    I have been a Transformers fan since my early childhood, which was around Armada.

    Yeah. I've been a TF fan since Beast Wars. I used to watch it and the Unicron Trilogy on TV when I younger, and I was instantly hooked. I kinda dropped out of Transformers for a while until the live-action movies rolled in, then I got right back into the TF groove. :)

    I was a fan from the moment I watched the first episode of Armada when I was five. I remember coming home every day, tuning in to toonami on Cartoon Network, and eating mini peanut butter ritz crackers. Ah, those were the days!

    I got into the toys at the tail end of g2, I remember buying them at a hardwear store. I didn't religiously watch the cartoons as a kid because I played sports all the time and only had 2 TV channels as a kid, well I guess I'm still kinda a kid being 19 and all lol.

    I was a fan since '84. I left the franchise for a bit when I hit my teens and came back first in 2001, then back for good in 2005.

    I've been a fan since Energon. The movies nearly killed my interest.

    Of course I have. Been a fan since RID first aired (watched BW & BM, but never really got into either), and I'll probably be around for the foreseeable future. Though I didn't really come into the collector scene till late 2005 early 2006 due to Cybertron and a friend of mine introducing me to the TF online community, thus leading me here :D

    I can't say I was like I am today, but it all started with Beast Wars for me. It kinda fizzled out between Armada and Cybertron, but then the special edition '86 movie came out, and it started sparking my interest in Transformers media again. I started collecting again when the Classics hit the shelves, and the '07 movie had me hooked ever since.
