I saw a picture of masterpiece Skywarp with Coronation set in 2010 it was all over.

I think it would have to be the Dreamwave comics that ignited my collecting habit as an adult. Had bought a few Beast Wars, Beast Machines, RID, etc over the years, but nothing much. DW's comics brought back the G1 characters, and in my opinion were the first step on the road to getting Hasbro all that sweet sweet Michael Bay movie money.
I dabbled with the AEC lines, mostly getting what I could at sales. Managed to get a couple of Classics, but wasn't lucky to have too much spare cash to go crazy on them. Once I started getting more money, I went back and looked at what I'd missed. I think Henkei Megatron was the first toy I bought off a web-store and things just started escalating from there.

For me it was in 2001 when I was 5 and flipping through the TV channels on a saturday morning and found a comercial for the RID show. At first I didn't pay attention to the show until I saw Sky-Byte turn into a great white and I was sold on the show. Then the next time I went to my local Tru, which unfourtantly closed back right in the middle of the Cybertron line , and saw transformers toys. I instantly searched for sky-byte but only found the Scourge and X-Brawn spychanger 2 pack, and later got Wedge because it was a friends b-day but I found out that he didn't like them, so I was able to keep Wedge.
