Well, in an odd turn of events, the founder of the IRC chat room #cybertron passed his foundership on to me. Come join us in Transformers conversation. You can download the IRC software at www.mirc.com. After installing the software, select a Dalnet server to connect to and type "/join #cybertron" on the command line. Hope to see you all there :-)

Removed JFoster's fan movies at his request. I hope you all enjoyed his work and I'd like to publicly thank JFoster for providing his great animation. It was a great addition to this page and will be greatly missed. I'd also like to thank anyone who took to time to e-mail him with your comments and/or suggestions. He really appreciated it alot as did I.
4\8\01
Added a whole bunch of TF puzzles which you can piece together online. These puzzles were created by me using Jigzone. The graphic art comes from a variety of different sources including UK video covers, laserdisc box art, toy box art, and last but not least, some of the wonderful images brilliantly illustrated by Dan "The Art Guy" Khanna (visit his webpage at http://bubblegum.parsons.edu/%7Eartguy/index.html)
3\19\01
Added 2 new games to the Emulation section.....Roller Vs Stunticons (a hack of the Nintendo game Spy Hunter) and Jetfire (a hack of the Japanese Nintendo game Macross).
3\10\01
Finally got some new stuff up. I added a >Message Board to the menu where you can discuss a bunch of different things. A free registration is required and shouldn't take more than a minute or 2. I also added the Car Robots intro and outro themes (provided by Gyumaoh@aol.com) to the Sound Archive. That's it for now, enjoy :-)
3\5\01
The Fan Movies are back up and running as are some of the Miscellaneous Movies. More on the way with a slight possibility of weekly and/or monthly rotating episode downloads. Stay tuned :-)
3\4\01
Well, finally some good news. I broke down and decided to purchase a little more storage space on my domain server so ALL the files that I removed a few months ago should all be back up within the next few days. Currently, I have the entire Sound Archive and Picture Archive completely re-upped (so I hope...if anyone finds any defunct links, please lemme know). The rest should be up shortly and hopefully some new stuff as well if I have the time. Again, thanks to everyone for your continued support. It was much appreciated :-)
2\13\01
Well, as its come to be, I changed my URL a little while back. I now have a domain name and the URL is http://www.tfrid.com. Second, since I have e-mail addresses as part of the package, I decided to use 1 since my RCN account may not be around much longer so my new address is rockman666@tfrid.com.  That's it for now, more to come soon including a little remodeling of the site design.
1\5\01
Well, its come down to the wire. I'm having to convert my site to a Yahoo domain and am being limited on disk storage space. I've removed half the links in the movie archive, all the links in the picture archive, and all the MP3 links in the sounds archive temporarily. When I get some time, I will upload files to a new storage place (probably one you need to register to use...free of charge of course). Sorry for the inconvience. If anyone is wanting a particular file, you can e-mail me and I will send it to you assuming your e-mail box handles files that big.  If it makes anyone feel better, we could all mail Yahoo a box of poop to let tham know what we think of them :-) Thanks to everyone for your continued support. It's very much appreciated. Without you guys, there'd be no motivation to even attempt to keep this site going.
11\22\00
Well, I'm finally getting around to another update and sad to say, I'm removing stuff. Thanks to the piece of slag known as Yahoo (who bought out Simplenet), I am forced to convert my site to a Yahoo domain (which means my current URL will be changing also) between now and January 15th which will limit me to 100MB of storage space. But fear not, I am looking into signing up for a few of those free storage accounts like Myspace, JustOn, KTurn, etc. and will most likely post whatever I remove to those places. Of course, it will be a little more inconvient for everyone having to sign up to these places just to download larger files from my site but under the circumstances, I guess its better than having nothing at all. Anyway, the first things to go are the Real Media commercial files in the Movie Archive. I probably won't even bother posting those again since MPG's of them are still up and running thanks to Brendan Reilly. I appreciate everyone's support. If anyone has any other ideas for ALOT of storage space, feel free to e-mail me at rockman666@rcn.com. Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving :-)
9\1\00
Yay, I finally managed to do an update to the picture archive and news section. More to come :-)

Well, sorry to say that I'm not adding anything today. I'm just informing everyone that I have stopped selling Transformers/80's/90's episodes for the time being. It took me a while to come to a decision on this. If anyone needs TF episodes, you can contact Tony Davis (his webpage is offline at the moment). For 80's episodes, you can contact Katie Reichert (her webpage is http://www.geocities.com/TelevisionCity/Set/5273/).  Any e-mails that I receive from people asking me to make an exception for them or that in any way pertain to this matter will be disregarded and ignored. Thanks to everyone who has supported me on this. I appreciate it :-)

Added the Japanese commercials to the movie archive once again. The server they are on is a bit unstable at the moment. If you can't get through to the commercials, do NOT e-mail me with complaints as I will disregard all of those e-mails. I recommend using GetRight to get them. There is a link to the shareware available. If it doesn't work at the time you try, just have GetRight keep trying. That's the best advice I could give ya.

2\17\99
Well, after almost 2 years of having a webpage, I finally decided to put up a "what's new" section. I've recently gone nuts with my scanner and did a whole mess of pics from various things in my collection such as laserdisc art/booklets, UK/US comics, storybooks, video cover arts from all over the world, etc. The picture archive is definitely worth a look.  About 2 weeks ago, Brendan from the TF Archive and I got talking and decided to merge together to create a huge movie archive. We're still working on that now.
Just yesterday, I changed the background art of my page. I hope everyone likes the selection I've chosen. It is a scan I made from the new laserdisc, Autobot Edition, which is a re-release of the old Convoy laserdisc from Japan.  In the near future, I plan to post MP3's of the intro/outro songs to all the Transformers TV series'.  I update my page regularly so check back for new additions. If anyone has any suggestions or has something that I might be interested in posting on my page, feel free to e-mail me at Rockman666@aol.com.
