    Wow, I've been thinking about it for a day or two and I don't have a 'best christmas present memory' story. Lots of horror stories about bad sh*t that went down on different X-Mass' but no best present ones. I never thought of it before - thats kinda depressing

    Transformer wise I guess I got given a G1 Mirage for X-Mass by my sister in 1984 and a Devastator bust from my mum and my girlfriend in 2002. Those were both pretty good.

    Xmas 1985, Got Optimus & Ironhide. What made it even better was my brother had been born a few months prior There is a pic of me holding him on Xmas morning and you can see Prime & Ironhide in the foreground. Great memory

    I couldn't help but laugh and thankfully she wasn't upset. Although I tried to put on a happy face and smile once I saw the list. Thankfully they were on pre-order and RK hadn't posted. They were good enough to give me a store credit and I ordered the ones I was after
    wow, what a story! you have to give her props for trying.

    Old pictures like that with toys in it are pure gold. My brother was born in '86, but for some reason Galvatron shelf warmed for a long time in our local newsagent/toy shop and I bought it for him in the early 90's Yeah, that's serious shelf warming.
    Anyway there is a family photo of his birthday somewhere and it has G1 Galvatron in all his MISB glory!!

    When I was 20, I suffered severely with depression. That Christmas, my parents did everything they could to try to make me as comfortable and content as possible. That included buying me a whole bunch of new stuff, including Transformers, largely finishing off my Cybertron collection. But really it's the warmth and care they gave me during that time that makes this one probably my best Transformers Christmas memory.
