    And second, that's an expensive 21st, could have spent $200 or so max... A couple of kegs and a backyard is all you need

    Before whose 21st? Your GFs? I don't know man, tell me when it was and I'll tell you where I was before it....??

    Or do you mean my GF? Well to be honest I've never had a GF who has turned 21 while I was with her so I can't tell you..

    But I do know I wouldn't pay for it, so respect for that, I guess...

    Dude that is some crazy shiz. I'd understand someone doing that for a wife (barely), but a girlfriend? Not even a fiance? I'd burn most of my TF's before selling. And especially for a party!? Not a mortgage repayment or bill, a party!

    Sorry dude not trying to offend but the mind boggles.......

    Well thank you for the Springer and Ultra Magnus then.

    Was after a complete Springer for a while so I'm glad it helped pay for your gf's party!
    May we see pics of her and the party please?

    In my oppinion if a girlfriend expects such a sacrifice from me for just a Birthday Party I would dump her on the spot!

    Anyway, is she is still your girlfriend? I hope she is

    Yeah... I... I just cannot imagine selling off my entire collection for something as - to me - frivolous as a birthday party?? As Hereticpoo said, I could understand it if it were for something personally important/vital like housing, food, education etc... but a party?! Sorry man, but that's kuh-razy!

    I would have to be starving and on the verge of being homeless before even considering selling twenty-four years of TF collecting. That's twenty-four years of your life man!!!

    Also, I gotta say this, I've never heard of someone having to pay for their partner's birthday party. Seriously. If my wife asked me to completely fund - not just a party - but a massively HUGE extravaganza of a FESTIVAL (which I imagine your gf's party must've been if you had to raise so much money for it!) my answer would be NO. I would be willing to consider helping to pay for some of it, but I would be more focused on financially planning for the funding and organisation of the event well in advance.

    Geez... dirge, griffin and I (especially griff!) had to dig deep into our pockets to fund previous Transformer conventions and even then we never had to sell off our collections to help fund them. What kind of party was this? Did you build her a private amusement theme park like Michael Jackson's Neverland?? Far out! I hope the male strippers were hot.

    I celebrated my 21st at Sizzler (they gave me a free cake!).

    In all honesty,

    I can't remember how many 21st's I went to over the years but from organised house parties ranging from 20-200 people, 21st's held in nightclubs and 21st's held in function rooms where clothing ranged from smart casual to semi-formal - looking back at them now, none of them were that memorable...

    You must be one devoted BF...
