3563	Article	mickyarber	First off, I too was a huge Gobots fan, and took a lot of flak from my friends because they all thought Transformers were cooler. Secondly, I absolutely love those old pictures of your Christmas. I'm such a sucker for old family Christmas pics, and these really hit the spot. Third, being around that age and getting a camera is something really special isn't it? In 1988, I got a video recorder that used a special kind of cassette tape, and you could hook it up to the tv and play back whatever you recorded. Awesome sauce! Great Christmas memories in this one, and so glad you shared it and those awesome pictures.		Dec 12, 2016

3572	Article	Rick Ace Rhodes	I never got to play with Go Bots because they were before my time, but I honestly wish they were still around. Given the poor quality of Transformers times now and even when I was young, Go Bots probably would of been cooler to play with. Mainly because Tonka has always been a quality brand of toys.

3574	Article	Hoju Koolander	Ah, sweet Christmas memories. Nothing better than vintage 80s holiday pics. I had a GoBots binocular set I got around 85 or 86, so this really took me back.	Christmas 1985 Through My Gobots Camera Lens	Dec 13, 2016

3580	Article	SockofFleagulls	@rickacerhodes Gobots truly get a bad rap. Transformers has a great legacy but Gobots had a decent cartoon with great toys. @HojuKoolander Glad it jogged some memories! @oldschool80s Merry Christmas! Waiting for your entry now!

3647	Article	Superman	I enjoyed this article. It reminds me of my own first camera. It was an ordinary kids camera not connected to any particular brand like yours was, but I enjoyed pretending I was Peter Parker (Spider-Man) as I took pictures of my family and my pet cat.

3558	Article	Vaporman87	Awwww... man. Talk about disappointment. I'm guessing your parents were hitting every thrift store and yard sale they could find to try and make things right, to no avail. Bummer. But hey, an SNES! LOL. I can just see you pounding away gleefully on that controller while occasionally looking over at your bro and sighing before refocusing on the 16 bit glory.

3562	Article	mickyarber	Holy crap man. Your article last year struck a nerve with me, and now you bust out this Christmas classic. I know it may have been years ago, but I'm sitting here today feeling so sorry for your bother. This is a really good tale, and the pictures you chose are spot on. Nice work. As a side note, I remember a radio station running a contest back in '99 for a new Toyota. They had all kinds of entries, but it turned out all they were giving away was a "toy Yoda" as a tie in to the new Star Wars movie. There were a lot of angry people who claimed false advertising. It wasn't pretty.	Christmas Conundrum	Dec 12, 2016
3565	Article	vkimo	@micky- My wife told me about that shortly after I told her about the article. Although in this case it was a Hooters restaurant doing the prank as a sales contest, the waitress sued though. I guess the confusion for Yoda and pickups isn't ungrounded, which should cheer him up haha	Christmas Conundrum	Dec 12, 2016
