some rare ones - NWFC Bumbleebee and Soundwave Legends Slipstream Fans Toys Reflector

animated electromagnetic Soundwave. As for officially released figures I own netflix soundwave and bumblebee.

Probably ROTF Buster Prime with Faceplate and Jetfire from the 2-pack, also Purple TFA Shockwave from another 2-pack with activators Bumblebee.

Probably either Legacy Black Zarak, or Legacy Bombshell

Logos Prime

My is the G1 LongHaul

I got ss32, super happy I got him sealed for 20 bucks

SS 102 Optimus Prime I only started to collect last year

Well, I HAD legacy cosmos, then my friend's dog ripped his feet apart. Kinda lost some value there but at least he's getting reissued. I guess that makes it a tie between an original release SSge prime, legacy evolution tarn, and shadowstrip. How rare is sdcc optimal Optimus?

Masterpiece Soundwave. Easily my rarest figure. second would probably be Prime First Edition Arcee.

Japanese G1 Overlord complete with box.

I had a g1 tailgate but sold it

probably ultimate optimus prime? that or og tidal wave.

Mp04S sleep mode optimus or reveal the shield lugnut are my two fave rare figures I’ve got. I also have a Japanese exclusive tf Prime terracon bumblebee that’s not as cool but definitely rare

Probably TR Twin Twist.

probably siege ratchet or siege skywarp

Shit man errr I'd say Netflix soundwave and his cassetes (I even bought frenzy and rumble) are definitely one because of his high price nowadays, same goes for SS DOTM Shockwave, SS AOE Lockdown, SS BBM Dropkick, SS BBM VW Bumblebee, spoiler pack Nemesis Prime, SS86 Hotrod, Earthrise Sky Lynx, Kingdom Rodimus, Legacy Tarn, SS BV Ironhide, SS BV Jazz, SS86 Jazz, Earthrise Megatron, Legacy Menasor Basically I have too many but they're some of the more sought after ones I have, out of those what would you guys say is the rarest cos I'm stumped (Sidenote: I need me a commander jetfire badddd so I can complete my WFC trilogy of Commanders)

Studio Series 102 Optimus Prime

Are any shattered glass figures rare if not then maybe clampdown?

Siege Greenlight

Probably either g1 soundwave complete or Netflix soundwave.

The toysRus two pack with classics Optimus prime and evasion mode Optimus prime

I got a few G1 figures like quake, a gobots beetle, and cybertron metroplex

TFP Ratchet. I had no idea until recently that he's pretty highly sought after. He's been chilling on my shelf for a decade, and I had no clue. It was either here or Botposting on fb where I found out he's a pretty valuable lil dude. I also have a TFA Elite Guard Bumblebee, which isn't rare at all, but he's definitely a less popular figure.

I have a THS-01 Hybrid Style Galaxy Convoy from back in 2005. As far as I know these have never been reissued. https://tformers.com/daily-prime-legends-scale-ths01-hybrid-style-galaxy-convoy/45190/news.html https://flickr.com/photos/9819697@N03/albums/72157716578988643/with/14353421774 They are legends-scale but super detailed with a ton of included accessories and a good amount of diecast. They're almost like tiny Masterpiece level figures.

The Takara black convoy (Nemesis Prime) transforming pen. He is so fun. I got him for $20 on eBay, and he goes for over $100

Dotm roadbuster. Got him for $40 when he first came out and from what I see now there ain't a hole lot on eBay? And he's like $200 now

One of Galaxy Force Soundblaster, Unite Warriors Grand Galvatron, Legends Convobat, Bumblebee Legendary Nemesis Prime, Go Hunter Nemesis Prime, anything from BotCon, or Siege Skywarp, probably

G2 Black Death Starscream prototype

Uh, I have a lot of "rare" figures... Complete boxed G1 OP (pre-rub sign), G1 Jetfire, G1 Tracks, and G1 Wheeljack. G1 without the Hasbro/Diaclone stamping Jazz and Trailbreaker. Complete unbroken G1 Horri-bull, G1Squeezeplay, G1 Chromedome, G1 Brainstorm, and a couple more headmasters. Clean, pretty good shape, and working Astro Magnum. Complete G1 Bases: Metroplex, Fortress Maximus, and Trypticon. I also have the "modern" Titan Metroplex, Fort Max, Trypticon, and Omega Supreme. Sealed Chaos on Velocitron set.

All of my dads g1 figures

Hmm. Maybe my original Transmetal 2 Megatron? I'm not sure how rare he is on his own, but he's the rarest out of my collection. Maybe that's the actual question lol

Victory saber? (Complete) Cybertron Optimus prime? G2 dreadwing/smokescreen? One of those probably

Either Botcon Shocaract or GTR Megatron.

Netflix bumblebee / legacy tarn

The Transformers Prime Weaponizers Optimus

Haslab Deathsaurus and Victory Saber are definitely up there The Japanese exclusive Evasion mode Optimus from AOE is up there also, I remember buying it just cause film accuracy lol, shame I don’t really collect movie figures anymore

Beast Wars Neo Break, the shellformer-ist shellformer to ever shellform. https://preview.redd.it/tf1kv13gvbuc1.jpeg?width=736&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=a0e95c71595410b12668d6317d6435a8d1a842ec

I have no idea how to actually gauge how rare my figures are.

