The Energon Pub

That bonechilling feeling when you're walking through your house, and you step on one of your transformers and hear that terrifying, familiar crunch that only a transformer can make.

You look down and see a figure you once loved, now in shambles.

Who was it for you? It's had to of happened at least once...

Today it happened to me. I left my dotm Ratchet on the floor after messing with him...later I crumpled the poor guy...luckily, he's tough as bricks in his truck mode! No damage to speak of here.

I actually haven't stepped on any yet. I used to spread my Magic The Gathering collection across the floor so I became quite adept at being careful about where I stepped.

I probably jinxed myself. I'll let ya know which figure I break soon.

Today I got Legends Rewind in the mail and tonight I stepped on him when I didn't notice he'd fallen off my desk in tank mode. He's mostly fine, but his gun is a little bent.

I don't recall ever breaking a figure on accident, but I have done it in a fit of rage. I threw my black Alternity Megatron against my desk once. Only thing broke was the passenger side mirror on the door. Still, it was a pretty expensive figure, so now when I get upset, I don't go near any of my figures.

I've done this. While not recently, back in the day I chucked my Energon Mirage because he was such a fiddly mess.

The end result was a plastic shrapnel bomb. I was actually able to put him back together just fine after.

No figures that I like, however, since I've given my Unicron Trilogy toys over to my kids to play with, my wife and I have stepped on nearly all of them at least once. The good thing is that those lines (in my opinion, calm down) are 95% crap so I don't care.


In a fit of frustrated rage, I once threw Alternator Grimlock against the wall. He didn't come out of that too well.

i sat on mp-07 truscream the first day i got him. i after i watched the third movie i grabbed my voyager sentinel and threw it down my hallway

I threw CW Shockwave at a wall a couple of times. Being the toy of choice often on my bedside table while I'm in a bit of stress is not a good combination.

He's very sturdy though; hasn't broken at all.
