Show CNN Your Transformers Collection

I don't know..I mean I'm sure my collection can be beat.. but to go on CNN and have those self serving reporters make you look like an idiot, an adult idiot, who is laughed at the minute you get off camera.. ummmm yeah, not me man... I pass.. even if I had the coolest collection in the world.. I would still pass on CNN..

I would rather do an interview here, that would be bigger to me then to go on CNN..

at least here on a Transformers Site, I can receive valued compliments from my peers and friends.. and not seem out of place, but to go on a network TV news show, with some of the worst reporters and snobbish superficial people in the U.S. well that is a type of punishment, I'd rather not put myself through..

if you think I'm crazy, did you not see how they portrayed trekkies?? Or how they portrayed Star wars Fans?

I hate to be a party pooper, but someone has to say something..

thanks man.. I am taking a big risk by coming out an making a statement like that... and to those who think this is a cool thing, go for it.. just not me man..

I propose we get our own collection interviews going again, Counterpunch's interviews are the best ever.. and he is the best interviewer her on seibertron.. if he asks you to do one, then you have just been selected to be a celebrity to thousands of fellow fans..who will not laugh at you, but marvel at your collection..

I'm all for interviews over collections. Once you get close to a thousand, you have some pretty interesting facts to share about your collecting habits and what you like in the franchise.

I don't know if I would do an interview.I'm some where over 1300 figures now and an interview is just another way to make fun of fans.I have seen interviews like this and they all laugh at you in the studio.When the first movie came out news sites did stuff like this.Not for me.

I forgot a few words. I meant an interview for this site. I'd prefer interviews from the seibertron news crew. If you're your going to do an interview about a collection, do it where it won't be ridiculed.

I feel like a slacker for the past year, since I havn't been on as much. I never seen one on this site before.

i haven't been on here but for the last 2 weeks lately.. but Counterpunch did some like 2 years ago.. and if anyone were to be an interviewer.. I would only want to be interviewed by him..trust me he rocks..

Who wants to end up like this

Be Nice =)

Wow Transformers Heaven Excellent MISB collection, you are far stronger than I. I liked what you wrote in your story as well. I've gotten the whole "How old are we"/ so many times I've lost count. It's amazing how everyone's tone changes when they start looking at how bad ass some of those toys are

Still not interested in doing it..

as for whether it matter what people think of you or not, and your hobby?

it shouldn't matter.. in a perfect "Walgreens" world..

but we live in the real one, and it does matter..people get their feelings hurt, and other people DO judge.. and many are Hippocrates..

sorry it i just the way reality is..

that turtles youtube video is sad..not funny, but sad.. because they found a crazed collector to video, and not all of us are like that..

CNN... nope..not me..

If enough of us Seibertronians did it , I would too, just to plug the website

I have no doubt that in this world today that there are poeple who go out of there way to poke fun at people who go overboard with collecting. That youtube video is a great example. You know the production guys were havin a hoot over that one. What I meant was funny about it was how extremem she did take her collection, Buying the actual movie prop heads? That's waaaay more extreme than I would be willing to go, Luckily the Transformers are all cg now, then again the BB mockup is only $250,000

I guess I've had the luck of never running into any of those hippocrites who want to tear collectors down. I've always been a big guy so not to many people would make a joke about my collection anyway . I totally understand what your sayin though Skywarp and I agree with ya
