If you were to introduce someone to Transformers...

[jourdo]

What is the ONE figure you would start them off with?

I'm not talking about anyone in particular, but just some hypothetical person who wants to get into the wonderful world of the robots in disguise.

It could be any figure, from any line. Who would it be and why?

I've got to ponder this one myself.

[Torque]

G1 Optimus prime.
Then I would follow that up with classics Optimus and then an alternators optimus

[CBII]

depends if they liked tfs as a kid or not?

I'd say MP Prime or Megatron or Starscream either of those will do.

After that Alternators.

MP-10!

Depends if they're a kid or an older person. If it's a kid then I'd look at their age, but if they're older, I'd just let em look at a bunch of shit & see what tickles their tailpipe.

[brr-icy]

mp-10 if they're 25+ years old

Personally, anything Masterpiece!

Classics voyager Prime

It's a good mix of quality, detail, a good transformation, a recognizable character, and styling that represents Transformers. The size is big enough to be significant, yet small enough to fit comfortably on a desk without being intrusive. Plus, you can tell them that the original price was only about 30$, whereas with MP figures you might scare them with the 100-400$ price tags that go along with them.



If all else fails though, you could always ask them if they want to have a look at your Erector

Hush.......I'm thinking......
