Some of you might know that I've been chasing after a goal that I set about 8 months ago. I've been frantically working to get the number of galleries on the site to an average of 1 new gallery per day since the galleries launched on January 4th, 2004 (3 years and 5 months ago). As of this evening, I've finally, at very long last, reached my goal. Woo hoo! This might not be a big deal to anyone but Seibertron.com and me, but I can finally say that Seibertron.com has officially met this goal. It's been an awful lot of work but I enjoy doing it, especially with all of the positive feedback I receive regarding the galleries.

The last batch of galleries that were launched this evening to reach this monumental goal was none other than the G1 Aerialbots. Make sure you check out over 450 photos of Silverbolt, Slingshot, Air Raid, Skydive, Fireflight and their gestalt form Superion by clicking here! You can view all of the G2 Aerialbots, Universe Micromaster Aerialbots and the Energon Aerialbots by clicking here.

After you're done checking out the Aerialbot galleries, make sure you stop by to view the rest of the Seibertron.com galleries that have been posted.

My next goal: 100,000 photos (there's currently 87,194 photos online).

Me neither! That's an amazing accomplishment! It's a great resource to look at upcoming figures and an awesome reference guide for figures of the past. Keep up the great work! ;)^

Well while we are on the topic....anyone got a spare fireflight or slingshot?

That's awesome, Ryan. Yet another reason why seibertron.com is the ONLY place to go for everything Transformers. I remember when I first decided that I'd mainly just check Seibertron.com for TF stuff, and you've exceeded any expectations I had by light-years. Truly, you do a great service to the Transformers community, and you have my sincere gratitude. Seibertron.com kicks ass!

Great galleries, Ryan! Superion and the Aerialbots always were my favorite combiner team. And that set is in great condition! Was that an eBay purchase? How much did it set you back?

Congrats Boss Monkey. I always browse through the galleries of a figure when I'm deciding to get it or not. And many I just browse through to see what the other figures of past and present are like. If you do a gallery of Sixshot, Sixknight and Greatshot, I'm sure they would put you alot closer to your target of 100,000.

My friend and Seibertron.com member donfonz sold it to me for $150 if I recall correctly in February 2006. I spent another $25 on brand new sticker sheets for these guys on eBay not too long ago as well. I think the only gestalt I'm missing now is Liokaiser. Well, Liokaiser, Battle Gaia and Guard City that is. Ack!

Greatshot and Sixknight are near the top of my want list ... just have to find them at a decent price ($200 something for each would be reasonable, stickers unapplied). They're not must haves just yet so in the meantime I'll keep biding my time until I see them for relatively cheap.

Just kills me though because I have a beautiful conditioned Quickswitch MIB stickers unapplied that I snagged off eBay last year for about $90. I've been dying to do his and Sixshot's galleries (I have the reissue and an original). I might possibly do their galleries ahead of being able to do their Japanese variants but we'll see.

Heh heh ... I think I've already taken over 12,000 photos on it since I got it at the end of February.

God Bless Ya Brother!

I got a new camera myself that same week and its already shot! As a P.S.A. I'd like to warn all readers away from any Olympus Stylus XD cameras.

My job buys them in bulk, and with as quickly as they bust, I can see why they need to. I've had disposable camera with a longer lifespan than these!

Any chance of Alternators Camshaft? I know he's rare but he shouldn't be beyond Seibertron's reach. Its very difficult to find pictures of him online (which goes to show how rare he is I suppose).

News Credits: 8 · by **Liege Evilmus** » Mon Jun 04, 2007 2:58 pm

Oh, and in celebration of the recent galleries, I thought it would be cool to remind everyone of this...

Yeah, he's on my short list at some point here most likely after Botcon. This month's galleries will consist primarily of the new movie figures, the Dinobots and G1 Thrust, Ramjet, Ironhide, Ratchet, Dreadwind, Darking, Buster and Hydra. I want to get all of the original versions of the Botcon and Movie characters posted so that people can look at both the old and the new.
