just got this figure today, I was never all that big into transformers, but war for cybertron changed that so I picked this guy up today and applied some weathering like I do with all armored badasses

I took the time to paint up Prime a bit. Had a blast. I've not painted a bot for a while.
Panel lines first. Unthinned flat black immediately wiped off. Then a steel wash and heavy steel accents of the panel edges. Then weathering with flat gull grey to add depth and dirt.
And photoshopped eyes.
Let's just take a moment to appreciate the styling on the Lancia Stratos racecar, on which Wheeljack was based. Clearly futuristic looking in the 1970s when these things were designed and built, I maintain it STILL looks futuristic today, in a world filled with cars that all look like smushed boxes and cross-training shoes.
The camera work is terrible. I thought I had Wheeljack more in focus, but it appears only part of him is.

Sunstreaker is here to... dry your hair?
I'm almost done collecting these Transformers. There's only a few left that I really want, and Sunstreaker was high on that list. Unfortunately I either ordered some when I was half asleep or something else went wrong, because I ended up with three of them. Originally I just wanted one for my daughter, but now everybody gets one!
I've been mostly pleased, but the quality has been all over the place. I got roped into this WFC line with the fantastic Hound, and some have been of that high quality, like Jetfire and the recent Optimus Prime. But others, not so much. Sunstreaker is one such. The yellow on his chest is noticeably and loudly different from the rest of the yellow. The chest also doesn't quite fit into its pegs in alt mode, making it look weird.
It's also been annoyingly hard to find some of the bots (like the second round of Seekers), and I've come to find out that Hasbro intentionally does that. I find that appalling, and unless I see something really outstanding, I'm going to intentionally avoid sending them money.
Still, it's been fun collecting stuff that was basically unattainable in my childhood, and Transformers are kind of like puzzles that you can take out and solve quickly and repeatedly.

Recently an elderly lady from my church moved to Florida, and she did not want to move this big double shelf thing. I hate shopping for shelves, but don't mind putting them together, so I said I'd take it. For some reason her daughter and son-in-law thought it could only be moved as a single unit, but I quickly realized I could break the whole thing down in about five minutes.
So I did, and crammed it all into Victoria's Elantra GT, secured it with pull straps, and brought it to our playroom, to which I've been wanting to add shelving for a while now. Previously, only the Dinobots were on display, along with the big guys down there at the bottom. I told the kids to get all their TFs out and we'd put them all up on these shelves.
This is our family collection, basically. Some are mine, but most belong to the children. It's not complete, but it does contain the characters we love most or that I had a special connection with as a kid, or that I had as a kid. Well, there's also some in there that we thought just looked cool.
There's only three missing that my brothers and I actually had as kids that I wish I could find, but they're all very expensive now - Thrust, Powerglide, and Octane.
This actually isn't the entire collection, either. I counted, and we have 8 Optimus Primes of various sizes and configurations, another 8 Bumblebees, five or six Megatrons, five Soundwaves, five Starscreams, four different Hot Rods and for some reason each of us has a copy of both Sideswipe and Sunstreaker (the War for Cybertron versions). I think I might've purchased things I didn't realize we already had.
The quality is all over the place. Some bots are great right out of the packaging. The materials still feel great, the joints are relatively tight, and everything looks fantastic. Others are a complete disaster right out of the package. Material feels cheap, joints are loose, fit is rough in vehicle mode, and the colors don't look right. And then there's everything in between.
I don't understand how serious collectors in this hobby don't lose their ever-loving minds. I mean this picture represents about 12 years worth of relatively engaged effort (looking at various toy stores every time we went, using Big Bad Toy Store and even TFSource). I can't imagine how annoying it must have been to try and assemble say, a Masterpiece collection or the entire Alternators line when they were out.
I guess that's why people buy third party stuff. I just find it annoying and confusing, though. Anyway, it was a fun journey, and maybe someday we'll find Thrust, but we're done for now.
Not shown: WFC Jetfire, the three main seekers in their Earth forms, and Hot Shot, who I got to know through the fantastic Transformers PS2 game.
War for Cybertron Optimus Prime
I nearly skipped this little Prime. The first shots of him did nothing for me. And then the good photos started coming out. Good poses and correct transformation. And I was smitten.
And he has a TON of ports for weapons!
Every Prime fan needs this little guy.

"Shockwave's experiments not only granted Grimlock a new alternate form, but increased his power tenfold. Unfortunately this was at the cost of his intelligence. While far from stupid, Shockwave's experiments have made it more difficult for the former field commander to think rationally and made his already prominent rage issues all the more severe. Fortunately his team, reborn as the Dinobots, have become more tight-knit than ever. Together they are helping overcome his disgust at what Shockwave has done to him and see the advantages of his new power."
