[Jimbo]

We had animorphs over here it was kinda pants, guess the books not much better.

There was also a show over here called the prince of Atlantis, it was about race of sea dwelling creatures trying to defend their home. They come across a drowned human and use magic to bring him back as a half human half orca, he was able to change form just by being in the water.

Theres more. But I want to hear about the shows you enjoyed.

The books were scads better than the tv show actually. although the tf content was usually focused very strongly on the grotesque and disgusting facets of transforming into animals, so not really something I got off to. Anyway everybody already mentioned most of what I was going to recommend (TMNT, Gargoyles, etc).

There have been lots of transformations over the years, but the oldest one that really sticks out to me as "transformation" driven is one most of you probably won't recognize. There was a short lived Comic Strip cartoon Tiger Sharks in the US. It's way too "poof" by standards now, but I think it may be the catalyst point for me.

There are others that had single event transformations, such as the Elisa in Gargoyles a few years later that shifted it from interest to fascination but this was the first one that really clicked. (I discount the more tame transformations of He-man and She-ra, not to mention the transformers / gobots.)
