Incidentally, I lost power from midnight last night until just a couple hours ago because of that same reason. You have no idea how many times I had to hold back screaming "Damn those Decepticons!"

LOL!!! Everytime I hear "down transformer" or "blown transformer," I always get a good laugh and everyone looks at me like I'm nuts.

yeah...me too...and I kid you not, I was speaking to a cop just a few days ago about an abandoned car that's been in front of our house for quite sometime and somehow we got started about the end of the world - oh because of the Mayoral race going on here in Chi-town...and anyway he told me to look up solar flares and how our electrical grid will be fried and then he looked right up and pointed and said "yep those transformers would just blow!" I couldn't help but laugh...and then I had to tell him why because he thought I was making fun of him!

Anyway back to the basics:

You might not be a true Transformers fan...if:

You think Omega Supreme is the new featured item at Taco Bell.

You hear Sentinel Prime and think it must be a new online newspaper.

You think Skyhammer is what Thor uses to defeat evil with - other than his good looks and charm of course! ; )

lol! we should start a new thread... "you might be a TRUE transformer fan...if..."

...if you think "blown/downed Transformer" is a sexual reference to Transformers.

Earth is always being bombarded by solar storms. Worst case scenario, we're hit with mass power outages. That same thing happened in 1989 in Canada. millions went without power because of it, but they were back up the same day.

To be fair, that DOES sound like something you could get at Taco Bell. I'm amazed the cross-promotion hasn't happened yet.

It also means you aren't a fan of Norse Mythology because the hammer is named Mjolnir.

and THAT'S the DAILY DOUBLE!!! wow. you are a fact-genius, bro.

You might NOT be a Transformers fan if:

... you think that "The Touch", is a way to find out if an object is solid or not.

... you think that Optimus Prime is a planet in a sector called "Optimus".

... you think that the G1 Ironhide and Ratchet toys had great head sculpts and placements.

... you hear "Bumblebee" and you reach for the can of Raid.

... you hear "Reflector" and you think it is a mirror brand.

... you think that Hasbro should never make an Arcee figure.

... you hear complaints about no Arcee figures and you respond, "Sure there are! I have an RC car in my garage!"

... you think the relationship between Armada Starscream and that girl should have lasted.

... you hear "Bombshell" and you duck.

... you hear "Hoist" and you look for a rope.

... you think that Megatron has a sparkling sense of humor.

... you hear someone say "Seaspray" and you immediately think of the beach.

... you think that Starscream will never try to take over leadership from Megatron even if his life depended on it.

... you hear "Nightbird" and you think of an owl.

... you think "Long Haul" is a long road trip.


More coming soon!

That's that repaint of TM2 Blackarachnia they sold as Arcee, there's Animated Arcee, and we've got an upcoming toy for Arcee from TF Prime. So if anyone complains about no toys for Arcee, they might not be a Transformers fan.

Energon Starscream, and I learned this recently, wouldn't.

Proving me wrong at every turn...

Wrong Arcee. We want G1 Arcee! Animated Arcee is G1 looking, but its too "Animated-y" IMO.

Also Arcee from the first movie and ROTF. Can't believe I forgot that.

trust me dude, if they made an Arcee that was more "G1-y" it would either look almost nothing like the character (Like many designs in G1) or almost exactly like Animated Arcee.

You might not be a true transformers fan if...

You haven't read about "True Transformers Fans."

...you think someone else is not a true Transformers fan.
...you just lost The Game.
...you are a true Transformers fan (or think you are).
...you've never heard of a GeeWunner before.
...you hear "wave" and think of the ocean.
...you've never actually bought a Transformer. (It's a given but must be stated.)
...you don't know what a scalper is.
...you are a scalper. Idiot...
...the word Masterpiece doesn't make you think of elaborate, expensive action figures.

Hey OptiMagnus - I'm going to add on to some of yours - as they were pretty d@#^ funny!

...You might not be a True Transformers Fan...if...

...you think you may be a true Transformers fan but just can't quite figure it out...so you're sitting there reading all of these looking for clues.

...you think GeeWunner is a Yoga pose.

...you're a forum member but don't own a single Transformer toy! (comics/cartoons/movies alone don't cut it kidos)

...you hear "Masterpiece" and only can think of "Theatre" to finish it.

... I say "Cullen" and you think "Edward".
... you don't think of at least one certain character when you see somebody driving around in said that character's alt. mode.
... you hear "Transformer" and think of a static device that transfers electrical energy from one circuit to another through inductively coupled conductors.

if you think that botcon is a proctologist convention
or megatron is a biblical angel

Yay! Someone sees my sense of humour!
Those are pretty funny, especially the one I put in bold.

you're not a true fan if you don't own figures from more than one series....
except G1 perhaps....

THIS!!!

This is truth! So many people went and saw those movies just because of her!

OH MY GOD!! I'm not a transformers fan!!!!

..you sell your TFs because you grew up.
..Possibly if you are someone me who comes and goes in the fandom ( subjective maybe?).

You think Warpath is the code name for our government's involvement in the Middle East.
(though I guess, for all we know, it could be!?!)

You hear Sea Spray and think that it must be one horrible cologne and would never try it.

You think Deep Dive is only something you must do during scuba training.

You see Ratchet up on the top of the screen and don't click on him to see how you can help the Tsunami victims. I say if you have the money to splurge on our hobby...well...I'm pretty sure our toys will always be around.
