Over on the Gatchaman Archive site, one of our discussions kinda morphed into us posting piccies of us way back when we were nothing but Gatchatots. It has been fun to see all the awesome 70's wear we had...I thought it might be a fun topic to comtinue over here. So what did we all look like," back in the day", when we were watching BOTP for the first time???
I will ask my mum for a photo but hopefully you won't see me as a Gatchatot.

My parents put all their photos in the attic. Then it turned out they had a leak in their roof, and it ruined 40+ years worth of photos. Bleh.
But at least they got the leak fixed eventually.
LOL! Here's Cep in his "Gatchatot" days...heehee
awwww...Meridian...that's awful...none of the photos survived? 
Your parents must have been devastated. My piccies are my prize possessions...I have to retrieve one from my Mom's house this weekend.
There are some really embarrassing ones in her albums.My brothers even had the "page boy" hairdos. Everyone thought they were little girls! 
Yarrrr!!!!
Me Dads actually scanning and printing off copies of all his Dads and me Mams Dads photographs. Some are real ancient. Be great to have them backup somewhere 
Its a real shame about those photos of your parents MD, I would be really devestated to lose such memories.

Awww... come on, Metalliant...we promise we won't call you a Gatchatot...or a tater tot, for that matter...although, they are awfully good with ketchup.

There is a photo of my borther in the 80s with his mulet. There also photos of my 2 nieces when they were babies doing Karate moves and also I have a picture of me as a toddler with blonde hair and not the red hair I had later on.

Be great to have them backup somewhereI have seen the photos of my parents and grandparents. The photos of my dad with hair and sideburns freaks me out, as does the photo of my mum with a beehive type hairstyle. The black and white ones of my mum's parents did look ancient. There is a funny one of my grandfather's dog chasing my brother when he was a toddler (excluding the mullet he will have as a teenager).

Ahhhhh...mullets...the awesome redneck hairdo...The best one I ever saw was Dog, the Bounty Hunter's...this guy wouldn't be the same without it!
My brother's mullet WASN'T THAT BIG. Thank god. A ginger mullet.
I had a mullet for quit some time and I loved it. Does that mean I'm a weirdo??? If so I'll resemble that remark!!!

Beware, the mullet is coming back.
Oh no?? Again?? 
I have a pic when I was a veeeeeery cute litte girl, I'd have to scan it. Really I'd have to scan all the pix my parents took with a polaroid, some of them are fading. Such a terrible piece of crap that camera was.

I wasn't too bad back then either, just wonder what happened to it all!

Ok, I finally nabbed a few piccies from mom...here I am... in the days when I was wishing I had a birdstyle and wristband like Princess! One of the pics shows my brothers with a couple of friends, when they were into breakdancing! I use to rap "Jam on It" for them so they could breakddance to it! How embarrassing... My bros are the two in the checkerboard painter's caps...LOL
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. How cute you are.
Yeah Springie pics..... contemplates swiping the scanner from the other computer for this one... muwawawawa
Where are those piccies, Gatchgirl...and everyone else, too??? Springie taps her foot, waiting to see more "Gatchatots"...
heehee...thanks Metalliant! But the sentence should read, "How cute you WERE!" You should see the older pics...when I was around 14...I wanted "wings"...they chopped my hair off and it curled up tight...I looked like Little Orphan Annie...LOL! Took me forever to grow it back out!!!
I will try to scan aphoto that I have when I was 4 but I am not too sure if it will work..........
how are we supposed to send pics on this site again??? my mind has let it slip
first you do this and then you do that and then Bob's your uncle, you have send pics to this wonderful website.
GG you can either attach them using the full reply mode (press the reply button rather then using quickreply)
or
You can post them in the Gallery.
I have a picture of myself in infant school, must have been about 5ish but I'm too cute and adorable, if I were to post it there would be a mass flood of old ladies grabbing my cheek and saying "what a lovely young boy"
*shudders from nightmarish memories*
Would it be a the 5th key in from the left? I hate being computer illiterate, and my other half gets irratated if I ask him.
Awww...c'mon...let's see the "cheeks"...they must have been pretty pinchable!!!

Hmmmm..... Springie was the only one brave enough to post here..... where is everyone else? 
My mum lost the pics (not sure if that is good or bad)
Just so Springie doesn't feel alone posting pics and I already posted these over at Gatchaman Archives anyways so here goes nothing... 
A very young me:
Me in the 70s:
A more current me (even if it is about 3 years old now):

Yeah!! Thanks, Tim! 
I love the piccie of you eating the donut...so cute!! Is that speed racer on your shirt in the second pic? Teehee...
That last pic is a great one, too...should we call you "Sexy Sosai"now?

LOL! I don't know what I was eating back then but I think it was a Delicious Apple. I used to love Delicious Apples as a kid. Now I prefer Green Apples.
That's not Speed Racer on my shirt... it is a generic race car. I didn't get to see Speed Racer until a couple of years ago.
As for me being 'Sexy Sosai'... probably not. These days the only Gatchaman suit I could fit into is Ryu's. *grin*

Heehee...Oh yeah...now that I look back at it, it is an apple isn't it? I must have a little Ryu in me as well...donuts on the brain...heehee...

You were a cute kid Sosai! I have only ever posted a couple of me here, but not anywhere else.
These days I need to get back to workout to get my figure back. I have just piled on the weight, and since I quit work I have put on more.Agghhh... too much of the good life. But I have a jogger pram now, fit ball and weights so by this time next year I hope to be much fitter.
I used to go to the gym up until a year ago with a personal trainer. When you stop, it all falls to pieces...
You look like a happy person from your pics Sosai...
Hey, Tim, didn't you say you had grandkids?? How can that be?????? (maybe I'm making that up, but I could have sworn you said something like that!

I'm older than I look. *just kidding* Actually, the grandkids are my wife's from a previous marriage (I'm with an older woman). I'm a step-granddad... actually officially I'm a step-great-granddad. My wife has two great-grandkids with another on the way!
