The tackle in the story about your megs?About 9 years ago there was a Transformers fan from Canberra who took my G1 Megatron toy, brought it with him to Canberra, and walked around with it in public in gun mode. He got tackled by security guards at a train station and at the airport. This was all before September 11. It's because of people like him that we have these laws that inconvenience the rest of us.

Eeep! TF management! What a pain! How do you choose what to sacrifice?Originally Posted by sideswipes brother
Apparently i have to keep my collection below a certain number to be allowed to keep buying them.
ROFL!! I would hate to see THAT scanner in action!I'd better uninstall my janglies scanner then!
Great segment Tiby! My Mum messaged me at the time "Watch channel 2 NOW!" it said. Nice collection. Probably the most fun I have had watching collectors. Shame it was so short... Next time hey?

Ah yes... it survived. But the guy later broke my Megatron's torso. He got someone to fix it but it wasn't the same... the chest piece could rotate a full 360.Then in late 2000/early 2001 when Takara announced that they would reissue Megatron (in Feb 2001) I told him to pay for my reissue ($80) to compensate for the damage done to my toy. He refused. After much further debate, he agreed to pay for 50% of the cost of my reissue - so he paid $40 for it. Afterwards he eventually returned my original Megatron toy after much much much much much persistent nagging from me.
I'll be sure that I demonstrate it in mid-winter so I can use the "it's cold" excuse.

Just watched the short segment that I downloaded from the ABC website, is there somewhere where you can watch the full show? Because the file I downloaded seems pretty small and short.
But GREAT presentation Tiby! Love your eloquent choice of words too! Tells the world that TF Collectors aren't just nerdy geeks, but we are also smart and intelligent!

I've just downloaded the segments so I can watch them at home later. Will have to watch the whole episode online (with Tiby in the studio) when I return to office tomorrow. Moving house is driving me mad...

This is definitely worth resurrecting (for those of us who weren't OTCA members at the time).
