User:Autobot Etaoin

Hola, I'm Etaoin. Well, in-universe anyway. However, due to copyright issues, I had to be renamed "Autobot Etaoin" instead.

...In other words, I forgot the password to my original account, simply "Etaoin", and forgot to give my email so that I could be emailed my password. Ah well. I never actually did anything on that account, if I remember correctly.

Anywho, I got into Transformers somewhere in the middle of RID, although I remember very little about it. I continued through the Unicron Trilogy, and even into the live action movies. I didn't care much for the movies' main plots, but the subplots about those giant robots were pretty cool.

And then Animated came. I saw the art style, and I thought it'd be stupid. The designs were so...kiddie! How dare a toy-fueled cartoon series about giant transforming robots be marketed towards kids?! But then I watched it. Holy freaking crap. The voice acting, the mythology gags, the plots... And the more I saw the designs, the more I appreciated the intricacy, and the way they were more open about giving the characters body shapes fitting of their personalities, where a lot of other TF series just gave them blocky designs to fit with their alt-modes. Then when the toys came out, Hasbro actually managed to get the proportions right and everything. It was pretty amazing. Animated was one of the best TF cartoons I'd ever watched.

I went on to watch but a few episodes of G1 and the Beast Era. Watching The Transformers: The Movie is on my to-do list right now.
