    Done.

    Like a few already, I was 9 when seeing G1 for the first time and after being conditioned by the marketing for Star Wars, then MOTU, I was smack in the middle of the key demographic for TFs, with the phrase "collect them all" still ringing in my head close on 30 years later!

    I'll be very curious to see the final results, but I think the mode will most likely be the 36-40 category.

    The Australian Bureau of Statistics lists Gen-X as 1965-1981 so I just get in too... but I think we are on opposite ends of the spectrum

    Damn, we are getting old.
    When we first started, most of us were around the 20 mark.... now the largest group are late 30s.

    And I used to joke about middle-aged toy collectors, or at least, not seeing myself ever being one... and now many of us are just about there.

    Well, I don't feel so old anymore. Every now and again I do wonder if I'm too old for this sort of stuff but then I get a metroplex and everything's alright again.

    This is a very interesting Poll.

    I believe I was 5 when Transformers came out. hooked.

    The fact that there are members who talk about their wife watching how much they spend on their collection and others who talk about setting aside a collection room in their new house... points to an older average age amongst the group.
