When "The Transformers" (G1) originally aired, I used to tape each ep and watch it back several times that week until the next ep aired. Kept them all, didn't tape over them. I liked to frame-advance thru the transformations to see what was going on.
When I had the figure, I'd check to see if they "got it right"; if I didn't, I'd see how they worked. Of course, I was well aware they often cheated or got it entirely wrong, but it was cool to see them in action. That's why most of these clips are transforms not entire eps.
The nature of YouTube means these will inevitably be deleted so I'm more interested in having fun posting various bits rather than slaving to build up an ep library. So while I'm open to suggestions, don't take it personally if I don't post your request.
You don't have to like everything; by all means discuss and disagree. But keep it friendly. I warn then I Block and Delete.
P.S. No Spoilers.

@Nekoshoujo821: Probably, yes. It was one of the first series I started with when I was AngelMagnus, however it all went away when I lost that account. When I started back up, I didn't like the prospect of having to do it all over again, so I just continued where I'd left off with season 3 of G1. As it is, however, there are so many series of Transformers that I haven't gotten back around to where I originally started yet. I expect to finish off Masterforce, proceed to Victory, finish up where I left off with Robots In Disguise, then probably come back to Armada, etc.
@draw333: Yes, I have all these series. The original US G1 series is out now on DVD, as are several of the newer ones, such as Beast Wars, Beast Machines, Armada, Energon and Cybertron. The Japanese-exclusive series like Headmasters, Masterforce and Victory are harder to get, and it depends on your location. eg: they were released in Australia by Madman). The dub version is easier to get - you can often find them on eBay as multi-region discs, but you have to put up with the poor dub. Mine, I downloaded. Requires a lot of patience.
@Skinnyguyman123: it's an interesting series, but to be honest, if you never had the chance to see it, you shouldn't feel like you've missed out on anything. It's different than even Headmasters and Victory, with the almost complete focus on humans. It's very strange for these humans to be running around calling themselves Destrons or Cybertrons -- particularly while they're in their human form. And the novelty wears off a little, especially with the ones who look ridiculous, like Mega, Giga and Buster. It's like the world's worst Comic-Con attendees. "I couldn't make a robot costume, so I dressed up like a witch instead. But I'm still a Decepticon." It's got those unique "Japanese" qualities you'll find in many anime series, not just Transformers.
