To being I was mention when I was seven years old I was a huge Transformers fan. During a harmless field trip my class and I were taken to the local airport to see planes, etc. When we were told that we'd be seeing firetrucks I thought "O goodie big red fire trucks like in all our picture books"
My classmates and I walked around a large building in to the hanger were all the fire trucks were. I immediately froze in my tracks when I saw the firetrucks and other construction vehicles near by. Which included a dump truck and a caterpillar with the shovel. The fire trucks and other equipment were
bright green - just like
Devastator! In my child mind this was
not normal. Construction vehicles were
yellow and fire trucks were
red. I stayed at the back of the group during the whole fire saftey speech....
completely convinced we were in mortal danger! Devastator could transform at any moment!!!
Childhood - so filled with magic and wonder! To this day I call that type of green Devastator Green.
