My nephew came to play today

Post by Clay »

Yesterday, my set of original Stunticons came in the mail, and my nephew and I had a good time playing cars on the couch. So, I invited him and my mom to come by my apartment today and play some more.

I dragged out the box of little Transformers and let him sort through those. It was complete sensory overload for a two year old boy :). He also picked a few cars off the shelves to play with, which naturally happened to be the rarest figures I have: Alternators Swerve and Chevy Aveo Swerve! As it turns out, they roll just as well as any of the others.

We had lunch, and I sent him home with a few Spychangers (they're just the size that he likes, and don't have any loose parts). I think he had a good day.

My 20 month old son also only seems to go for the rarest or most mintest Tfs I have so it must be a toddler thing.
On a rolling update Alternator Catcar Ravage is the best he has found so far as it goes a lot further than any of his Cyber Slammers(only missing a Concept BB for his full set)
My Gf says Im too old for Tfs(32) and hes too young as they are 3+ but we just get on with it and drown her out.
He also loves pushing 1 of my G1 Scorponoks and making all the legs move.
Loss of job. Will sell for food here.

i used to race my lazer rods, and i they did roll extremely well. i miss those. the rubber band and gi joe like joints broke and they are so hard to fix or find parts for :(. it's good to see kiddos having fun times anymore and taught to not be too destructive. my nephew somehow broke the TMNT toys I had from the eighties and nineties, and try as i might back then, they never broke, i figured those things were indestructible, but he found a way lol.

The punishment plan I have for my offspring is to install a glass door to the office/toy room and then lock myself inside and look like I'm having the best time playing with toys while the kid(s) have to sit outside and watch.

Cool pictures dude! Looks like you guys had fun. I had Animated Starscream attack a convoy of Lego racers my stepson was transporting through the kitchen yesterday, he enjoyed the role playing, especially when he realized Starscream wasn't going down so easily by his Lego guys and their weapons. He remarked..."Oh yeah..he has an Allspark fragment in his head! No use trying to kill that one!"

Kids are cool 99% of the time.....
