My Life With Transformers

In 1986, something great happened in Planet Earth. The invasion of robots of Autobots and Decepticons into Planet Earth's TV sets. Yet, all this happened when the Americans discovered the robots of Diaclone Robots of Takara Japan in early 80s. They were amazed by how the toy could transformed from cars, trucks and even insects into robots.

From the toys, they came out with 3 pilot episodes of Transformers. It was a huge success! From there, the rest was history. The Transformers invade planet Earth.

Unlike many rich kids, I couldn't afford a Transformer toy when I was a kid. I could only play my neighbour's toys. Throughout my childhood I never owned a Transformers toy, only a few Thundercats toys.

The introduction of the Transformers (cartoon) the movie back then brought more attention to the series. From there, the series eventually went unpopular in years later on.

The series that came with Generation 2, Beast wars and Beast machines. Only then when Car Robots series were shown, it caught my attention again. My supported my younger brother to collect the series where later I got addicted to it.

I started my Transformers collections 6-7 years ago. Getting the right book to keep intact what to get and also hooked on eBay for the more vintage collections. From toys collecting, I met lots of collectors and fans. Many that wouldn't believe how huge my collections was.

* Ultra Rare G1 Collections include Headmaster Scorponok, Leokaiser, Star Saber, Omega Supreme and Overlord...


As time goes by, I joined Transmy, Malaysia's Biggest Transformers Fan Club. Later on, they made me a moderator.

At the peak of my Transformers collecting, I had around 600 pieces of different Transformers toys. I sold partial of them out as it put a lot of weight on my credit card bill.

I probably left around 300-500 pieces of Transformers toys now.

I was once interviewed by TV3's Remaja for my toys collecting passion. Something that I'm very proud of until today.


*Me being Optimus Prime wannabe with real Soundwave transformed to a mp3 player!

In 2005, a big news hit the Transformers fandom. A movie shall be made for Transformers. Millions of Transformers fans talked about it. The first initial director for the movie was Steven Spielberg! Everyone was happy when the rumors spread out. Yet, until Michael Bay (a non Transformers fan) announced as the director, many opposed. During the initial planning stages, some fans eventually hacked to Bay's computer and retrieved the original artwork of Transformers The Movie. The artwork then spreaded across the Internet and millions of Transformers couldn't believe what they've seen! Abuses and hate mails were then hurled to Michael Bay.

Yet, when the movie screened in 2007, it became an overnight success. Within the first few weeks, the trilogy was announced. Michael Bay didn't let the millions of Transformers fans down unlike Dragonball's James Wong. He revolutionised Transformers.

At the same time, United International Pictures Malaysia brought the movie in for the local fans. Without UIP, there's no Transformers The Movie in Malaysia. I'm really grateful because I watched the movie the same week as in US. In fact, I watched it a few days earlier in the Transformers Premiere organized by UIP for Transmy. In return, Transmy collaborated with UIP to produce the FIRST Robotcon in Malaysia at CineLeisure.

Local collectors (includes me) brought our toys to Robotcon to showcase our toys to the local public. We hired our own security guards to guard the "love of our lives".

The movie's success also brought another problem. The shortage of the toys. Thousands of movie lovers flocked to local toy stores to find that most of the toys were sold out.

tf-movie-mad rush

People queued and rushed to any shop that had the toys. This was taken at a local toy shop and many were waiting for the Transformers toys.

tf-movie1

Of course, I got prepared and had mine...

So then, Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen is coming by end month. I'm getting ready to watch the movie multiple times again.

tf-movie2

And also I already made my move and purchased some of the Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen toys.

This could be my longest post I did in my blog.

After so many years, I still can't get enough of Transformers! Will UIP nice enough to give me some tickets for the Transformers 2: Revenge Of The Fallen Premiere Tickets as well as the toys?

It will all depends on them.

But at the mean time, I'll get entertain by my beloved Bumblebee....


With over 190,000 hits on Youtube, MY Bumblebee still sings to me!

I'll be THERE!!

ITs called the preview wave. Bumblebee and Soundwave.

Bumblebee looked a bit bulky than the previous version.

Transformers G1 Encore 15 Cassettes Big Mission

encore 15

The latest Transformers G1 Encore 15 Cassettes Big Mission comes with Eject, Rewind, Laserbeak and Ravage. Its a great collection as cassettes are hard to come by. More over its Eject and Rewind.

