>>56086280The first memory was some cartoon (idk the name) where two thugs jumped a girl and her friend(male), she grew thorns and then became a huge plant monster (though I've never cared for plants)
Another was Willow and the scene where the witch screams from her tower "you are all pigs!" and people below become pigs in agonizing pain, and then run around like mindless animals. Saw that single scene on TV and it terrified me. (I've never fantasized about any TF related to pigs, ever)
Anither one was in Heroes III Armageddon's Blade, Dragon's Blood campaign, where the hero Mutare eventually transforms into a dragon in an animation sequence which was really fucking good for its time and budget. In the next mission she even had a unique dragon portrait and the story told about her checking out her new claws. I wasn't scared, I was fascinated and so damn envious. And hard, duh.
Other honorable mentions would be covers of Animorphs, featured in Donald Duck magazines; Remus Lupin TF scene in Harry Potter 3 film (and the concept of shapeshifting wizards like McGonagall) etc
Went downhill when I found out WoW had a class of shapeshifters and you could become a bird. I happily lived out my fantasy. Later I looked for fitting shapeshifting art (brought me to DA which wasn't dogshit at that time) and it was over
