I've been tossing up whether to post this for quite some time, because I'm just casual fan.

Several years ago I thought I was done collecting Transformers due to not being knowledgeable about the franchise (plots, characters, etc.) - my exposure is fairly limited to just the US cartoon, Beast Wars, RID, and some comics (Dreamwave, IDW, a bit of the old Marvel stuff).

This meant I felt I couldn't have any in-depth conversation with other fans on these boards about Transformers.

But the WFC lines got me interested in collecting again and giving away some of my older figures to family friends meant I had space to acquire some WFC stuff.

Despite some of the hollowness of the plastic I think the line is generally done well, and while I don't collect all of the figures, I feel in some ways this really is one of the most exciting times to be a Transformers fan.