It has just released in the market last week. A must have for G1 / Generation 1 collector like me. Released by Tomy Takara.

Transformers G1 E-Hobby Twincast & Flipsides

twincast

One of the most sought Transformers before E-Hobby reissued it. The Decepticon version of Blaster, Twincast. Twincast comes with Flipsides.

Released by Takara few years ago and sold out in the market. Mostly available on Ebay now.

Transformers C-15 Henkei Inferno

henkei-inferno

Trust this wasn't intentional.

I never mean to update this blog monthly but lately work has been piling up and I didn't really buy any new stuffs lately.

Similar to G1 Inferno. Robot mode looked a bit bulky. This piece should be still in the market.

Till all are one.

Transformers Tomy Takara E-Hobby Encore G1 Sunstorm Collector Series

Tomy Takara finally did something good! Reissuing Sandstorm was the very least expected. Now no longer need to spend around US 150 on it from ebay. I guess many G1 collectors or fanatics like me will like this. Till all are one!

Transformers Tomy Takara E-Hobby Encore Black G1 Megatron Collector Series

Something that I never thought of they would reissue this. A black G1 Megatron E-Hobby Exclusive! For this, I had the complete series of G1 Megatron. Red and blue leg version and now black version.

Transformers Henkei Hound And Ravage Tomy Takara

Probably the hardest to get in the whole entire Henkei series. I had been very low profile on my Transformers collection lately. I had sold quite a number of my collections but I do keep up with a few collections as well. Stay tuned, more toys will be revealed.

After a few weeks of searching, I found Henkei Hound with a reasonable price. The price for this has gone up quite a bit due to shortage in the market right now. Will update the rest very soon. Thanks for reading

MegaHouse Mospeada 1/15 Ray and Stick Variable Action

Megahouse Stick And Ray 1/15




I haven't got time to play with it yet. In my room eating dust now.

I have a few collections of Mospeada. Even though I'm a fan of it, not as huge as Transformers and Thundercats.

Transformers Takara Armada MC-06 Optimus Prime

One of the few Armadas I had. Had, means I sold this. Sold it last year because I had the full version with trailer. I got this from Singapore. This is the deluxe version of Optimus Prime Armada series.

Dragonball Z Super Battle Collection No. 18 Gotenks Bandai

The normal version of Gotenks. Gotenks are transformation of Go Ten (son of Son Goku) and Trunks (son of Vegeta). Made by Bandai, I got this from a warehouse sale few years ago.

I loved this character in manga particularly against evil Majinbu. A different of variety of combo moves with Picollo.

There are newer version of this issued by Bandai. More articulations.

Transformers Energon Wing Saber Hasbro

Another Powerlinx character. Wing Saber.


There isn't much to talk to about this guy. Another Energon character that price went up after the Transformers the movie came out. One of the harder character to get in the series. Capable to powerlink with most of the other Autobots.

Sold this piece 2 years ago, clearing my Energon series.

Tuesday, February 17, 2009

Transformers TF-05 Six Train Zone Series

Takara TF-05 Micromaster Six Train. Little I knew about this lot. I had this from ebay a few years ago.

I sold it at the end of the day. I only had this micromaster combiner alone, so I felt weird and I sold it off. Too bad the prices for this shot up so high lately.

Monday, February 16, 2009

Transformers Energon Grimlock & Swoop

I never really seen this in the series as I didn't really finish the series anyways. The deal is sometimes when you relate to Grimlock and Swoop, the toy will be a HOT item. This twin pack was fast sold out in the market. If lucky enough, toy shops might had it in a slightly higher price.

I had this for a while before I sold it last year. I prefer the vintage Dinobots than this.

Coke Coca-Cola Metal Signs

Coke Metal Signs to me are quite memorable than cans. Unlike cans, metal signs are only available to Coke Stores so getting one is uneasy.


Plain Coca Cola Metal Sign...Vintage "Old-School" Coke Bottle Metal Sign, I prefer this one. Mainly because my interest in old items.

Gifts from my brother in US, bought from Coke Shop in US.

Coke NYC Times Square Post Card



A lovely Coke Edition NYC Times Square Post Card. Picture is partially chromed. A gift from my brother from US.
