    That toy's probably the same size as your baby.

    My son is getting TLK Leader Megatron.

    This thread gives me a sad...all my kids, niece and nephew are damn near grown, so no more toy-giving.

    My daughters need a few Rescue Bots to complete their team.

    My 2 (almost 3) year old is getting Rescue Bots Boulder and Morbot.

    My 5 year-old is getting Rescue Bots Medix and the complete G1 series on DVD... minus the movie. Saving that for another time. Right now, all she knows from watching the TV is Optimus went away and left Rodimus his leadership jewel... then returned and wanted it back. I'm not showing her the carnage quite yet.

    My 2 year old is getting one of those Rescue-bots playsets. He love 'BotBots' as he calls them.
    He's also getting a little 'Yay-Yo' which is what i've recently found out is his way of saying 'Artoo'.

    Thus far, she hasn’t fully understood that episode. I just tell her it’s a fake Optimus... of course, we haven’t watched that one in a while.

    Frankly, she probably suspects the truth, but the movie would shove her face in it.

    I don't think she's getting any this year. She asked for art supplies. I know she wants a second Shuffler. She's also interested in. Blitzwing and Octane.

    I take it back. She's getting Beach Comber.

    I tracked down a certain newbie Aerialbot for my sister for Christmas to go with the Offroad I bought her for her birthday. She adores those two as a duo.
    Given their respective prices, I'm either insanely generous or a complete sucker

    I am, legally, still a kid, therefore I am a kid in my life, but I have no idea what I'm getting. I know I asked for POTP Grimlock, MP Tracks and Cheetor, and TR Overlord, but then there's other stuff on my list like money to finance my WrestleMania trip in April, Sennheisers, a couple of WWE Defining Moments figures (2008 Ric Flair and 1998 Sting), stuff like that.

    My 4 11/12 year old daughter is quite insistent that I need to get her an Arcee figure. She REALLY wants the one whose head comes off and turns into a little robot. She mentions this daily, almost. She also wants a pink robot dinosaur. I am not sure exactly what my wife has picked out for Charlotte for Christmas so far, but if there is ANY chance I can nab her that Arcee, I will. Barring that, I have been eying Strongarm and Windblade from RID, which she actually watches.

    I have no kids in my life and no wife. All the money and all Transformers are MINE! MUAHAHAAHAHAHAHA





    Uh sorry :D 

    But if I had a kid, I would probably get him Trypticon, he's too big for my collection, giving one to my kid would be a great way to still have one :D  Isn't that the sneaky thing dad's do sometimes? I even heard from people where the men gifted their wives things they actually wanted for themselves... what a dick move. But for kids... I think it works in a way :D 

    Also I would like to play with my kid. Playing alone as an adult is something I'm not interested in, can't get into that. But playing with your kid must be nice.

    Sadly my 4 (almost 5) year old nephew (and niece) haven't really caught the transformers bug yet. I keep trying to push them into legos (as I have a metric s-ton of them for not being a lego guy), and that is what I went with for Christmas this year (though not sure why I bought sets with the tubs I have). Been holding about 8 decent SW sets if they ever do get into legos, as well as a bunch of city sets. Next year I am going to spoil the hell out of them if either of them do get into Transformers or legos.

    If all else fails on those fronts, I am going to really push my 1yo nephew into transformers and legos (as I don't see kids of my own in my future).
