Eat it, Voltron geeks!


And thus they are defined. Scott Johnson's Flickr set of 56 geeks makes the important differentiation between being a fan of robots and being a fan of Transformers. Robot fandom is comprised of people with an interest in robotics and engineering that makes them valuable contributing members of society. Transformers fandom is comprised of people with an interest in twenty year old cartoon robots and plastic toys that makes them valuable contributing members to Botcon's bottom line.
