DS2 has been watching the DVD all day which is actually quite good...BUT the toys...ARGHHHH! they take about 20 minutes to put them back to a car and then 5 minutes later DS is asking me to do it again. Bits are falling off it all the time and it never clips together the same way twice. I wish I hadn't rescued it from the Puppy's mouth now. HATE them.

I always wanted one when I was little but was told that they were "boy's toys" so I wasn't allowed. DS1 has them now. I tell him that it is only Daddy that can transform them just so I don't have the hassle!

yabu!
how old is your ds2?
mine is now 10 and been transformers obsessed for years, he couldnt transform them himself when he was little but now its unbelievable how fast he does them, i love the film too.
luckily i knew the names of them as my brother was really into transformers when we were little too, so he has now given ds1 all his old annuals etc!

Who has a transformer tattoo?

(I can't stand the sodding things, we've ended up owning a few of them, but they fall apart way too easily. I get on fine with bionicles, but transformers annoy me.)
