My friend Sugu and I discuss one of our favorite toys and characters, Optimus Prime, on the first episode of The Shelf Warmers. We also discuss collecting Transformers in Japan, the traumatizing opening of a certain animated movie in 1986, and lots of other stuff.

Here are some links referenced in the podcast:
