I have 2 things to say on the kid issue.

 

High shelf (have to stand on the bed to get to it)

 

And if I had kids.  Plexi-Glass. 

 

Picture shelves something like that, from floor to ceiling.  With plexi-glass keeping them from prying hands. 

 

I have 3 nephews...Uncle G will buy them their transformers to play with, or else the junker bin in the bottom of my closet will work.  No touchie the $300 or so Powered Convoy!!!

 

Thanks all for admiring.  Needs more G1 DANG IT!!!!

that is super nice

Very, very nice.

Where did you get those oversized Smokescreens?

Old Acquaintance of mine traded me something for the pair of them, many years ago.  I think he brought some back extra from Japan.  Have not seen them (or him) in years. 

 

I custom painted the Prowl my self last year.  There's better picts of it in the custom section.  Made the stickers for it as well. 

I took some more!

You aren't talking about the Weeter are you? I know he was heavily into a transformer style quake video game or something like that...

Weren't you into that as well? If so, that is where I'm making the association between you and the weeter, plus he also loved preTFs.

I wonder what ever happened to him... :tfsad

Meet my new screen name Himawari!

 

I am The Weeter.

:eek

K, prove it!

Q: What did you give me in return for 2 oversized korean fairlady bootlegs?

 

Q: I had sold a fairly difficult item to find to Robozone way back in the day, and rumor has it, you bought it from him, what was it?

 

Answer those, and I'll believe you!

Other than that, I just thought you were very similar to him, otherwise why wouldn't you know who /I/ was?

 

Thanks.                                              -Himawari

Didn't I post "Its been awhile since I talked to you?" on one of the earlier posts?

 

I'll have to think what it was I traded those super cool Prowls for.  Honestly I don't remember. 

 

Dave B can vouch for me, still kept in touch with him from time to time. 

 

The RoboZone one, I think that's the silver skids.  I got the Police Sideswipe from Hydra I think (if you remeber him).  Got my Switchblade from Helgi in Canada.  Never made that black Ironhide head...shoot if he still want's it I should get back to that.  Oh yea, got a junker Star Convoy off Dave Barry (Great Robot Base) for a HUGE amount compared to the remakes...just to get the fore head wing for my better one I got from Tony Preto. 

 

I do have your pict from my last Botcon, 95 wasn't it?  I was selling stuff with my now X, you Dave and I stood out in front of my booth and I talked about TFQ2 for a bit.  I had her around so I was kinda TF grounded.  And what a MISERABLE expirence that weekend was dragging her around.  I might have that a little mixed up, met you, Dave again and Helgi there.  And THAT was probably the best couple minutes I had that whole weekend.  I didn't even spend like $100 on a couple things to take home. 

 

I also seem to recall the week you came back from Japan, not only with a SWEET MIB Blue Bluestreak but also that chrome Smokescreen. 

 

How am I doing?

 

I just can't remember what the heck I sent in exchange for the dang Prowls.  (like the custom job?) 

 

Weet is a verb, means To Know...problem is I FORGOT!  (and if that ain't enough, I can tell ya the real origin of that old name)

 

I still got my hat, and my custom RID Sideburns, with the hoods in G1 style.  AND those black light Xmas lights. 

 

Used Backfire on TFQ board, and my email address at Yahoo is Backfire2187@yahoo.com.  Figured its a fresh start and sounds more TF like. 

 

Nice that somebody remembers me! 

 

Your secret is still safe with me, as is all the interesting stuff Dave showed me that he didn't want anyone to see. 

 

WEET!
