OF ALL THE ROTTEN THINGS!!!

Feel free to discuss anything about any of the thousands of Transformer toys here. Anything from Generation 1 all the way to the soon to be released, the never to be released or the hope to be released is fair game! Want to show off your stuff? Please post your's and see others in the Transformers Collections Forum.

OF ALL THE ROTTEN THINGS!!!

Posted by decepta-scott Wed Jul 13, 2011 4:53 pm

...........So I get home from an especially terrible day at work today about 2:30 p.m. and notice my door has been kicked open. I walk in my front door to see my t.v. and x box arent there. I HAD BEEN ROBBED!
Then I go into the kitchen to see my 90 lb, huge for his breed boxer lying on the floor where he usually lies and where he probably stayed the whole time I was being robbed. :roll: I notice that the robber had enjoyed a plate of waffels and left the plate, a bit of waffel and some syrup (yes he even used my syrup) on the plate. Nothing gone from the kitchen but a few waffels though.
I make rounds through the house and despite the fact that there were alot of nice things that should have been taken, all I could identify were my t.v. and x box so far. Then I go into the bed room. Drawers are open, wifes undies are strewn about but nothing gone. Then I saw it. That asshole had swiped my ENTIRE COLLECTION of transformers to the floor!
So I go to pick them up. There were a few that were broken. Skullgrins foot and scourges wing but both were easily replaced so no biggie. I pick them all up and place them all back on the shelf and thats when I notice...........................
He stole my starscream guys!! :sad: My totally awesome, couldnt wait to get him, favorite bot, have no funds to replace him, henkei screamer is gone!!!!! WTF?!?!?!
Who does that?! Why take my starscream?! You break into my house, eat my waffels, look at my wifes panties AND steal my favorite transformer?!?! NO NO NO!
The cops wont even send out an amber alert!!
I just figured Id post this. I know it dosent realLy constitute toy news but technically it is a toy thread.
This was a bad day. A bad day indeed. It isnt even over yet.
That space right behiend megs left shoulder is so empty now... My collection is minus my fav fig. I HATE THEIFS!! :-x #-o :sad:

Wow, that's unfortunate. I feel really bad, dude. Not just for Starscream, but the fact that your privacy was violated like that. Hopefully it gets sorted out.

Surely you can't be that blind? Do you really REALLY not see what's going on?

It was STARSCREAM that ransacked your house, ate your waffles, and broke out, taking your TV and Xbox with him!

Though in seriousness, that is awful and I hope you can recover the cost of what's missing. =(

Call them back and tell them that you got your gun, shot, and killed him. You'll have all the attention you want from the police then. ;)

That really sucks the big one, man. Well, at least they only made off with a few material items.

Thanks for that tekka. I actually laughed. If I actually hung out with anyone anymore Id think it was one of my buddys but I havnt hung out for a few yrs. No time.
Its so odd that only my t.v., x box and STARSCREAM are gone.
When you add in my big ass dog, who anyone who dosent know him would certainly not wanna come in and take a chance with I really cant believe it happened.
The whole dog thing is just another factor that makes me think it had to be someone I know. Only my friends would know that bo-bo is a giant push over.
Perplexing.........

Dude, that's horrible. What I don't understand is why he didn't steal the whole collection. You can get a lot of money for toys. Of course, the big problem here is the police. They need to do what they were hired to do and actually investigate this. You know, DNA, fingerprints.

But an Amber Alert is for a missing kid, man.

Man, that sucks majorly. If you don't mind KOs, PM me, I have a CHSM KO Henkei Screamer who's not hanging with my collection that wouldn't argue with a new home until he's replaced by official product again.

You've got a well behaved dog. If someone broke in and left our door open, I'd be coming home to a home without dogs(and that's a scarier thought than missing items)...

Good luck getting the cops involved.

I dont keep a window open for others to see it but I agree they knew Id be gone. They almost got busted too. Today was a really short day for me. I was only at work for about five hrs. Id have LOVED to catch em. As far as why they didnt take the whole collection I dont think they knew what they had. That makes me even more p.o'ed. I think they just sw him , recognized him and said "hey starscream! I might as well snag him while Im here. Oh, I cant leave without being a TOTAL dick and knocking down all the rest of his figs too. ha ha ha!!"
I almost rather a collector have took him than someone who probably took him for laughs and will dispose of him in a bit.
Thanks for the .ko. offer MidnightFox. Im gonna p.m ya when I get paid here in a bit.

i dont know if you rent but a door that is easily kicked in would be the owners responsibility to fix, also be glad your dog didnt do anything as that could have ended poorly (for him) my dog is nearly 200lbs and even if she did defend the home it would only be to protect me or my wife.

but i digress sorry to hear that hopefully the dirtbag is admitted to the hospital with a misfired nullray in the eye. :D

I think it was someone who knew you.No one who isn't a fan would know anything about transformers or there value.I could understand xbox and tv but stealing transformers seems suspicious.Most pawn shops wouldn't waste their time with them.Look for any friends with extra money or new things.I had a supposed friend steal 250.00 from me it sucked.
I'm looking for a masterpiece seeker canopy.If anyone has one pm me.

let me say that i'm sorry to hear of your loss. It's tragic and heart breaking.

but let's put things in perspective here.

just be thankful it's screamer that's gone otherwise i'm sure those retards would do a lot worse to your wife. if they can go sniffing your wife's panties just think what they could've done to her.

be thankful it's the toy and not a family member.

I'm really sorry to hear this happened to you. I was robbed several years ago and it was just so infuriating that strangers were rifling through my personal belongings and violating my space. I didn't have any transformers at the time but they did take a computer that had years worth of irreplaceable digital photos that I had no backup of.

My thoughts exactly. I searched the house thinking that they may have lost interest in him and droped him, but no screamer. I had the same idea you had and went dow the street both ways looking on the sides of the road but again no screamer.
Im still so baffeled at this. Taking only my t.v., game system, Melissa swears she is missing a few sets of expensive undies, and my starscream. They didnt take the jewlry, the t.v. in the bedroom, the p.s.3 in the bedroom,2digital cameras, d.v.d. player in the front room (and they had to unhook that from the t.v.!!) the spare keys to the car and house, all those things were left.
Maybe they got scarred by something and had to leave? Neighbors saw nothing, cops only took a statement and looked at the house. They took some pics but they didnt dust for prints or anything. Not even the fork.
Everything screams "one of your pals did this" but for the life of me I cant figure out which one it could have been it could have been.
I onlt hang out with four people and I have known them all since childhood. I would be shocked to death to find out it was one of them. Unless like someone said in an earlier post about them standin in an alleyway smoking coke. Maybe one of my pals has developed a drug problem and knew I had some things to take. Ofcourse they know all they would have to do is ask me to borrow some money and Id take care of em.
Im going to keep a close watch to see if there ire any changes to any of their behavior. I know all the signs of an addict.
Thanks to all for the helpfull and supportive comments.
