My most fave TF ..

well .. ??

what do you have in your collection that you consider your Gem
your prize TF in your collection ?

For me, its my G1 Fortress Maximus
got it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back for xmas of 87
it was the only thing i got from my parents that year ... but it was worth it
i have taken that thing into a sand box .. left it outside, carted it with me to college and back across where ever i go. it has been striped down part to part and reassemled back in 2000 (to get the sand*OMG from 87/88* out of the gears in the internal elevator <_<)

after all these years i am only missing:
The Dual Laser Gun
The Arms for Gasket and Gromet
MiniGun for Cerebros
+ sticker damage
+ usage wear

Now my kidz play with it *teehee* 80's engineering .. got to love it ^^

I've always said your kids were lucky lol

For me, some of my favorites in my collection are my Maximus Brothers, all three of them! I've had Fort Max since i was a kid as well, and I gained the other two as years went on. Alot of mine I got wile traveling the world as i did before the boom in the Transformer market really hit around 2000 or so, and though alot of them are the bigger price tag ones, I don't love them because of that, I love them more for the story connected to them.

My Stepper and Artfire for instance, were given to me in Paris France by a very beautiful model i know who literally tought me to dance in the plaza outside the Louve one night when I was in Paris. They were in a box in my hotel room the next day with a note that basically said she had no problem with me and mia and some other things. I shipped them back home and continued on my trip to see Mia.

my signed MISB TargetMaster Hot Rod is awesome too, my mentor is personal friends with judd nelson's father, and as a gift for my birthday one year, he got one, knowing I was looking for one, and asked Judd to sign it for me after explaining the whole thing with me and hot rod. Its signed "dear Lazarus, Dare to keep all your dreams alive.." and then his name.

I got alot more but I kind of feel like i'm bragging, and i'm not really into that.

Yeah.. neither of us had any idea what Kelly felt about you :-/ oh well, she's moved on and happy now, like we are *squishies me big scary undertaker looking Lazarus*

Umm... ok on topic!

My favorite Transformer of my own, is my Micron Legend Shockwave, yes, I call him Tidalwave and fly him around the house going "TIDALWAVE!!!" and stuff like that, unless me and big evil are having a Tidalwave fight then i'm like "SHUKO-WAVE!!", but still, I only got him because he's correct show friendly colors, anyway... he's the very first Transformer I bought for myself. Before that, when I would pick up a transformer at the store, i'd get one for me and one for Lazzy so we each had our own and stuff, but this one, was the very first one I bought completely because I wanted it. I have no idea why but I just love me some Tidalwave, he seems so huggable... almost as much as the new Bumblebee!

your want for hugging the new bumblebee scares me...
