I used to have a few transformers going to garage sales and the sunday markets as a kid but lost them all growing up.
bought the G1 dvds when they came out and recently decided to start collecting transformers.

the first one I bought was MP-08 Grimlock ^_^
the design and transformation process just made me feel like a kid all over again. at the moment I want to get the takara henkei classics. (Looking foward to the rodimus prime upgrade.)
