my kiddos are 15 / 8 / 10
my daughter is 15 - she doesnt care one way or the other.. eh
my boys
do love transformers, i think more so due to my little addiction but eh..lol we do have fights from time to time on who is getting who, especially when im getting the TF and they are not lmao..
my avatar i really do not know *HA* it was a pre loaded ava at my own website that i recolored to look a bit more like me
the TF in my sig is War With In Nemesis Prime done up years ago by my bud Josh who i got permission to mod/recolor edit as i wanted, just as long as i dont take credit for its creation...he's got a deviant art page under "dcjosh" is you ever want to see more of his work, or just pick up a current IDW TF-ish, you'll see it there too ^_^
my most fave TF is my G1 Fort Max ^_^ and of course i am partial to the G1 esque era, but i like the ideas and the stories to the new lines, but i always find myself some how trying to integrate the new "universes" in the G1/G2 verse...so far, my fanfics/character MTMTE profiles have been pretty good at doing so
right now, i have been focused on filling gaps in my collection by series.//seasons etc..
like i am two from complete the Crew of the Ark (just need huffer and gears)
i've used figures from all eras, depending on how i feel about the mold..
example..for Ratchet.. i use Universe 1.0 Autobot Ratchet and since my G1 Mirage is busted (missing his feet) his stand in is Machine Wars Mirage..
