Transformers - War for Cybertron Trilogy : Siege ( Leader Class ) Astrotrain
Bought it at Taobao, total cost is SGD61.58... Considered quite a cheap price compared to the official retail price here... But really, this is just a Voyager class toy, with some additional plastic pieces which I don't really think is necessary... Heard that Earthrise will re-release this in a kibble-less version, not sure if it is true.... But the main figure is a good toy, in my opinion... Figure feels heavy, not sure why... Joints are relatively tight enough... Nice...

Transformers G1 Bumblebee ( Cartoon Face Version )
Bought this at the Santa's Warehouse Sale a few days ago, costs SGD10... This sale at Bishan CC has ended but there will be another run at Jurong Logistics Hub, from 19 to 22 Dec, timing please ask Google... Bought this because my other G1 Bumblebee has a masked face, while the KO Kabaya one has a Cliffjumper face... Need to be careful when pulling out the feet for transformation (have to press the foot with thumb and finger, then pull out the foot). Looks good with the other Bumblebees, especially the NA Toys design.
NewAge Toys NA 03 Harry a.k.a. Transformers G1 Prowl
The packaging say this is for age 15+... Bought it at Taobao at total cost of SGD29.69 ... Very expensive for a very small figure, but the transformation, plastic quality and articulation is pretty good, and quite worth the price. Comparing this to the MFT / MS Prowl, this is definitely smaller but cuter, and both are equally good. No place to store the weapons in car mode but not much of an issue as I am displaying it in robot mode.
NewAge Toys NA 04 Murphy a.k.a. Transformers G1 Bluestreak
The packaging say this is for age 15+... Bought it at Taobao at total cost of SGD31.55 ... Very expensive for a very small figure, but the transformation, plastic quality and articulation is pretty good, and quite worth the price. Comparing this to the Generations Legends Class Bluestreak, this has better articulation and g1-looks in both modes. No place to store the weapons in car mode but not much of an issue as I am displaying it in robot mode.

Transformers - War for Cybertron Trilogy : Siege ( Voyager Class ) Springer
Bought this cos this looks like the G1 style, no other reasons... instructions are in Chinese because it is the China retail version... Realised that I cannot resist G1 styled transformers... My set has pretty good ankle rock joints, hope they stay this way...
MFT (?) Mechanic Studio MS-19 MS19 Flame Commander a.k.a. Transformers G1 Rodimus Prime
Is Mechanic Studio also Mech Fans Toys??? A sub-company? Regardless, it appears to be going strong... Though my MS Sideswipe is now RIP-ed, having fall down from quite a height and broken the hip ball joint... Anyway, bought this as I don't have many Rodimus Primes in my collection... maybe I remembered wrongly... but this seemed to be quite a fun toy... I pasted the Autobot logo on the chest and car front piece... Plastic quality is good, similar / same as that of the recent MFT Ultra Magnus. The matt surface makes this figure looks better. Joints are reasonably tight too, and some joints need to be "run-in" a few times before having a smooth transformation. Strangely, this happens to my Siege Springer too. The targetmaster that comes with it seems a bit too big, especially in gun mode, but robot mode looks ok in proportion with Rodimus. And the nicest thing is that it can be held by Papa Toys ( PPT ) Hot Rod !!!!! So now my PPT Hot Rod can be a true targetmaster, with the true intention of hole on the engine fulfilled...
