    As per the idea posted in the first transformer thread, i think it's a good idea, so here it is.

    Mine:

    i noticed a frined of mine was stealing my baseball cards, so one day when he asked me to feed his fish, i went into his toybox and stole a bunch of mini-bots.

    another time, on the school playground, some kid left his omni-bot downshift in the sandbox, so i scooped him up.

    never did steal transformers from a store, but i did manage to get a GI. Joe gung ho into my pocket. this was ofcourse before servailence cameras, and security tags.

    I once bought a couple of test shots off eBay.

    Other than that, not really, although I had to recover my Trailbreaker from a kid who took it out of my backpack at school. Punk kid!

    Pugery is not a word, unless it is the actions one commits whilst being a pug.

    Actually, I went through a klepto phase during late Armada/early Energon. I could afford the mini-cons and Omnicons/Terrorcons, but more expensive TFs I'd cram into my backpack in a security camera blindspot.

    Also swiped Alternators Sideswipe, ran out of the store, and hid under a bridge for half an hour. That was kind of a turning point. Now I just buy 'em.

    Aside from a pencil from a classmate that I "borrowed" (meaning they lent it to me and I just never gave it back), I've never stolen anything in my life.

    Besides someone trying to steal my Spittor in the first grade, and me having to steal it back, I've never stolen a TF. Pokemon cards though...that's a different story, if someone had a card of theirs stolen at my middle school back in the day, I was usually paid a couple dollars to go out and steal it back for them, good deals most of the time too.

    Even after editing, the word you're looking for is perjury.

    Closest I got to stealing was when I apparently threw a tantrum until I got this other kid's Sandstorm. I still feel like a bit of a douche about that.

    i "swiped" Alt. Sideswipe from the local Zellers. it took a lot of planning because of all the security cameras all over the place. the only reason i stole it is because a)they were asking $39.99, and b)couldn't find him anywhere else.
    i also stole a dinky car dodge viper GTSR shortly after. other than that and a candy bar accidentally when i was three, nothing.




    not including a bunch of pokemon cards i stole from a kid down my street. then traded back to him. oh man that was mean.

    I stole a few gobots back in the day, so that pretty much amounts to nothing.

    Bless me father for I have sinned...

    I was maybe 6 or 7 and I had to tag along with my father to his friend's house. Well the neighbor had some kids my age so I played in their backyard with them. They had a shed there with a box full of Transformers inside, the Springer especially caught my eye. After they had to go in for dinner, I snuck back into the yard and helped myself to the box in the shed, but I couldn't find Springer so I settled for Quake.

    I had it a long time and when it started to eat at me too much I gave the figure to a friend of mine as my way of atonement. Luckily that's my only incident of such behavior... that you know of...

    Hmm...

    I pocketed 3 Beast formers at a flea market once while actually buying 2 McBeast Wars figs. Also, I pretended to drop my wallet at another booth so I could switch the price tags on a toy. Guy wanted $20 for a pretty nice G1 Scourge but I switched it out with an $8 tag.
