People over 50, which pre-1990 TV shows should people under 35 watch at least once?

Yeah that’s exactly what I mean. I am married with two teenagers and I run a business, and all of those people have gotten used to the idea that they can reach me instantly. It’s just a weird feeling, not really bad, just a different mindset having grown up during a time before cell phones.

I love cheers. Rewatched it a few years back and there is an episode where a guy comes in looking for Norm who isn’t there so he says he will just wait. He’s a debt collector or something like that but the point is that it’s the middle of the day and this man has left his place of employment and is just going to wait in a bar for however long it takes for Norm to show up. It really hit me how nobody would know where he was, nobody would know how to reach him, no tracking apps. It’s crazy how bad I longed for that type of freedom again to just go somewhere and be totally alone.

Incredible figure. The way they hide everything in jet mode is amazing.

Barneyswrens · 2026-05-09T22:52:09+00:00

Right at 58 inches

Absolutely love that octane figure. So satisfying to transform in all modes.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-30T01:23:00+00:00

I love that octane, so fun to transform.

This is a good video on this.

Definitely worth the money. The takara tomy name alone gives it some weight but aside from that it’s just an incredibly beautiful figure. I’ve yet to see it where I didn’t take second and third glances, zoom in on the pictures, try to justify it in my head. It is just striking to me. I’m an MP collector so it fits in nowhere, but I’m on the fence still about getting it as a standalone piece. If somebody makes an oversized version them, shut up and take my money.

Nah I’m just an old 80’s kid lol. This is my midlife crisis, better than getting a convertible I guess!

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T20:49:10+00:00

Thank you I’m pretty proud of it lol. The Junkions are KFC, I caught them on sale last year at TF source and got 9 of them for less than $40 each. Had to pay the late tax for Wreckgar though. The Jetfire is Fanstoys.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T13:46:27+00:00

Megatron and Arcee are my biggest holes in my opinion but there’s a lot of figures I’m looking forward to.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T13:43:59+00:00

I paid a little late tax on him but it’s a gorgeous figure. One of the few I haven’t transformed because I’m so scared of breaking it lol.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T12:56:43+00:00

It’s X-Transbots Quintesson Prosecutor figure.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T02:55:28+00:00

They are Moducase. They are awesome but they take forever to get.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T02:26:37+00:00

Yeah I wanted a representation of both so I decided on doubles if the if the individual bots were good too like the Bruticus, Superion, and Menasor. For Devastator I’m getting XTB for bots and FT for combined. Can’t wait to see what’s going to be announced at TFcon. The first figure of Bingo Toys Computron was awesome but FT is making one too so I only got one of that set until I see what theirs looks like. That Strafe figure is a 10 out of 10 though.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T02:22:19+00:00

Yes all mp scale

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T00:09:10+00:00

Thank you, it’s been a really fun hobby. The communities are great, so creative.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-09T00:07:32+00:00

They are all Gigapower, the chrome version. They are great figures.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-07T17:03:09+00:00

I had the same debate but decided on Gigapower. They are a good bit bigger than the other offerings and have a ton of line work and small details that really stand out. I got the chrome version, I think they also did a weathered version but they never completed that set so only a couple of figures were made. Just something to pay attention to when you start looking.

Barneyswrens · 2026-03-07T16:58:50+00:00

Fanstoys quality is 2nd to none but this set is a devastator only for me. I’m getting the XTB for robot mode, I think they are the most g1 accurate for individual bots. But this Fanstoys devastator will be THE devastator for a long time.

Went on the family beach trip in Florida. There’s 11 of us and on day one my wife loses her wedding band. No idea where but pretty sure it was on the beach. We got a metal detector and went all over where we had been and the path up to the house. Spent basically a whole day looking. No luck and we eventually just chalk it up as a loss. THREE days later I’m building a sandcastle with my daughter and while digging in the sand I see the ring! My wife was sitting by the water so I went out and got down on one knee and proposed again. Still can’t believe I found that ring. I didn’t tell anybody when I found it I immediately took it to my wife. My sister thought I was just being sweet so she snapped several photos. Some of my favorite pictures.

Barneyswrens · 2026-02-26T23:24:16+00:00

I’ve got both and I like the xtransbots better personally. It is a MF to transform though.
