    Default Growing Up With Transformers

    I was helping my folks clean their house yesterday and came across these old photos of me (w/ friends and family) playing with G1 Transformers in the 1980s!

    So yeah, this thread is for everyone to chip in and post up any pics you have of yourself as a child playing w/ Transformers!

    1986 (my birthday)


    1988


    1989

    ...I wish I could find that STARS base now. I had two of them but I have no idea where either of them are! (>_<)

    For some reason I never took any photos of my TF figures.

    Goktimus Prime - just wondering, are those your siblings or friends in the first photo?

    I also don't have any photos of myself with any of my toys. I wish I did as I miss my Transformers along with Masters of the Universe, Thundercats and GI-Joe. For some reason I don't miss my TNMT figures as much as the above.

    My TF collection was mainly composed of 84 and 85 figures, I don't recall having any 86 figures. I remember owining all the Minibots except Windcharger (who I still don't own!) and Optimus Prime are the figures that I mostly remember. When G1 was first came out in 84 I was only 4 years old and since then my interest in Transformers never fully went away even though I only started collecting toys again a year or so ago.

    Sadly due to crap parents, my original TF collection no longer exists.

    My sibling is being sat on by me in that photo. The toddler in the red top and the baby are my cousins - everyone else are friends. And see that cousin of mine in red? He had TIME WARRIOR - and he's since lost it!! (>o<)
