I never liked it as a kid myself, unless you count Beast Wars that was all. Then I just decided on whim to re watch Beast Wars. Then after loving it so much I kinda wanted to know...what happened BEFORE Beast Wars.
Then Suddenly this large door appeared in the middle of my room with the words TF FANDOM in Transformers G1 text on its surface. As I opened the door I was consumed by a light that flickered like a dieing bulb. I squinted my eyes the bright flashes of light hurting my retinas as I start to move beyond the door. I suddenly feel something lift me up by the waist as the flashing light suddenly dims until everything is pitch black. I look left and right for some answer as I feel my body being set down on cold hard steel. A pair of red lights break away the darkness and now I see the world I have entered is filled with some of the most amazing works of art, story's, toys, stuffed animals, crafts, costumes, music, comics and animation I have every laid eyes upon. I find myself riding on the shoulder of my idol as a child Megatron from Beast wars. He turns to me and says. " You will join me in the glory that is myself and..maybe the rest of the other Megatrons...yes. We had tea and energon cakes later that day.
And that is why I am in this fandom.
