Got Soundwave for Chrissie back in the day (1984 I'm guessing from my increasingly bad memory ) and bought Ravage and Rumble a few days later with some money I got from rellies Those toys were cherished and well played with

Some amazing pressies and great stories WOW!!

Remember if you have a G2 running around the house that in 18 - 28 years time they might be threading the same type of stuff to their online community. (Although by then it will be through some sort of cerebral cortex interface no doubt)
Cherish every moment you have with your little ones and if you don't have any, then just cherish every moment you have with your toys

Bet THAT box didn't fit under the Christmas Tree!

It's not too big a box.

Not too big a toy - even by 1986 standards. I remember the first time I saw that toy and thought, "Oh..." It's a nice toy, don't get me wrong... but it's actually about the same height as Ultra Magnus (I think UM might be a wee bit taller). Obviously it's meant to be a city for the smaller carded Autobots, and in that regard it works well. Fortress Maximus came the year after and was the city for the larger boxed Autobots (re: Headmasters and Targetmasters).

Heck, Maximus looked great with the minibots too. You could put guys like Hound in him too, as well.

I remember one year my grand parents got my brother and i a sack of toys each. Nothing big, smaller things lik an action figure, a matchbox car, a transformers etc.
When you're a kid its quantity over quality.
I got Dragstrip that year. I've still got it and i will never sell it.

D'oh. i read Metroplex, but was thinking Fort Max. Odd, because I was thinking, "Fort Max hadn't been released then had he?"
