Thank you! It's not meant to disrespect, but to show that this old man can kick ss . Also I wanted the pic to convey the weight of leadership through his huge but slumping shoulders and imperfections in his finish. I also wanted the viewer to imagine the "cracks and squeeks" heard when his joints move while being the powerful force that he most definitely still is.

Yes! Among the imperfections, shiny he still is!

This toy is older than I am (literally, I was born in 1995, so I wasn't around for G-1).

LOL! OMG talk about making me feel old! I am 20 years your senior, young man! But I did get to experience G1 in all it's newness and glory.

Yeah lol. At least I have Transformers The Movie 25th Anniversary edition, and the original episodes are still aired on the Hub. I've seen all of season one, and about half of season 2.

Must be an awesome collection! But it's not complete (me thinks) without the original Prime!

Yeah even though it isn't complete, it's still an awesome collection but one Optimus was a rip off cause it was missing the actual figure, I only got the trailer and the drones for him.

I used to have this toy ages ago. It was one of my favorite toys in my childhood.

Same here. It's trippy if you ever get your hands on him again, how small he seems in our adult hands. I wasn't expecting that because I remember him being bigger...LOL.

For me, the toys have always been rather small. But I still remember how much fun they were to play with. And in the 80s, Transformers were the hottest toys around. They were especially fun to transform into their vehicle forms and robot forms and vice versa.
