    When I was relatively young I stepped on TM2 Sonar. That really sucked. I bought a replacement MOSC from BBTS last year for like, 5 dollars. I was really happy to have him back in my collection. I love basic and scout size guys.

    Someone sat on my fucking MP Prime and broke a piece in side the knee and know he has one knee joint in his right leg, I believe. Also when my friend was transforming a fresh out of the box Universe Treadbolt, he broke an ear piece of the helmet. So, I'm still pretty PISSED OFF that someone sat MP Prime.

    EDIT: Oh, yeah! After looking for HOURS for a Classic Camaro Bee, I found one. I transformed it, AND THE FUCKING HOOD WOULDN'T BACK INTO PLACE. This wouldn't be a big deal but, I went looking for HOURS searching every Target, Wal Mart and ToysRus from Ogden to Provo, UT. The same friend mentioned about put my Supercon Armada OP (first figure I every got) and put in the spokes of a ike and turned the petal. Almost every ball joint popped off. Thankfully, I popped everything back on but, his arm has never really been the same >.<

    I dropped my Classics Starscream and one of his wing pegs snapped. I got a friend who did a lot of model planes though, so maybe he can help.

    when I was a kid I broke my RiD Optimus Prime's wheel! I had to take him back and get one with new wheels, but that broke too. :( 

    I still have RiD magnus though :)

    as a kid somehow g1 soundwaves tape door broke, and ravage (my fav. cassette) was stuck in there forever. doh.

    several months ago i bought a 100% complete g1 devs, i took him out of the box, sat down on the bed and went about putting him together, i was finishing up when i kept hearing a crunching sound, i look over at my dog, just in time to watch him spit out the bits of what used to be devastator's right wrist piece. FML.

    Story: I had been away from Transformers for a while and when I was a young kid I lost intrest. I put all of my TFs in a storage tub. I'm 17 now and I'm really in to it, but in 2006 I started to get back in to them. I pulled out the tub and I put pieces back together, and I found out how bad I was at keeping things in good condition when I was young. I had to get rid of a lot of TFs because they were missing a lot of pieces and limbs. I was mad but I kept about 30 of them and now I'm really into collecting, but the lack of money is a hendrance.

    After getting my hands on a MP Starscream USA edition, I managed to crack one of the wing pivot joints ( not the one where everyone has has problems with him ), the ones where the actual wing's peg unto the back in robot mode. I almost fainted, I yelled so many obscenities that my wife came running into the room thinking I had a heart attack or something, when she saw what happened she actually felt sad ( she knew how much I wanted and loved that figure), but I managed to repair him quite good with some Testors plastic cement and some sanding files, he's like new now.

    I managed to put Primes head where it should go. It got stuck. It took a flat head screwdriver to fix the issue. Now Prime has a mark on his head.

    Almost broke my Animated Prime also. I didn't look at the instructions. I didn't realize he transformed by driving.

    Never owned a G1 Mirage. So, when the day finally came that I found a really "nice" one on ebay for a really nice price, I was drunk with delight. When I took him out of the packaging and transformed him, he immediately snapped in two at the waist. Was able to take him apart and repair him using a small screw. To add to this disappointing story, had some problems with the seller.

    Hmmm...a while back, my family was pretty short on $$$ but I was lucky enough to get BM Scavenger for a birthday gift, and I LOVED that thing. It was so freakin' cool. And one day when I was pulling the little thing on the back of his neck to make his mouth open (yes, I realize how homo-erotic that sounds) and the metal pin that held the lower jaw to the face just slid out. I put it back in, but it just didn't stay anymore. Still don't know what happened with that. I threw him away, but got the RiD repaint a few years later. I still have that one proudly displayed in my room. It reminds me of all the sh*t my family went through when I was young.
