Yo.
I wanted to say that my original fandom started during the time the original G1 figures were out. But it spanned into the Japanese G1 continuity the year I was introduced to "2010" Predaking at a Toys"R"Us in Koriyama (Fukushima Prefecture). And it pretty much ended when I realized that it is near impossible to be a strict JG1 fan in the states. With reasons including the fact others focus on the Sunbow G1 stuff.
As for who I am, that is something else. I have a variation of Asperger's that has made being in numerous fandoms hard. For example, I left this site years ago for those reasons. The benefit I have of being a fan is that I am an analytical thinker. For me, it is more about the details that form a fact than what I want them to be. It tends to help make what I am interested in easier to get into.
And during my downtime, I also like to be helpful. So if you need help, just ask.
Atop of that I am a former freelance writer, I finally completed one of my decade long collector goals, and I am here with the hope of making up for lost time. Plus, 2016 had me find out how I can ask
's designers questions. Among other things that do not entirely include this franchise. With a few that do in some way. Such as my recent acquisition that I have been wanting since 2012.
So if you have any questions, feel free to PM me.
