This isn't a popularity poll though. If anything, the poll is just popular with older people.Originally Posted by Gofigure

I agree, there'd likely be a correlation between a "How Old Are You" poll and this one.
I was 5 in 1984 - perfect age to grow up with Transformers.

Sure, but unlike age polls people won't need to revote on this one in future.I was mainly curious to see if the proportion of G1 and post-G1 kids have changed as more post-G1 kids seem to be participating in the fandom. When I first joined OzFormers, 100% of members were obviously children of G1. As of the time of typing this post, the poll results indicate 71% of respondents being children of G1.

I flicked between G1 and G2, and ultimately landed on G2. In reality, *my* G1 is Euro G1. Turbomasters forever!
I got into them because I had friends that had older brothers and they were amazing toys. The first toys I got were the gold box / cardback reissues, and then the Euro G1 releases.
I think I was in Year 4 / Year 5 by the time BW was out. Pulled away during Beast Machines, but was pulled back in by the first RID line when I saw Ultra Magnus - and I instantly wanted him, because I had always wanted one as a kid.

Was kind of going for the whole 'we are old' thing with that statement

I have been thinking about this thread and my kids... while they have watched G1, Beast Wars/Machines, RID (2000). They have actually grown up on RID, Prime and Rescue Bots. These are the cartoons that they get up and watch (when on) in the morning or they watch on Netflix. You ask them their favourite characters and its Sideswipe, Drift, Strongarm and Grimlock. Its only a few years away until they might be voting on polls like this

It was G1 for me, but early '90s reruns, not the original '80s broadcast. Likewise, the bulk of my childhood toys were Classic reissues with gold packaging.
