Divebomb from Transformers Energon, circa 2004. Long after stopping collecting Transformers in the 90’s I saw this one in stores one day, loved the design and had to have it.

#pocketfig playtime 🤓
Today; watch me manhandle Core Class Iguanus - part of a recent mail- day bundle from @maqiotoys - - I managed to find all three of the Pretenders reworks there, all at once 😄 (okay maybe nobody else likes ‘em…). After checking out @mr_tarantoolus various shots of them, I just couldn’t resist…

I found the transformation quite easy and fidget-toy satisfying to complete. For a 3” bot, he does a great job in both modes! I *do* wish I had the other pieces from Hot Rod and Thundercracker to complete his sword weapon, but that’s a small gripe.

I gave him a lil’ Mega Construx Halo buddy for a rider, and borrowed a @blokees.official Megatron muzzle-blast (just so nobody gets confused whether they came in the box or whatever…)

I’m really glad to have the Transformers Cybertron Voyager Class Mudflap in my collection!

This figure is a fun and memorable addition to any Transformers shelf, especially if you enjoy the Unicron Trilogy era. One detail that always catches collectors’ eyes is the molded Decepticon insignia on the crane section, which is curious since Mudflap is primarily an Autobot in the series.

In robot mode, Mudflap has a sturdy, boxy construction-style design, yet somehow manages to look both streamlined and lean as well as powerful and stocky, giving him a unique silhouette on the shelf. The sculpted head and chest details add extra character that stands out compared to other Cybertron figures.

Mudflap also has a unique crane truck alt-mode, complete with a rotating and extendable crane arm that adds mechanical flavor to his design. Even though he isn’t the most articulated or flashy figure, his strong construction-themed design, unique accessories, and classic Cybertron-era aesthetic make him a standout piece that adds personality, variety, and nostalgia to any Transformers collection.

Overall, Voyager Class Mudflap may not be the flashiest figure, but his distinct design, unique crane alt-mode, and strong character presence make him a fun and memorable addition to the collection.

Mudflap appears in the episode “Race”, where he is introduced as a Cybertronian civilian living on Earth with the Autobots. Starscream and Thundercracker approach him and start a fight. Starscream stops the battle and tries to convince Mudflap to join the Decepticons, arguing that both factions want to save the universe but the Decepticons will do it without worrying about humans.

Mudflap, confused and frustrated with life on Earth, temporarily agrees to join them and leaves with Thundercracker. Later in the series, Mudflap eventually realizes he made a mistake and returns to the Autobots after reconnecting with his mentor Landmine. #transformers #transformerscollection #transformersunicrontriology #transformersfan

This Leader Class Starscream captures the look of the Transformers live‑action movies — especially the F‑22 jet alt‑mode with detailed panel lines and weapon placements that make it feel movie‑accurate. One of the coolest things about this Leader Class Starscream is how big and detailed he feels compared to smaller Transformers figures.

One of the best parts about having Leader Class Starscream in my collection is how big and noticeable he is compared with standard Voyager or Deluxe figures. Leader Class scouts like this are designed to be bigger and more impressive, and this Starscream definitely delivers that commanding presence on a shelf.

The Hunt for the Decepticons Leader Class Starscream is a larger, premium version of the typically smaller Starscream figures from the Transformers movie line. He transforms between a detailed F‑22 Raptor jet mode and a robot mode with lights, sounds, and solid articulation, making him a standout for Decepticon fans and collectors alike.

Leader Class Starscream is one of those figures that feels worth owning because he brings size, detail, cool features, and that classic Decepticon attitude to your collection. If you like figures that stand out, this one definitely does.

Because of his scale and design, Starscream becomes a display centerpiece — whether in robot mode standing tall or in jet mode ready for takeoff, he really elevates a Transformers shelf when added alongside other figures.

Starscream is an iconic Decepticon, and in Leader Class form he becomes a true centerpiece in a collection. Whether you’re grouping him with Autobots for a battle scene or placing him alone as a focal point, he brings a lot of character to the shelf. #transformers #transformersfan #transformersstarscream #transformerscollection #transformersmovie

I think it may be time to sell some of my collection & start reorganization of the ones that sit in bins under my bed. Having 2,500+ is awesome, but not if no-one ever sees them!

I just added Deluxe Class Crosswise to my Transformers collection, and he’s a standout figure! Crosswise is a sleek Deluxe Class Autobot who transforms into a futuristic sports car resembling a modified Bugatti Veyron with a spring-loaded spoiler missile launcher that fires a flame-shaped projectile — a fun play feature straight from the Cybertron toyline. What I really like about the figure is its sleek sports car mode, solid transformation, and highly poseable robot mode. The ball-jointed shoulders, hips, and knees allow for dynamic display and action poses, making it enjoyable for both play and shelf display.

Crosswise is a fan-favorite Cybertron Deluxe Class figure because of his sleek supercar design, fun Cyber Planet Key gimmick, and strong poseability for his size.

Overall, Transformers Cybertron Deluxe Class Crosswise is a strong and enjoyable figure that still holds up well years after its release. With a sleek futuristic sports car mode, solid articulation in robot mode, and the classic Cyber Planet Key gimmick, Crosswise delivers both fun play features and display value. The transformation is intuitive, the design reflects his tough bounty-hunter personality from the show, and the figure fits perfectly alongside other Cybertron Deluxe Autobots. Whether you’re a longtime Unicron Trilogy fan or a collector looking to add a unique Autobot to your shelf, Crosswise is a worthy and satisfying addition to any Transformers collection. #transformers #transformerscollection #transformersunicrontriology #transformersfan #transformerscollector

I just added Transformers One Studio Series Deluxe Class Bumblebee to my collection! He’s a display piece, a pose-ready figure, a transforming toy, and a collector’s item — the ideal combination for any fan. Bumblebee B‑127 is built with a “movie-inspired deco and design,” reflecting his look in Transformers One.

The sculpt and paint details hold up close‑up, which is important for Deluxe-class figures. Bumblebee has solid joints, allowing for dynamic robot‑mode poses. You can pose him in battle stances or display him in a lot of expressive, action‑ready ways.

The figure captures the design from Transformers One really well: the proportions, the mechanical detail, and the “Cybertronian‑car” aesthetic all feel faithful to the movie model. #transformerscollection #transformers #transformerscollector #transformersbumblebee
