    Hey Soundwarp!

    Anyway, no I don't feel my TF figures are alive, but some of them represent my favourite cartoon characters who are very much alive to me. Is this acceptable? ;)

    sometimes i wonder about that kinda thing-esp. with my Silverbolt, i think BW-hes a wolfeagle thing. i never saw the show, and for whatever reason i cant seem to lose him-seriously, ive lost every single one of my older transformers except for him-like he's stalking me...so whenever i play with him, he is always doing something important-affraid he'll get me when im not lookin...plastic stalker...

    I get more of that feeling from the non-transforming ones. I swear, sometimes the Revoltech TFs will jump off the shelf.

    it's all in the toy's soul.

    Sometimes I get the feeling that my Transformers are not toys but robots in disguise...

    My sister for a few months was freaking me the hell out. She lives quite a few miles out of town and has the spare key to my place so when her and the kids would need to make a pit stop they can pop in, get a drink and go. Well, little did I know that she would take a few of my transformers and changes their poses a little....and move some to other locations. I never had an idea if she had stopped over since I would be at work when she would come by.

    I would come home, sit down and notice something weird. Like, Soundwave would have Bendy Primes mini-con gun, or Universe Nemesis Convoy would be on the floor, looking like its peeking out from under my bed. It drove me friggin nuts not knowing how this was happening until my sister told me what she had been doing.

    Hell, she once arranged all the TFs on the shelfs so that when you entered the room, they would all be facing you, instead of the center of the room. That one sent chills down my spine!

    This thread was creeping me out, until I realized that I think the OP is a young 'un.

    I have some toy story type thoughts that when I leave the room there are these thousands of transformers trapped on shelves and in boxes. They probably go to war when I leave the room and thats why I always am missing parts and weapons. I mentioned it to my friend once, we had a laugh. He said my loose collection talks to my sealed collection like they are in prison behind glass. We laughed some more.

    Lugnut likes to go around my room asking everyone to convert to Megatron and carries his mace like a holy cross or something....

    Well, my Deep Space Starscream tries to kill anyone who attempts to transform him - those missile launchers are really sensitive.

    Apart from that, I don't notice much bizarre behaviour from my TFs. My Ninja Turtles figures, on the other hand, are another matter. My stone generals figures seem to regularly attempt to leap off my shelf - probably to safety, since I've got my Nightwatcher figure and his motorcycle there. But there is no escaping the Nightwatcher, fools!
