I just made a little kid's day!
And no, ya pre-verts, not like that!
I Finally replaced my '07 Leader Prime with the HFTD Power Hooks/Give Me Your Face Prime, and after a little customizing he looks great!
Anyways, I was going to donate '07 Prime to Value Village, but I was a little hesitant because I was including his missile, instrcutions and tech specs, and I didn't want them to get separated. And since I have worked at VV in the past I know that often happens.
I also really wanted a kid to get it rather than having it get snapped up by a collector like us.
So, the wife and I are loading some stuff into the car on Sunday along with stuff we were going to donate like '07 Prime, when one of my neighbors came out with his boy taking out the recycling; and as we were talking I looked at the kid and asked him "Say, do you like Transformers?", he shyly nodded yes, "Well then I think I have something for you." I went into the back of the car, pulled out Prime and gave it to him.
The look on his face was priceless, he was completely exstatic!
He was so excited that I knew he'd be playing with it all day, and I was right. When we came home later that night I heard the engine sound effect coming from the kid's window
It was exactly what I wanted. For my toy that has lovingly been cared for on my shelf for the last 4 years to go to a kid who was going to love the crap out of it and really play with it the way it was meant to be.
