After several delays in picking a winner for last month's Seibertron.com/Geek To Me "Transformers Headmasters DVD Set" Sweepstakes (thanks to
Comic-Con,
a flood, and other craziness the end of July spawned), we have finally chosen a winner for this contest. Without further ado, we chose fellow Seibertronian
Daddycon who shared the following favorite memory from his childhood which involved Transformers:
Daddycon wrote:My favorite memory would have to be the large Transformer battles my father and I had during the early days of Generation 1 (these replaced the Star Wars battles we used to have before Transformers came out). Most Saturday mornings would involve a big Autobot / Decepticon smackdown with one of us eventually pulling out my large Shogun Warrior (Getter Dragon) to wipe out the other side. This scenario now plays out between me and my 5-year-old son (and my wife) who has inherrited my G1 / G2 collections (along with various pieces from Beast Wars through Animated and the Bayverse). My father still joins both of us extending the fun across three generations. I get to relive my childhood, my father gets to be a kid again, and we pass the fun along to my son. Robots are cool in and of themselves, but the family bonding they have created in my family has been priceless.
This contest was merely about striking a chord with us. To me, Daddycon's memory is the epitome of what a hobby like this should be about. As a father of a 2 year old, I can tell you that there is a simple amazement that happens when you watch your child play with a Transformers toy and discover the joy of turning it back and forth between a robot and a car (thank you Hasbro for Playskool's Rescue Bots Bumblebee). Daddycon's memory also hit home with me because I remember the big battles my Grandma Betty and I used to have when I was a little kid. I would spend hours and hours setting up the battle landscape with Autobots on her side (she thought Optimus Prime was a "beautiful red truck" and liked Blurr because her initials were BLR) and Decepticons on mine. She somehow always "won".
Anyways, Daddycon's memory represents what should be one of the most cherished parts of this hobby as it is shared from generation to generation, something that is truly remarkable of a toy line that started out 27 years ago. Thank you for sharing your memory with us, Daddycon, and
thank you to all Seibertron.com members who shared their Transformers related childhood memories with us last month.
Daddycon will be receiving a copy of Shout Factory's Transformers Headmasters DVD set, courtesy of our friends at Chicago RedEye's
Geek To Me. Congrats again Daddycon!

Transformers 3 Razer Vespula
The Autobots led by Optimus Prime and the Decepticons led by Megatron have been two opposing sides to a long great war fought for two different ideologies: attaining peace through a speedy assault or power through ruthless control. With the dual-sided Razer Vespula: Transformers 3 Collector’s Edition gaming mouse mat, choose which Transformers side and style you’ll swipe on for victory.
Either side of the Razer Vespula comes with distinct gaming-grade surfaces on an abrasion-resistant hard coat. With the Autobots SPEED surface, experience a smoother, faster-paced swiping action that maximizes freedom of movement for firing your plasma cannon faster than the opponent can react. With the Decepticons CONTROL surface, ultra-precise movements are favored, ensuring you’re always at your most accurate when tearing enemy robots’ limbs apart. The gaming mouse mat also comes with a memory conformance wrist rest designed to reduce fatigue so you can keep going long after your foes have run out of gas.
Transformers 3 Razer DeathAdder
The dark war between the Autobots and Decepticons comes to Earth. Prepare for battle with the Razer DeathAdder Transformers 3 Collector’s Edition. The DeathAdder comes in one of four versions designed in the striking finishes of iconic Transformers - the fiery red and blue power of
Optimus Prime, the bright and energetic yellow of
Bumblebee, the dark brooding purple of
Shockwave, or the cold silver evil of
Megatron.
As a gaming mouse, the Razer DeathAdder is crafted with a right-handed ergonomic form factor for extended gaming sessions in absolute comfort. Its 3500dpi 3.5g infrared sensor ensures your every movement is translated into frags of pinpoint accuracy. The Razer DeathAdder Transformers 3 Collector’s Edition is truly more than meets the eye.