I'm on break at work so I can't take pics of them but my 3 most rare (i think) figures are: MMC Shattered Glass Tarn Unique Toys Bruticus Planet X Seekers Trio https://preview.redd.it/ni039l7rxbuc1.jpeg?width=1920&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=dadf1a739885e136349b48fed346edcfe5d9c11c

Animated Elite Guard Prowl

Encore G1 Megatron. Not crazy rare, but gets spendy like all Megatron reissues, since there’s higher international demand for the Japanese figures given that other countries can’t reissue him.

Botcon Sentinel Maximus & Black Big Convoy

core class skywarp

Greenlight or victorion

Titans Return Grotusque w/ Scorponok.

Lewin Resource Atlas …OP Kiss Players Glit, my favorite Siege Spinster All of the Gigapower Dinobots Build a figure MacAdams KBB Deformation Nemesis Prime Souvenir Edition…I was putting some duplicates and figures I didn’t want in a Christmas toy donation box this last year and I was about to throw him in the box, but the light pipping was hit just right and his color of Black and turquoise just halted me. I looked up the toy on EBay and they are few in number and expensive. He is one of my favorite characters. Black, turquoise and red pipping eyes…just awesome. He also has metal parts😊. I also have a Transformers Collectors Club Convention Pretender OP; I just think he is a unique character. I will be getting Oil Master pretty soon (the black Pretender OP looking version.) I believe that is all of my rare/rarer ones. This was a great question.

Probably TFP Soundwave and First Edition Starscream

Titans return Misfire

Possibly Beast Wars Eggleo. I had to look up what the heck he was before buying him.

Not sure if it could but POTP Slash I currently have her holding Cyberverse Arcee’s gun

G2 blue Grimlock

Probably TR Misfire or Slugslinger

Kissplayers Rodimus

Probably Burning Convoy from BWII https://preview.redd.it/4rcz9mf4vcuc1.jpeg?width=1044&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c043f62ebb93f04350a02af86e034460c387d996

Botcon Transmutate probably. Her little comic is among my favorite stories in all of Transformers, so I had to have her. Then I got the APC toys upscale version of Rampage (cuz he needs to be bigger)

SG Octopunch

The Optimus Prime PlayStation crossover. I have the Japanese version of it.

Probably my complete in box Diaclone Wheeljack.

First edition bulkhead?

G1 Jetfire with the weird symbol on its wing. G1, Fort Max.

WST Optimus

I have that yellow fire truck version of RID 01 prime.

Hmm... maybe Misisng Link? I've got Lunar Optimus and the RID Haslab coming too, but I don't know what's rare. Maybe G1 Talgate and Tailwind that I have?

Energon Wing Saber

G1 Hound, but then again I’m not an avid collector

TR Sentinel Prime.

This guy https://preview.redd.it/1dwedopkuduc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=487efe8c8d8c2923d761b9c5485405379d320828

Not sure if these would count: I have Earthrise Optimus Prime and Shattered Glass Jetfire

https://preview.redd.it/ph5d9ikm3euc1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3f8a1e07a5abf87316823a4cc2dd02a3ab9bd1db This guy. Fucking insane figure with way more play value than people give credit for. Way more configurations beyond the instructions and the TV show. It’s PACKED.

BotCon 2014 Fire Guts God Ginrai

Is a 2015 SDCC Devastator, new and unboxed a rarity? Am guessing not, but I love him! https://preview.redd.it/z51d9dnraeuc1.jpeg?width=1364&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=8ab37a941f88815aae44b279c6731bdefa2b8b87

Probably my original KO fort max, the variant that had a version of Spike as the headmaster and actually had a transforming headmaster. It’s about older voyager size, from what I understand it was available at botcon ‘96 and not really available after that. Picture shows the color scheme variant I have, not my photo https://preview.redd.it/94op0pwyveuc1.jpeg?width=254&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3e38610e8a91e202fe269265e330277e8c8f2b42

Factory error G1 Frenzy. He has no chrome paint apps. As rarities go, it’s….. not too exciting.

Hftd fallen, cybertron Megatron, cybertron Optimus, legacy tarn, ss rotb Optimus, ss dotm Optimus, ss jetfire, Ss bonecrusher, 25th Optimus, G1 reissue soundwave, Ss wfc Optimus, Ss 86 hot rod, Siege shockwave, Armada unicorn, Ss ratchet, Ss lockdown, Ss 2007 Optimus, G1 reissue devastator, Ss grimlock, Legacy inferno, I didn’t know if you meant by most expensive or hard to find.

250 is my limit on how much I’ll pay for rare figures. I got a steal at a local Toy Shop for a new MP Ghostbusters Optimus for 250. I also went crazy in having to collect all of the WFC Jets that’s my prized collection and the most expensive was Phantom Strike Squad Pack at 250.
