So you can have your computer holographic series where the toys look indentical and are easily fixed because they are made of space-age materials, because as flawed as ours were, they were better, because they were first.
Are you kids still here? Get off my lawn!

A perfect picture for this thread would be if Ryan could dig up a picture of Meg and Optimus shaking hands...

Oh yeah...and I remember we had to WALK to the store...uphill both ways! And we had to work for them becuase they didn't have money back then! We worked for 22 1/2 hours a day just for a tiny figure! We had to sell our organs to get figures like Grimlock and Soundwave! And don't get me started on Fortress Maximus...just look at my prosthetic legs! ANd it was SNOWING when we were walking to the store and it was 500 below absolute zero Kelvin with a 220 mph windchill...
