My mom has babysat a little boy since almost the week he was born, and I've always tried my best to corrupts him. Because of me, he's addicted to video games, TV, and toys. Now he's almost 12, and he still comes over to play Legend of Zelda. Well, I showed him Divebomb, Battle Ravage, and Ricochet when I got them, and he was hooked. Constantly transforming them, asking about them, asking what show they're from, etc. And today, when he came over, he proudly showed me his purchase over the weekend, Alt Silverstreak. Hopefully, he'll start watching the shows too...anything to take him away from Pokemon, which was his last "addiction". :tftongue

Anyone else remeber back in the good old days when toys were shown not with some dumb simple picture, but amazing artwork on the back of the boxes? There was the whole string of G1 toys: G1 backer Dino Riders: A pic from toy archive and GI Joe: Pic from Yo Joe I think they phased out when CG art became big. Around the time Beast Wars came in the old school went out and we saw CG artwork and a mix of normal Photos of the toys on the boxes and cards. Sure there are a few toys here and there but it's not the same. Whatever happened to the days of overhyping a toy with great artwork and then dashing the childs dream with a simple toy?!

Okay guys I need a link from you all(Canadians included). Here is the situation, I have all of the Hasbro re-issues except Sideswipe, what I want to know is can anybody give me a link to a site that sells the USA re-issue Sideswipe. Bear in mind I do not, I repeat do not want the Takara version, I want the USA version, so I can keep my USA Hasbro re-issues up to date, besides it would look out of place with the Takara box among all the Hasbro boxes. Any help would be appreciated(looks directly at all the Canadian members).

what's the url for the Transformer's Obscure Character Archive? the site that people link to when they want to compair Vector Prime to the Last Autobot?

i have a theory about the animation model. i think it may be mistransformed.

Does anyone know where I can find some high-rez G1 box scans? Not just the box art, but the whole box.

my minicon incenerator has his right ball joint broken is there anything anyone knows to repair it????

but i can't find a design of an autobot or decepticon jack o lantern can so if anyone has the layout for one can they scan it so i can print it.

The flames on my Fab, Leader, and Robovision Prime keeps rubbing off! What should I do? :07dance

I read somewhere that there was a new and better way or at least a different way to transform alt. Skids. Or that there was a step left out of his transformation. A new way to do his neck/spine area......but I cannot fid where I read it, can anyone plz. tell me?
