Toy Story

On the train today I saw a little boy holding a brand new, sealed action figure. It seemed to be one of those mech bot thingies, which totally stirred up some old memories. When I was his age and still living in China, my dad sent me a Transformer action figure that he bought in the US. I don't even remember which character it was suppose to be now, but I will never forget my struggle to understand how the thing I had in my hand could be assembled into something that remotely resembled what was drawn on the box. After staring at the then meaningless English instructions for a long time, I finally figured out that my dad only sent me the Transformer's leg!! To actually assemble the damn robot I would have needed 3 or 4 other pieces!! Foolish adults!!
