Talkin' Bout Your Transformers Generation!

[GoktimusPrime]

Which Transformers series did you grow up with during your childhood? Are you:

+ Generation Zero: Grew up in the mid to late 1970s and/or early 80s with precursory Transformer toys like Microman (Micronauts)... maybe even DIA-KLONNN!

+ Generation One: Grew up in the 1980s and early 90s with the original generation of Transformers.

+ Generation Two: Grew up in the early to mid 90s with G2.

+ Generation Beast: Grew up in the mid to late 90s with Beast Wars and Beast Machines.

+ Neo Generation: Grew up in the early to mid 00s with Robots In Disguise and Unicron Trilogy.

+ Protoform Generation: Still growing up with Classics, the live action movie franchise and Animated!

I suppose I would be G1? I was born '85.

I'm kind of in between in that in the mid to late nineties I was watching the dubs of headmasters through to victory AND also not too long later, watching beast wars

Most of the toys I had were g1 toys (mainly rebirth era toys) and my bro was the one who got a g2 prime and beast wars toys...

Mind you this was in Malaysia...

G1 was released 2 years after i was born.
Then went on to BW. When i first saw BW toys on the shelves i thought that someone was trying to rip off the transformers good name and was quite disgusted. Then i saw the show and was hooked.

Gen Zero for me.

I'm sure I'm still older Vert so you can still smile

Not sure if I am Gen 0 or 1... I was 9 yrs old when Transformers came out in '84 however because I grew up in Oz, I had no knowledge of Microman until the internet

I was born in '86 so technically I'm a G2. I had a few Tfs but only became a real fan with the Beast Era.

Same here except I was born in 88.
While I have mild recollections of G2 stuff and I owned a Rotorstorm from the end of Euro G1, Beast Wars is what I have strongest memories of and what I really grew up with.

Now this was confronting, Ive always considered me self a Gen1 fan , but looking at the listing description... Im Gen 0 Although I have seen Microman on the toy shelves back in Philippines, its TFs that really got me drooling and always wanting to be left in the toy section while my mom and brother are about the whole department store. Works out fine for them I guess, keeps the annoying youngster (then) from getting into trouble and acts like a pacifier by keeping me in that section ( I wouldve stayed all day heheheh) and picking me up AFTER theyre finished with their boring shopping, since there are loose samples displayed which you can fiddle with and dioramas in glass of all the more popular toys at that time... I couldnt buy em and I understood that, we don't have the spare cash so I like fiddling with the samples so I can later make my Craft Paper TF versions a bit more accurate ( well for me heheh) with the detailing I remember from the originals .....ah gone are the days of toy dioramas/spare sample displays in stores..... dag nabbit young ones stealing toys nowadays, cant trust em....
