Yesterday I found a MIB pre-TF Browning and immediately bought it. Alongside this thing of beauty I also bought an AM Airachnid, putting three decades of TF's into perspective in one haul.

Perspective is a b*tch.

Amen.

Today I also had a similar moment, though not 30 years' worth. I recently bought a MISB MD-01 Megatron. It arrived today, and when I opened it, I had a very vivid flashback to 10 years ago when I bought my Armada Megatron and opened it. Made me look back on the last 10 years.

Perspective is a bitch.

Got my TFs out of storage the other day and was greeted by that familiar *BEEP* *BEEP* *BEEP* *FFFFFFWWOOOOOOSHH* Jetfire-prime-overload was practically standing up in the box. Put him up on my shelf next to my recently aquired FE Optimus. The words out of my mouth in the side-by-side was, "Well Damn"

My FoC Jazz & Shockwave are sitting on my "CURG" shelf, with a bunch of Classics, Universe, RTS, and earlier Generations toys (obviously).

FE Optimus is considered a great toy nowadays, right?

At least he has a reason to be thought of as one.

He's freaking awesome! Keep your bricks.

I opened MP Sideswipe yesterday, he shows that there are still great things happening.

@ RhA

Makes you feel old no?

You know what? Feels like what happened in the Beastwars storyline, when Primal and the gang arrived in the past, they were like "downsized" for energon efficiency compared to their giant Autobot ancestors.

Compare the 1984 gang to the present crop..........makes you wonder whether the writers back then foresaw this........

And yeah, standards have indeed gone down what with FE Optimus being the "better" version of the current releases
