Re: First TF that started your collection

The year was 1986, and my Pop dished out some money for a yellow and red Transformers I wanted... but Hot Rod was MIA in Quebec, so he got me my first Transformer. Also yellow and red, 1985 Blaster (Closed Door Type).

Re: First TF that started your collection

Movie Deluxe Brawl. Nothing special about it really. I saw the 07 movie, and then started getting into TF's. So yes, I'm a very new collector. I'm at 50 something figures right now. But hey, at least I have some older figures that aren't just in the Movie, Animated, and Universe line, like Reissue G1 Ultra Magnus, G1 Jazz, and a KO Devestator that's actually some what decent.

Re: First TF that started your collection

G1 Bumblebee (still have it) when I was young. I stopped collecting for a few years after that. The toy which started it all again is BW Cybershark (regular one).

Re: First TF that started your collection

My first TF was a G1 Grimlock that my Dad picked up for me at a garage sale for a only quarter (it was 1992 I believe).
And yes, I did bring him to TFCon and got him signed by Gregg Berger.

Re: First TF that started your collection

First would have been Cheetor. Although technically, it was my brother's. But he watched BW so often that he got me hooked, and eventually he'd be coming back home from a shopping trip with my mother and holding a figure that I liked, but he didn't.
