I'm just curious: have you ever given her one and showed her how to transform it? You know, let her do it on her own. Maybe if she sees how fun and cool they are first-hand, she'll be a little more interested or something.

I dunno. Just a thought.

I have never shown her one nor do I intend to. Can you imagine what would happen!!!

OH MY GOD!!! She would sign up here and get to know you all. Get into TF's and what would there be for me? NOTHING!! Then as she dug deeper into the TFL archives and discovered how much I have spent on them, discovered how crazy I actually I am!!!!

I mean we are talking total pandemonium!! Cats and dogs living together and everything!!! All without me of course, I wopuld be already dead!! LOL!!!

Like Galvatron, Ramjet and a few others, TFL is not for "'er indoors!"

She would become as Transformers crazy as you, then proceed to buy every Transformer ever made and both your lives would be complete .........

I tried to do that with my fembot. Ok, well not the expensive part. And, she didn't like that at all. I got her Elita-1 since at the time she seemed interested if there were female bots.

I couldn't get her hooked, let alone interested. She does accept my hobby though. It doesn't bother her as much as I thought it would.

PS, about the keep clean part. I am the only one who dusts her bot.

I tried that with my wife. she's not into them like we are she likes them and learns about them to keep up with me and the mincon but that is it "there not girly enough" i guess

My ol' lady likes Scooter, the effeminate Go-Bot. But, he found her childhood Gizmo, then I gave her a little rubber E.T. She said she needed a Chewbacca to go with them, so I get her one. Then, he looked lonely so I picked up a C3P-O and R2-D2, which is a bad deal for me. I avoid Star Wars like the plague, because I'm an out-of-control toy junkie. At least I'll have something (else) to play with when I go to her house!

I think Trance needs to go an ahead and get it over with and set up a subforum for Galvatron and his followers.

"Giggitytron's Playhouse"

My husband is a closeted 'Tron fan!

As far as collecting goes.........

I finally have Mr Man to the point in which he doesn't care what I buy as long as it follows four criteria..........

1. It isn't a crazy nuts amount.
2.I don't ask for a loan.
3. I don't say anything about his purchases.
4. If I have an Alternator and destroy it in a fit of anger he wants to be off the lot because last night he said he was afraid he was next.

That's a good deal!

My missis tends to refer to all my toys as "tat", and sighs heavily when a new one arrives.

Hard to argue with her sometimes!
