I try to use avatars as a quick reference to recognise people here but you're making it hard. I have to stop and actually read the name now just to be sure!!

LoL!
Yea, I do go through a lot of them. I like my avatars.

I decided to put my entry in
1) “Tell us why/how you became a fan/what got you started/what you began to like or love about
Transformers....if it started with Diaclone, a toy, TV episode, comic, or anything Transformers.”

I became a fan when I was in elementary school. My brother and I used to tgo to our friends’ to take the bus. One morning, we saw this awesome show that had great CGI and awesome voices and characters. So, the next day, we watched I and this time we started to watch it from the start of the episode and I caught the show’s title : Beast Wars. I was so great that a couple of weeks after watching the series, I decided to get a toy of one character. So, I went to Wal-Mart and got me an Optimal Optimus and out of all my toys from my childhood, he was the best of them. Then, I got a few others. I took a break from collecting Beast Machines toys and then got a couple of RID toys. Then, I decided to take a break when RID ended. I didn’t have cable back then so no there was no Armada or Energon for me. I decided to collect and play a certain children’s card game til my sister got sick of it. So, she told me to do a more productive. Then, I came back to Transformers when Cybertron was on the shelves and airing on one of the last years of Kids WB. The rest is history.

2) “Then, tell us who your favorite Transformer character is, and WHY, and if you were a Transformer, who would you be, and WHY (you may be your favorite or a different character).”

Cybertron Evac, because he’s cool-headed, optimistic, level headed, and good humored. Plus, he knows Circuit-Su.

3)” Then, tell us which faction you like better, Autobot, Decepticon, or Neutral, and WHY”.

Autobots, because you get to play basketball or in the snow when you’re not kicking Decepticon skidplate

4)” Then, tell us what you would do with Transformers, whether it be making new or making changes to comics, TV show, toy line, or movie, and WHAT about any of it you would change.”

Movie- Change the director
Toy line- Make this year has an awesome varied (not just movie toys) end to the 25th anniversary of Transformers
TV Show- Maybe give Animated a proper closure in the comics.
Comics- Have Simon Furman be the head writer of comics again.

Evac, transform!

1) Tell us why/how you became a fan/what got you started/what you began to like or love about Transformers....if it started with Diaclone, a toy, TV episode, comic, or anything Transformers.

I was a fan of Beast Wars growing up. I got up every morning and watched the show before school and collected a few of the toys, but Pokemon took over and sort of shut down the Transformers obsessed fan girl for a time. Then the 2007 live action Transformers movie brought me back in late 2007 when it was released to DVD. My dad rented it and I sat down and watched thinking it was just going to be another one of those "whatever" movies for me. By the end of the movie my mouth was wide open and I wanted the movie in our collection. A couple of weeks later toward Christmas time a friend of mine and I decided we wanted to go into Toys R Us to look around. I found the Transformers section and decided I wanted to get one. So my dad bought my friend and I our first Transformer and it sort of evolved from there. I started researching the hell out of Transformers. I wanted to know about EVERYTHING. Movies, televisions shows, comics, toys, etc Then I stumbled upon a giant TF collection and from that moment on I decided I wanted to collect Transformer toys and merchandise.

2) Then, tell us who your favorite Transformer character is, and WHY, and if you were a Transformer, who wouldnyou be, and WHY (you may be your favorite or a different character).

My favorite character is Blackout from the live action movie. He was obviously the first Transformer that I'd seen since Beast Wars and something just instantly clicked when I saw him transform and destroy everything in sight. Plus I've always been more into villains.

If were a Transformer then I'd probably be Megatron's ruthless second in command, and my second favorite Transformer in the world, Starscream. It'd be cool to work along side the Decepticons and even command them while Megatron was away. Plus I get a cool alt mode.

3) Then, tell us which faction you like better, Autobot, Decepticon, or Neutral, and WHY.

Decepticons FOREVER! Most of my favorite characters are 'Cons and like I said above I've always been more attracted to villains. In the live action movie I was more drawn to the Decepticon designs than the Autobots. They looked bad ass to me, and I'm all for badassery.

4) Then, tell us what you would do with Transformers, whether it be making new or making changes to comics, TV show, toy line, or movie, and WHAT about any of it you would change.

I'd want to be involved with the live action movies some how, some way. The only thing I'd change about it is the fact the movie Decepticons seem so weak, and yet they make them out to be so powerful. I'd change them to be truly menacing.
