The dumb things you do when you play with your Transformers when you're young.

Postby zwann » Wed Jan 09, 2013 7:40 am

What was the dumbest weirdest thing you did while playing with your Transformers toys when you're a kid?

I remember creating a scene where my Technobots was buried by the Decepticons(can't remember what Decepticon he was). I went outside to dig a hole and actually buried them there, and actually left it there because of my storyline and planned to dig them out tomorrow, but completely forgot about them.

I remembered about it days later, digged them out. They're still in one piece, but the wet ground completed rusted the screws.

Still wondered why did I even choose the left them there for the night..

Taking my toys out of ther packaging. I wiped out literally hunderds of dollars of value just by opening MISB G1 items :)

Just kidding. I did however shoot up a couple of M.A.S.K. figures with my airgun. None I didn't have doubles or triple of, though.
I'm so meta, even this acronym...

Motto: "You don't know because you can't see me. Then you are dead."
Weapon: Sniper Rifle
We had some old Chuck Norris figures (anyone remember those?) that we covered in lighter fluid and burned. It was great because their hollow rubber heads inflated and exploded before the rest of the figure melted.
Weird request here. If anyone has an extra Classics Skywarp or Dirge missile please PM me. I need one.

Motto: "Brilliant"
Weapon: Viper Pistol
When I first started collecting, aside from a very small Energon collection, I had four Cybertron toys: Downshift, Brushguard, Override, and Optimus Prime.

The dumbest thing I did with them was create a love story Downshift, Brushguard, and Optimus all wanted to marry Override.

Look, I was 8, okay? :BANG_HEAD:

Especially since her Japanese counterpart Nitro Convoy is male. :x
Top 5 Priorities:

1) BW Neo X-7 Elphaorpha
2) BW II VS-18 Powerhug vs. Autocrusher
3) Universe 2003 Night Slash Cheetor
4) RiD Landfill (regular, not the yellow)
5) BW Convobat (red) & Megalligator (purple)

Also looking for any clear Arms Microns, like Shadow (Gora & R.A.), Hellflame and Shining (O.P. and R.A.).

Preparing to move to the US!

Motto: "Do a barrel roll!"
Weapon: Railgun
Unfortunately I never really grew out of being a kid and still play with my figures (Transformers are toys to be cherished and played with, not kept displayed in their acrylic prisons!). As such the ball joints on most of my Transformers are quite loose. My Movie Dreadwing (or Thrust as he is in my own continuity) has a very very VERY loose arm joint which I have tried to fix with nail varnish.

Also, my Dark Scorponok's arm ratchet broke, so I tried unscrewing his arm (which was complicated due to his claws) and fixed it (temporarily). Unfortunately, I put the missile trigger the wrong way round, and the screws are completely rounded now...
