    Definitely one of the Constructicons. Pretty sure it was Bonecrusher.

    Bumblejumper. But I played with him to death, and broke him to pieces :banghead: 

    My brother's first was red Bumblebee. He's 2 years YOUNGER than me, but I still have that bumblebee because he didn't play with it as much. ...Oh yeah, he broke one of the hinges for the head. Years later I would take a yellow bumblebee and swap the backs so it would be intact again. I had forgotten...

    G1 Skywarp for an early 8th b-day present in fall '84, shorthly thereafter got G1 Ratchet, G1 Bumblebee, & Soundwave w/ Buzzsaw for my actual birthday. Wow, I guess it's sorta snowballed from there. Skywarp is still my favorite G1 Transformer, a little nostalgia goes a long way.

    Beastwars Megatron. I no longer have him, threw him out while cleaning up my room because my friend said he was broken and wasnt worth keeping. The chest piece for his beast mode broke off and dissapeared, as well as the projectiles for his hip weapons. I do have my step-brother's, which is in much better condition than mine was...But I do regret throwing some of my toys out >.<

    I got him for X-mass when I was like...7-8 years old and I was obsessed with dinosaurs. I had never heard of transformers or beastwars, but I was facinated by a toy that went from a Tyranosaurus Rex to a robot. It took me a while to learn how to transform him, and I wasn't a very patient child...Nearly broke it...After getting some other toys from the Beastwars line, I learned I had a knack for transforming even the most complicated of bots without the instructions.

    My first TF toy was a small Happy Meal toy that was only test marketed in parts of Missouri. I sold them a few years back for a good chunk of cash. I miss them, but it was a really good chunk of cash...like 30 bucks a pop.

    But my first official transforming Transformer was Hound back in 1985. I know it was 85 cause Tracks was on the shelf.

    I don't really have a first Transformer. I got mine during Christmas and my parents gave me a bunch at the time.

    Brawn (only one I still have)
    Jetfire (God, I wish I still had that one)
    Trailbreaker (I loved this little guy)
    Prowl (he was alright)
    Bumblebee (I forget how many times I lost that little bugger)
    Megatron (This guy rocked!)
    Gears (in all his blue and red goodness)
    Sunstreaker (I remember pissing my Dad off with him)

    G1 Prowl....my mom was working at a drug store at the time and in the toy section they got a case or two of Transformers...she picked one up for a friend of mine's birthday, and immediately when I saw it I was in love. We went back and bought the same one for me, and that's where it started.
