I think most of us here can relate in some way.

Did you lose, or parents gave away, or any reason, did not have your childhood toy and desperately wish you'd not lost, or had kept it?

I lost almost all of my childhood toys in a move from Mass to Maryland.

My first Transformer was Jetfire, I got it for Christmas in '84 and I remember it was a Matsushiro Jetfire (an early variant of him, I found out some 20 years later) which, I became obsessed to replace, I got a C9 loose one some years ago, and then, I laid down a lot on ebay for an unused/unapplied MIB one.

Now I have LOTS of toys, mostly TFs and GI Joes, and great memories, but every time I see my Jetfire I smile and think of better times, it just takes me back to that day as a 6 yr old on Christmas where it all began.

I feel the same about my 85 Snake Eyes and Timber, but he is one of the few that survived along with Prime, even though I lost his weapons lol
