What line took you out???

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.

I LOVED G2. All my old transformers were broken (including Optimus Prime) and suddenly they were back on the shelf! G2 allowed me to complete Devastator and get Grimlock! And I still love G2 Megs. I don't care how iconic G1 Meg is, a 50 foot robot transforming into a handgun still doesn't make any damn sense!

Anyway no line has took me out completely although these lines came close: Beast Wars - at the time I was like "WTF?" (Not literally)

then came Beast Machines- the only reason I stuck by then is because of the Vehicons.

And now there's the bayverse toys - turning my favorite characters into horrid monsters!

I think for me it was mainly a matter of growing out of TFs, or my interests going elsewhere (TMNT), combined with a small allowance, and what seemed like low availability of Transformers in my area during the G2 days. I was also pretty displeased with the whole Beast era, so I resigned TFs to one of those fond, faded childhood memories. For a time...

Motto: "Will it blend?"
Weapon: Acid Rays
The line that took me out was the whole Action Masters line. I bought Starscream and that was it. Didn't start collecting again until 2005. :CON:
