transformer

this is my first transformer, or at least whats left of him... i remember getting this for christmas. my brother got one that year too, i got the cop car, and he got the race car. we both loved getting them, and for me, this started my life long love of all things transformers!
this one is from back in the day, back when they used to make the outsides out of metal instead of cheap plastic like they do now.
almost all the transformers at the time had one transforming move in common: the waist swivel. almost all the vehicles included twisting the top half around and making it face the other way. it was a cool twist, but unfortunately, it made the middle of the figure very weak and easy to break, as is evident by what remains of this poor toy...
