It's December so we're allowed to talk about this now, right?

My boy is well into Transformers, want to get him some for xmas but there seem to be around 4 variants of the detailed type

I want to get him one set so he can collect but which?

Prime deluxe
Cyberverse
Prime voyager
Prime robots in disguise

Any parents out there with same or similar dilemma?

    My daughters birthday is 29/11 so we get Xmas and Bday in one hit.

    Don't go to Hamleys - rip off central.

    Smyths at North Woolwich is much better than the Charlton one. As is the one at Thurrock.

    OK some like Optimus are in voyager size because they are bigger and scaled to work with the smaller deluxe like bumblebee

    yay

    My kids are grown up now (31 and 29) but I have fond and sometimes bitter memories of trying to buy them:

    - Transformers
    - WWF wrestling ring and figures
    - He-Man and the Masters of the universe figures and outfits
    - Thundercats stuff
    - Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles gear

    Any other dads whose sons were born in 1981-1983 or thereabout will share my feelings!

    Treasure the times though Raz and others, they grow up very quickly.

    My son plays with my old masters of the universe figures. My mum kept them and brought them over last summer for him.
