My daughter's first Transformer...

is Animated Snarl. Who is a triceratops. I'm not sure why they couldn't call him Slag. Great action on his thumbs and sculpting on his fingers and an expressive face. Really a class act figure.

And a certain Universe Bumblebee turned up in my basket. One for me, one for you.

So far Snarl spent the whole morning protecting pink faeries from the giant baby monster.

It begins...

That's really sweet.

How lovely

My first transformer was First Aid. I got him as a reward for being brave and having an injection when I was ickle!

That's wonderful. Though considering she's 45 the pink faeries bit is worrying.

Secretly, this is true for me, as well. The drillhead guy.

If we're going into "almosts", my first was actually McDonald's Beast Machines Jetstorm.

Mine was the seaplane, who i think is called Water Walk.

Which is at least themeatic given it's Zombie Jesus weekend.

Congrats for starting her in a hobby more demanding than being a crack addict!

I mean.

Cool!

And my first tf was a G1 Warpath! (who I still own)

Warpath was actually my first proper TF as well - once i had explained in painstaking detail how one brand of cartoon based robots was ENTIRELY DIFFERENT to another brand.

Ha... oh, sad. Don't I know it. I justified not collecting for years based on Hasbro's bad manufacturing practices... but buying secondhand on eBay tends to remove most of that debate, doesn't it?

Nice! Protecting pink faeries from giant baby monsters, see now THERE'S a job that can't be outsourced.

For me, I want to say Bombshell, but I would think that my parents probably gave me a Micro before they went out and bought a proper TF, and in that case, Brawn.
