Favorite Toy Ever:
Grimlock (G1)
Poe Ghostal received his first toy, a Mighty Mouse figure, at age three. Thus began a lifelong interest (some might say obsession) with toys. A child of the 1980s, he grew up on Star Wars, He-Man & Transformers toys, as well as more obscure lines such as Power Lords, Robo Force, and Manglors.
Poe has written about toys for IGN.com and ToyFare magazine. He was a founder of OAFE.net and has been a guest reviewer for Michael Crawford’s popular review site.
From the fine folks at ToyFare comes this great Twisted ToyFare Theater video:
Funny, I would never have thought Ultra Magnus had the stones.

I like Hot Rod: “Look at me, Optimus, I’m helping!”
And he’s rewarded for his moronicity by becoming the next Prime. Fabulous.

Good stuff. “Look at me, I’m helping…”. Too much. I’m guessing those are the Revoltech figures…may have to pick those up after all…

“Funny, I would never have thought Ultra Magnus had the stones.”
He’s got the stones, but he can’t deal with that right now!

Haha, yeah, UM was pretty pathetic in that movie. And then the Junkions rebuild him. So why couldn’t they rebuild Brawn and Ratchet? Bull****.

Megatron was a Revoltech. Optimus and Hot Rod were Mega SCFs from Takara. - Z

@Paul–I love Transformers: the Movie. The 200-page Transformers fanfic I wrote when I was fifteen (thus cementing my complete geek status for the rest of my natural life) was inspired by the events of the movie. I sat Shivah for Optimus when he died. I danced to Dare to Be Stupid. I talked TV. And I referred to Orson Welles as “that guy who was in the Transformers movie.”
@Zach–That’s good to know! Thanks for stopping by.
