Do you have any drawings you did of your favourite robots when you were a nipper? Post them here!

That is the happiest I have ever seen Kup.

Found in a box: Homemade Transformers Top Trumps, with characters made up by me (read copied and badly renamed) Spy Bin is a favourite.

I like the non-copyright infringing Road Rod
You should scan these in and get a set printed on laminated card! (seriously, shouldn't cost too much!)

He looks like a Goldbug knock off. And surely someone called Implanter would do more damage than a seven. Sounds painful.

Oh! We should have hub top trumps.
This must happen. We must decide categories.
Ralph will be Cynicism 10.
Andy will be Desperate Resignation 9.
Phil will be Law and Order 11.
That's right baby! Phil goes all the way to eleven!

What are the categories then?

Post by Pinwig on Mar 6, 2017 21:03:54 GMT
We could be radical and allow everyone to have their own categories. Which would then allow us to spend hours arguing about whether Andy's encyclopedic knowledge of Steven Segal films beats Phil's ability to spot bits of 2001 props appearing in Doctor Who.
(It doesn't)

I found this recently while doing some unpacking. Pretty sure aside from Metroplex, Quickmix and Spinister they are made up (some ink which provided detail has completely faded away from the grey / pink / purple one on the left, but I don't know who it could be anyway). -Jim

Hmm, what could CL be? Everything else looks taken from the tech spec cards. WHat's Tou as well? Toughness? Maybe CL means... courage? tfwiki.net/wiki/Tech_Spec

These are the other two 'decks' in the box, though think we are out of the 'nipper' territory now given that DH II was published in 1992 so I was 16. All clearly ripped from the pages of Marvel UK comics. Is this still TF relevant? Just about. Thanks for letting me share

I found some old school exercise books this afternoon, which reminded me that in January 87 for an English assignment at school I ripped off the movie completely and submitted it as a 19 page story assignment. Didn't even change the names and the dialogue is lifted from the comic adaptation. Made me laugh because this epic garnered the single response at the end, "you're still using commas instead of full stops".
Oh Mrs Creed, how your complete indifference to the enthusiasm of your pupils lingers in my memory.
I say this here because she did comment on the nice illustrations, which I'd scan but they're just tracings from the comic. Not original drawings.

Alright. Next time I'm in the archive I'll scan the pictures. They're just tracings done over in coloured pencil.

I think my mother still has some of my childhood drawings. I'll have to ask her.
Ralph, I'm telling you now, if you colour that Kup and put it on a T-shirt it will sell.

I would buy one. That Kup is just brilliant.
