How did YOU start?

One particularly good haul yeilded a very nice toy truck that due to having a soundbox and his name written on his trailer was easy to identify as Optimus Prime (it was the G2 version, though I wouldn't know that for quite a while).

On this note, as a kid I used to own loads of transformers (mix of G1 and G2 although at that time those concepts were alien to me). Some of those I didn't even realise were actual TF's until fairly recently. My last figures before the growing up hiatus were most likely beast wars characters: Cheetor, Dinobot, Tarantulas and Iguanas.
